    business card

    The heart and wrench are good, but the typography is pretty messy. Splitting the text with the EKG line is disrupting the layout. Try placing the flat part of the EKG line under Auto Medic (extend the flat part on the end, and flip the line graphic as ibclare has done). I agree with ibclare...

    Another PSG war to come but lets get this resolved

    But it does have a bearing on how accurate that opinion is. You lack experience, and thus you lack knowledge and accuracy in this area. As for changing a washer on a tap, that is doing something for yourself, not having someone who claims to be qualified undercut someone who actually is, and...

    Another PSG war to come but lets get this resolved

    You've been using PS for less than a year, much less know how the design industry works and has changed over the past decade. Nothing will change if people keep giving away their skills like they are worthless. You don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, I'm done. If you want to be...

    Another PSG war to come but lets get this resolved

    The kids and retirees aren't competing with the pros Paul, but they are damaging public expectation of what design is worth. Let me explain how its currently working. If it were just kids and retired people doing simple jobs for a few dollars, it wouldn't be an issue, because the volume of...

    Another PSG war to come but lets get this resolved

    Design is bigger than just image editing. Its huge, and the problem I am speaking of is huge too. Recognising an industry problem isn't whinging, and if you were a designer by trade, you would already know this.

    Another PSG war to come but lets get this resolved

    But you are reducing the problem to this site, Paul. Its global, and side earners (people here included) should be charging the same rates as pros. They want to be guaranteed to get the job, so they charge the least, instead of getting it because they sell themselves and their services well to...

    Another PSG war to come but lets get this resolved

    There is no "again" iDad. Its been a persistent and ever increasing problem for the industry. The only people who don't understand the damage it does are those outside the industry who use design as a "side earner", and haven't experienced the demand to lower their prices because their prices...

    Another PSG war to come but lets get this resolved

    I think freebies shouldn't be completely free. There should be a donation system. If you want something done, you donate $1 to help keep the site running. I do free work for mates and family, but not strangers on the net. You do realise when you do free work, you de-value graphic design as a...

    The Blue Hour

    Very cool Chris. Good job. Only thing I would change is the sky, as the sun is at the wrong angle (behind the building) but the angle of light on the building is at the front. Also perhaps adjust the luminance levels on the building to be darker, or the sky to be brighter, as it has a slight...

    Internet Cafe | App Icon Concept

    Sure, but the lighter part of the two-tone table looks like a highlight, which is interfering with the line of the shadow and it's realism. I realise now the cup's saucer is meant to be over the table, but it doesn't appear to be. For this to be more convincing, add another, shorter shadow just...

    Do you think this pics was shopped?

    Fake. The lack of shadowing at the bottom of their shoes gives it away. Even when feet or shoes are flush against a flat man-made surface, there is a shadow, however small.

    Your Machine Specs

    As it reads - what is your rig rocking? Do you plan to upgrade? If so, to which parts, or a whole new machine? This is my baby :) Monitors: 27 inch ViewSonic 1080p + 22 inch ViewSonic 1080p in dual config. CPU: Intel Core i7 3820 @ 4.0ghz RAM: 16GB Corsair 1600mhz quad channel config...

    which one should i buy

    Firstly, make sure the laptop uses an Nvidia graphics card. AMD cards are okay for gaming, but Nvidia is built for design. Don't get any of those crappy software based graphics systems, as there will be quite a few functions you won't be able to use as Photoshop needs to use the GPU for some...

    Zombie

    Good first try. Some tips to improve the realism for next edit. The brushes or textures you have used look like they have been placed on the skin, as opposed to being a part of it. Consider playing with blend modes to make them seemless next time. Also the angle of the textures makes them look...

    Are You Inked?

    I like the bladed look of it. Its got a similar feel to the Celtic shield (have Scottish heritage) I want to get next year.

    Are You Inked?

    Nah, was thinking "F*ck Off We're Full" might be better :naughty: I wouldn't put any writing under it because it has personal meaning to me which a lot of people who also share the Cross don't understand.

    first paying job

    I used to think that. I've been using PS for 6 years, and I learn something almost every time I create a new piece, especially with the stuff I'm doing at the moment (turning people into Marvel and DC characters) because I've not done much of this specific type of editing before. If you're still...

    Are You Inked?

    This is my one tatt, but I have ideas for a few more I want to get. For those unfamiliar with it, its called The Southern Cross. A lot of people have this tatt, but not in the way I do. Most are dull blue. For me, the cross represents standing up for freedom and your rights, and black and...
