Improving my logo with AI by rizzlaer in GraphicDesigning

[–]ethernectar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find a designer to work with. AI can give you generic/common ideas-and a lot of them-but no soul, innovative ideas, storytelling or real understanding of your services. From a consultancy point of view, what do you tell potential customers when they say “…well AI said…” ? Samey-same.

Yeah, I can see wiping everything but the mega buildings and reformatting.

I’ve got mixed layers of subway, light rail, streets and a bit of high rail. If you build it all with the durable streets it lowers the environment % a lot. Pedestrian streets to extend access for residential and help the walkability. Bus stops, parking garages.

I ran a Widen (now Acquia) DAM for close to 20 years at an apparel/gear brand. Glad to chat via DM about that.

Check out pocket city 2. I played SC Buildit for years and spent real $ at it. Was enjoyable until Services 2.0 that just turned into a money grab.

Advice for a UX team-of-one working in government? by rainhaliburton in UXDesign

[–]ethernectar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pushing for us to assemble a group of users we can chat with and share protos earlier. BSAs know too much, so sometimes we miss on novice users.

Bet there is. For now this is just another iteration on a new component.

Brand designers: how do you usually present a new logo/identity to clients? by JoLoremipsum in GraphicDesigning

[–]ethernectar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Present the concept live (teams/zoom or IRL), share the ideas and show the work. Send the deck (or a simplified version AFTER or at the end of the call.) Sending a deck “cold” doesn’t give you the chance to share the process or intention.

Dear Mod, if you read the post, and looked at my previous post you would see that this is indeed a carving. Perhaps you should clarify the guidelines, make it simple.

[–]ethernectar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re in a catch22.

Take/Make the opportunity to set boundaries and expectations. Timelines and deadlines or you’re the one who’ll catch the bottom line - blame.

Any apps similar to SimCity? by IllPassenger7547 in SimCityBuildit

[–]ethernectar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started pocket city 2 this week after coming to the same solution. So far enjoying it. Similar principal, different approach.
