still not sure about the background, if I made it white then I'd have to do the gray spray thing on the rest of the text
also not sure about the text below the title[/QUOTE]
im not sure what it says on the logo.. also if you're going for sprays then make the coloured ones bigger

-text below the title is too far down
- the grey stuff around the spray looks out of place
-the girl's pony tail looks too sharp
-I don't like the shade of grey that you used for the background, it looks weird
the grey background is a placeholder
I'll keep the text stuff in mind, also I'll get rid of the grey spots, unless you think I could put them around other things so its consistent? Either way, thanks

well it looks odd to have the grey stuff in there anyway, but once you make the splatters bigger it will look much better
you know, why don't you just move everything around? Make the girl larger and to the left side, so you'd have to re arrange the words. then think about the title. Because now I feel that the elements are like too far away from each other
also if you guys wouldn't mind checking out my thread and i dunno, giving t-shirt designs a chance?

alternate white version, would definitely be cheaper on print

depending on the paper used, the white probably wouldn't be too intrusive (maybe)

looks way better than the last one :)

i don't know how to say it dude but... i'm just gonna say it
that looks really bad.
and i think that main design is a total dead end, it can only be fixed up so much
need to start again.

this is even worse
I don't mean to sound like an asshole but you've posted some nice stuff on the forum before and
i mean, holy shit
it is really really offensive to look at from a design perspective. it's sloppy as hell and looks like a childs first photoshop
What do you recommend? I'd like to at least keep the idea of the girl and the text around her :(
what if I just toned it down?

[QUOTE=h0lgr;32193131]Nice work Smeetin. All of them feel well designed except for the Blackout one, it feels unoriginal with the shaky blur. But all the other designs look really slick and clean. Love it.
Worthy of my Artistic![/QUOTE]
Haha, ya, it was relatively generic. I was mainly focusing on making a font for that one.

[t]http://u.cubeupload.com/Signal/302Breznaslova.png[/t][/QUOTE]
the words around her going in all the different directions is very sloppy and needs some kind of visual structure
at the moment it has none
I completely disagree. I think the girl with the text is good.
Everything else is bad, yes.

Something about that actually annoys me, like really annoys me. I think it's the contrast of clean text and the graffiti logo, it just doesn't look right.
It makes indeed absolutely NO SENSE that the girl is blocky as shit, the text is completely clean and free of any serifs whilst the main title is messy, round and wet as fuck.
I also suggest you tighten up the kerning on the text and compose it so they form a square or something. Right now they pop out at different widths making it more messy going against the othewise clean look they and the illustration has. However I think you actually have to re-do the whole girl and font choice and maybe even the whole concept.
Actually, have a question.
Have you put much thought into this? Why have you chosen the style you have? Have you sketched yourself a bunch of ideas and this is the one you ended up with? No? Get to sketching. 10 ideas, 20 ideas, 50 ideas, 100 ideas. You need them. Not necessarily groundbreakingly different ideas, but just changing the font is one idea, just using the upper body of the girl making her bigger is another, maybe something completely different is a third, etc etc. Any possible variation to inspire yourself to make new ideas and eventually coming up with something much better, maybe completely different, maybe a middleground between two similar ideas.
We were working on a placeholder version (as i don't have his psd on my pc or the right fonts)
and came up with a different design.
All the fonts are placeholder and text on the girl will be fixed.
But this is something we came up when we were throwing around ideas.

[editline]9th September 2011[/editline]
again this is a messy mockup
The concept is good, but the text at different angles is very distracting
Oh and wewt doesn't have his pc atm so he said I was supposed to write:
I was on a tight schedule and I'm going to have to make this version the print one because I'm running out of time. I'll keep everything you said in mind for my next design. And he'll probably change the špric to coolvetica.
Coolvetica is a HORRIBLE font
I don't know what coolvetica is anyway, but wewt said he would love some suggestions for good fonts.
He just recently started doing design and doesn't have a lot of fonts.

Any good tutorials for Graphic Design? Thinking about doing it in school next year and i'd like to see what it's all about.

Graphic Design is a lot of things.
Movie posters.
Advert posters.
Logos.
Web design (coding web pages and making their design).
Product design.
Product containers. (how should the box/glass/whatever it's packed into be made and look?)
Animated internet or film adverts.
Or rather.
Anything that has to do with 2D adverts, product and company design/profile as well as packaging.
And a Graphical Designer should also know photography for research and resources and know how to use After Effects for film adverts (not filming, but for text, logos and such that you want to do more with than just slapping it on there).
A graphical Designer can of course specialize in just 1-3 of those things, but it will severely halt your job possibilities and make you way more unattractive in the market.
I think most of it will be illustration and web design.
[QUOTE=RedSponge;32198520]I think most of it will be illustration and web design.[/QUOTE]
Completely depends on your client.
Also all of that I listed except packaging IS illustration and web design.

why would you want a playstation theme for a phone? i don't get it
I have the Xperia Play AKA the Playstation Phone :eng101:
Playing playstation games on the go is amazing.
Windwaker Link made out of text. Made it in my Graphic Design class last year.
Sorry for the picture quality.

Weeeeeell...
I don't know if it could really be called Graphical Design when you basically filled in so much text into it that the text is almost not visible and instead just becomes like a filled colour with open spots.
