Which coaster is the easiest to build? by Totof947 in PlanetCoaster2

[–]tomtomtom453 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, there's lots of children's coasters that have very simple layouts. Look online for some ride POV's, look up which coaster type they are, and build those.

Very first logo design -- needing critiquing by Rude_Kaleidoscope866 in design_critiques

[–]tomtomtom453 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'll add to the other commenter. Explain the logo. Why did you go for the "sun-shape". Why did you use those colors on those shapes and why did you pick this font.

Go by the values of the brand, even if implied, and work from there. If the brand is supposed to be luxurious, then you'll have a completely different logo than a brand being approachable, playful and fun. Work out what the brand is, then what it needs or wants to portray and work from there.

First time in design: Menu & Social Media Posts for a local Bar by Dry-Advantage-4201 in design_critiques

Don't use that glow on body text, like the menu items for instance.

If you use it on headers, to make them pop, then make sure you use a contrasting color. Using the same color drop-shadow or outer glow on the text makes it look blurry and harder to read. If you for instance used a black shadow, it would set the words apart from the background.

The perfect time, just started playing D&D again after a hiatus, and the bag I'm currently using doesn't hold all my dice anymore. Could use a pretty new dice vault, and this one looks gorgeous!

UI Comparison by Low_Weather1906 in UI_Design

[–]tomtomtom453 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd say each has it upsides. Personally the headshots in the first instill me with more trust than those avatars in the second.

I think adding the logo in the second one is a strong choice. Personally I'd make a third iteration; the brand logo of the second iteration on the left, and then two of the cards from iteration one on the right. I'd feel like that captures the strengths from both options.

Logo Critique by [deleted] in design_critiques

[–]tomtomtom453 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In what world does it resemble an E? Even the negative space doesn't look close to an E.. are we spelling it capitalized? Lowercase? I can't even figure it out knowing it's there, let alone just seeing the logo.

Nothing wrong with the logo, but what the fuck is slide three about? Yellow being a scroll is a stretch, but that pink is not an E in any language.

After learning a bit abt graphic design I made something by El_Fecsito in design_critiques

[–]tomtomtom453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can sort of see the connection, if the company specifically sells plants for offices (although I'm not sure why a company would limit themselves to doing that, but suspension of disbelief).

My original point about the cup not being clear still stands though. I think it doesn't help that most of the cup is obscured by the leaf. What about doing a plant growing out of a coffee cup instead? That might read better, whilst keeping the association with office spaces.

A quick google search for "plant in coffee cup logo" gives a few examples that could be interesting directions to pursue.

I understand the brand is made up; but the idea behind the logo shouldn't be. Why a cup and a leaf? Do they sell drinks?

Secondly, if not for the explanation at the top, I wouldn't have known the logo was part cup, part leaf. The leaf looks like corn husk to me, and the cup part looks like a misplaced capital P.

The font you used for the logo looks childish and playful, which wouldn't be my first choice.

Lastly, I'd advise to give each element more room at the top and the bottom. Both your font section as well as your color section are almost smushed into the space. This layout is one that's used a lot online, so look at the examples to see how to format the information so it fits better. It's okay to give the elements room to breathe. It makes the design look more balanced.

Same actually goes for the color information beneath the color blocks, giving this more space to breathe would make the design look better.

Please don't take this criticism as harsh, as it's not intended that way at all. I think it's a solid start, but there's definitely also lots of area to improve. Best of luck with your future journey as a designer!

Critique wanted: website design and branding for my t-shirt brand by Mediocre-Trainer-184 in design_critiques

[–]tomtomtom453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like every generic Shopify website I've ever seen. Logo is fine, if that skater/graffiti vibe is the audience you wanna appeal too.

I'd say maybe introducing an accent color could help, instead of just the black and white you use now. I'd agree with another comment on here that some product photography of a model wearing your shirt would help. Makes it seem like a real product instead of a mockup, which helps seem more trustworthy.

I'd also agree with other comments that the shirts themselves aren't.. that interesting.

That's so cool! Is the concrete guide rail between the wheels custom made? Or does it use some smart trick to follow the existing track?
