How are my graphic design skills?

Not bad, but you wouldn't earn money from that.

I enjoy your use of photoshop filters

I used about 20 and then messed with them a bit to get that bacteria effect. Originally it was a photo of my estate from my bedroom window.

Assuming it's an album cover, which side is the front?

They're seperate. The one at the top is for My EP 'Logic' and the bottom one is for My submissions for Rainbow & Rooted, yet both keeping the same theme of "weird red bloody house stuff with seemingly hidden meaning".

Your ability to slap filters and effects together is unparalleled.

Your graphic design skills are awful.

Sounds about right.

It's not that bad, is it?

I dunno, I think it's alright, but then again, I know nothing about graphics design.

I know fuck all about graphics design so I'm gonna say it looks cool.

There's a difference between looking cool and looking well-designed.

This is certainly the former, though.

Yeah, I think exactly the same

looks alright man. experiment. expand your knowledge.

Basically what Manco said. Slapping some embossing filters on a free font is unprofessional, and you'd never see it in real li--



Oh.



No, but really. The key to good graphic design is contrast and clarity. I see a sea of crimson nothing with some filters slapped on it. Try harder.

It wasn't a free font, you know.

If you paid for that font, then you better make it sparkle.
Twilight sparkle.

That isn't the font itself, I edited it and changed it Especially the E. I'm proud of the E. I designed it in maths. It literally took me the whole lesson to come up with that E.

I'm really hoping that it was only a stupid-vampire-romance film refference.

I can show you if you like?

No, no you can't.

Actually, he can, but he may not, according to you.

If you're going to be an arse at least do it properly.

It looks nice, and I mean, contrary to what the overall tone seems to be, that's obviously FUCKING IMPORTANT IN GRAPHIC DESIGN.

So yeah, it can be better, but goddamn if that isn't what practice is for.

Honestly, I've bought albums with worse covers than that.

i like the colour and the logo on the second picture, but the font, its effect and the filter don't do it for me

keep at it

Not bad, but it could be better.

Looks like the shit people did in some graphic design class I had last year of highschool.

You've really got to take the dubstep audience into account. Most of them will probably like the grimy look, even if it is a bit cut-and-paste.

Oh yeah.

In that case it's perfect.

i think it looks ok

Look at the spacing between the sections of the E. The middle is too long and the gap between the "base" and the top/bottom lines is waaay too big.

Like your music, I'm proud that you're doing something new and productive... really. Your graphic design skills can definitely be improved on (although I'm not particularly good at the thing myself,) but like everyone (unless you're a fucking prodigy) you're gonna hear this often.

My advice to you, now, would be to spend some time analyzing and critiquing your own work first and try and find something you don't like about it, and believe me you will, and see how you can improve on it. Who knows? You might learn an easy, but effective and essential technique that can then be applied to your next project.

But fair play, dude. Keep it up.
