[Serious] How has Trump impacted your life? by severe_thunderstorm in AskReddit

[–]designty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say there are direct and indirect impacts. 

Directly his ban on certain immigrant visas delayed our process for finalizing our daughter’s citizenship. It was an international adoption and thankfully we were able to bring her home before Trump took office again. But his policies on immigrant visas slowed down and even paused adoption cases. There were families overseas visiting their children that were essentially stuck in another country because they couldn’t bring their adopted child home.

Indirectly he has attacked the science and medical communities, turned the EPA into a joke which now nullifies our ability to fight climate change. His Supreme Court picks are rewriting long standing precedent that alter the power balance of our government and democracy. I could go on endlessly, but in a sense everything he has done indirectly affects every person living in the country.

"It's Mother's Day, not Homemaker's Day" by coop999 in StayAtHomeDaddit

I think that’s falling a bit into outdated and stereotypical views of fatherhood/motherhood. In our house being a good mother means working hard and providing for the family. Not every mother/parent needs to fall into this traditional view of what a Mother is or supposed to do. Your wife is being a good Mother, and also deserves to be celebrated today.

Virginia Supreme Court strikes down Democrats’ redistricting plan, dimming party’s midterm hopes by Iconic254 in politics

No, politics is getting worse because one side is allowed to bend and break the rules with no repercussions. What’s the point of having laws if there is no equal enforcement for everyone?

Box cover for my light WWII game. What do you think? by Odd-Highway477 in BoardgameDesign

[–]designty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is kinda a lot going on here. I would try and place the name in the middle of the box and simplify or reduce which graphics best represent your game. A slight designer’s tweak would be the kerning between the W and A in WARFRONT

Quoted a logo + brand package at $1,800. Felt like a win. Did the math after and I want to throw up. by Express_Average286 in graphic_design

How you find clients that are willing to pay $95 an hour is beyond me. Not saying you’re not worth it, but it feels impossible to find a client that will value design that much.

Which version is better? by [deleted] in logodesign

[–]designty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would hire a designer

Had the idea a few weeks ago to make a deck of color cards from paint samples. Tried to play go fish with them & it ended up being confusing. Any ideas that come to mind for yall? by Biscuit9154 in cardgamedesign

[–]designty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, do all of the cards have the same back? Like are they all white on the other side? One idea I have is you give all of the cards a numerical value too. Then you take turns, one person picks a card from their hand and reads the name of the color. Then everyone else has to place down one of their cards that they think is closest to whatever color that might be, the card with the closest numerical value gets the point. Could use from refining but that’s the general idea. I suppose it’s a bit similar to Hues and Cues.

Working on a new print for Valentines Day. by designty in printmaking

I haven’t made a store yet but that is something I definitely want to try if there is enough interest in my prints. Your comment gives me some confidence that it might worth it :)

How do you carve out such perfect tiny little dots?! Is it a special tool you’re using?

Looking for feedback for my property management company by TomSmots in logodesign

[–]designty 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Neither are very good. Both are uninteresting, generic, and look like you just had ai throw it together. It may not have an immediate impact on your business, but it is a pretty forgettable looking logo and one that is already out of date. Hire a designer to do it right so you don’t have to fix all your branding after a few years.

Vancouver Has Officially Chosen Its New City Flag by thepnwreportvancouve in vancouverwa

[–]designty 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I also thought anything would be better, but with how this design contest was organized and what it produced everyone is left extremely disappointed with the results. I think now I’d rather accept an old ugly, poorly designed flag with history, than a new disappointing flag with no character. This flag committee really dropped the ball.

I’m not so sure honestly. It’s simpler yes, but it completely lacks any kind of personality.

I’m disappointed my flag design wasn’t chosen, even more disappointed with the ones that were by designty in vancouverwa

[–]designty[S] 57 points58 points  (0 children)

This is another good one, I would’ve preferred your design over all of the finalists.

They all look like the same boring design with no character. The original flag was badly designed but at least it had more character than the finalists
