[QUOTE=Prollgurke;39401594]Just some typo stuff which was supposed to look good. All in all its supposed to be a signature banner but it looks like you people dont like it. Well, no problem. :-)[/QUOTE]
It just looks like every signature ever. Which is not a good thing, they are also very seldomly any creative and is as such quite loathed on by most people.
It's that typical thing to make when you're new to Photoshop, I've made a bunch of them myself. It's comparative to scrap metal, it's just something that exists and makes clutter. (there is nothing worse than a forum that has signatures enabled, especially when it supports images and you see a bazillion of signature images on every thread)

Logo for a fictional design company. The smaller red square is a vertically-scaled hyphen. I know there's a square bullet character somewhere but I couldn't find it. :v:
kerning between both sides of the hyphen between "sixsided" and "design" seems fucked. i like the concept though.
holy shit freelance design is cool
someone asked for a logo that said "fresh bandits" with no background info, so of course I thought of fedoras
I sent him this:

as a joke, but he loved it and requested this:

and now I'm getting paid!
I was just wondering if anyone knew of the post or thread from a few months ago that had a bunch of useful links to websites. These websites had resources for graphic designers like subtle backgrounds, fonts, color pickers and a lot more. I'm not sure if it was in creationism corner or the web development section. If anyone remembers could you redirect me in the right direction. Thanks

I'm not sure what the actual sites from that thread were, but here's some good resources for colour palettes.

Most of these cost of course. But they're useful for finding new fonts.

I haven't done much with Photoshop painting so I thought I'd give it another whirl for this one.
Also I'm really confused because my stuff on my iMac looks COMPLETELY different than on pretty much everyone else's computer. Everything has way more contrast and saturation on the iMac.
But what is on the iMac is more accurate to what actually prints so I hesitate to say which one is incorrect.

Tightened it up a bit and fixed the vertical alignment. Any better?
yeah

Yes people do, but if it's a serious project I'd suggest making a new thread for it. They get a lot more attention that way.

Part of a UI for a GMod gamemode mod thing that I don't entirely understand. It was requested by a guy who saw [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1102983&p=38826600&viewfull=1#post38826600"]this[/URL] post, so I'm guessing he likes this style though. Or maybe I'm just the only one who agreed to make it for free.
looks good! makes me think communist a bit (slightly cyrillic big font and the red star top left) but if that's what the guy wants then spot on. colours are good, layout - although i know nothing about how it would work functionally, aesthetically it's fine. the content font could be a little more interesting though.
[sub][sub]but you shouldn't ever work for free, especially when it's not someone you know[/sub][/sub]
Communist definitely wasn't the desired look. :v: Anyway, I showed it to him and we spent around two hours tweaking stuff.
This is the design that he settled on--

I don't have any intention of trying to force him to use the one I like, but I'm curious if I'm wrong in liking the second one more. Which one do you people prefer?

The different shades of blue on the bars look a bit odd but overall I prefer it without the outlines.
Way better without the outlines.
Much more cleaner.
the second one is much better, but i don't like the colour scheme half as much as the (very) first. at least with that they all tied in together but now it's just grey and black and better-stick-some-colour-in-there-let's-go-with.............. blue!

A mix of the two. I have no idea why you felt like adding 3 stripes of colours in your version. Tinting the black, removing outlines are good though. I dislike the X button in both versions.
I also don't think the layout has any style at all, it's just a bunch of rectangles and a random colour. I hope that this is just the wireframe and that graphics will be applied to it.
I wish the second ones had the same consistency as the first one.
All the different colors actually go with each other and the design in general looks much tighter (mostly because the X button looks like it's floating away in the newer ones)

On the second version, it's just there because I thought the design looked even more like a lifeless collection of boxes without them. Unfortunately there aren't any graphics to apply to it; I guess screenshots could be used, but I don't really think the colors would match.
Anyway, I tried to fix it.

I'd say go with the old design because it suits the environment more, the blue doesn't look inviting when you first open it.

This is literally [B]one of my first times[/B] touching photoshop, and I'm starting to get into graphic design. Here's a wallpaper I did in about an hour or so.

I've been working some neat holographic GUIs for source, decided to convert one into a standard 2D desktop.

They look better ingame.

They're really cool
Although with heaps of screens in one area it seems a bit messy and overbearing
Maybe turn down the opacity a tad?

it's okay i guess, but to me it just... it't just an S, an E and a bolt. and it's a push to call the S and the Es that because they're pretty distorted. not a big fan i'm afraid!
at the very least tighten up the kerning between P and A, it's huuge
