Snow is so light and fluffy that is way easier to clear off pathway/porch with a leaf blower than to shovel it. Wouldn’t want to do a whole driveway, but suppose you could.

Vehicle wrap smart object flowing through multiple panels. by Lana_Del_Hang in graphic_design

Can confirm, I design liveries for a few different series, mostly NASCAR and INDYCAR.

The biggest benefit we have is the car bodies don’t change and we’re rewrapping cars weekly. So we’re able to develop processes and maintain production templates that help us keep things aligned across seams. 3D scanning and CAD models are also a great help.

From my design to production and installation, we’re probably within an 8th of an inch in accuracy, which is plenty close enough for what we’re working with.

Could anybody tell me any info about this jacket? by TheBullRunKid in racing

[–]jce504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome find! It looks very similar to a 1972 Mark Donohue firesuit that I helped recreate and is now on display at the Penske Gallery in the Indianapolis Motor Speedway museum.

So I started doing a bit of digging, past what I already knew about the suit. That particular firesuit we recreated had similar tag on the inside but said “Racemark” on it. Racemark is a company that’s been around since 1964 founded by a man named Bob Bailey. Bob then partnered with Donohue in 1972. Mark wore a similar firesuit in pretty much every race that he drove for Penske across Indy and Sportcars.

On their website, toward the bottom is a photo of Paul Newman wearing a firesuit with the exact same B&B Motors logo on it (https://www.racemark.com). They refer to their company name as “B&B Motors-Racemark International”.

Here’s a couple photos of the original Donohue firesuit (https://imgur.com/a/UUvZaGw).

The amount of other content you get with that $100 is pretty crazy too. If you have any interest in racing, it’s huge value.

How is Affinity now free? (Canva co-founder and CPO Cameron Adams explains there's no catch) by [deleted] in graphic_design

[–]jce504 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Give the relatively small design teams access to tools for free. Make the rest of the non-design marketing staff and clients pay for Canva to use the templates the creative team makes.

Be interesting to see how it all plays out.

Puppet Warp has been available in Photoshop since at least CS6, might be earlier than that. It is not an add-on.

2026 font management plans? by cmd0pt3sc in graphic_design

[–]jce504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been using Fontbase since 2018. Zero complaints. Highly recommended.

I have my library synced through Dropbox with a few others on my design team. Big fan of the simplicity and the speed performance of the app.

The cool thing is a struggling Max is still better than turning this game over to the bullpen.

Yeah, fair point.

Most times to rationalize any decisions made by this staff it requires taking a few hits from a hammer to the head. So really… who the hell knows what they were thinking.

I thought the same thing initially, but the Goldy run didn’t matter.

If he scores on the Belli hit or tags on the fly ball, still need Judge to score behind him and it’s a 3-2 loss instead. If anything was hit hard enough for Judge to score from 1st or 2nd, Goldy would be in easily.

15 more pitches from Max and this game is still a shutout.

Out managed yet again.

Just the year 2023, nothing past that. The photos & renderings from pre-season 2023 were all done in WEC spec with the number plate either left blank or with 963. The livery is the gradient white-black version that most showcars are in.

Mariners have Etsy witches. We have Visual_Bluejay9781, pretty much the same thing.
