I take it this is an art shop? Do you want any of your art in the main banner?


Yep, art shop. No need to include artwork since this shop's for developing a bunch of different styles that I don't do yet.


Gotcha. I'll start on it today. But first to clean the house! UGHHH. User Image IT'S LIKE PEOPLE TRY TO MAKE IT HARDER FOR ME.

Awesome! Thank you, I'll start the trade.

This is what I came up with for the main banner. The words gradually becoming desaturated as if, well, something is stealing the color! sweatdrop I'd appreciate feedback. Do you like it so I can continue on with the main banners or do you want something different?

This is great! The only thing I'd ask you to add is a very thin slightly darker outline (I dunno, maybe multiply 75% grey or something) around the lettering so it pops out against the bg, but otherwise everything else is fantastic. Thanks, really loving it!

If you could make the outline 1pt thick and add the bit about experimental paint shop back on, it'll be perfect. Sorry for being picky! sweatdrop Thanks so much for your speed in turnaround too!

Ahahaha. I did forget to put it back on. And you did say thin the first time around. I'm just a dolt! 4laugh Don't worry about it. You're not being picky! I'm just being "special" today. User Image

Daaa'w. Thank you. I always wanted to do graphic design but I don't think I could ever do it professionally. I absolutely hate dead lines. I feel like they'd make me lose passion with this sort of thing, ya know?

And I love Satoshi Kon, by the way. I just watched Tokyo Godfathers about a week ago. Deeelightful film. And I have mad love for Perfect Blue. It was so eerie.

Oh, yeah. Deadlines are the least of the evils though, clients and art directors will probably kill any passion you have much faster. I hope you keep doing it for yourself then!

Perfect Blue is actually the only movie of his I haven't seen. Love everything he's done though, Tokyo Godfathers is especially wonderful. Have you seen either Paranoia Agent or Paprika? He's also got a short called "Good Morning" that's just gorgeously animated.

Oh yeah I'll definitely keep at it, thanks.

I have seen PA and Paprika. I was a little confused by Paranoia Agent but I especially liked the episode with the 2 guys and the little girl who want to kill themselves. That one REALLY stuck out to me.

Paprika was absolutely gorgeous. The parade of all that random stuff was just wheeeeww!

Yeah, I wasn't completely sure of what to make of PA but I love it all the same. Definitely wish my Japanese was better so I could listen to the original intent instead of relying on other people's translations.

YES! Paprika was just insanely overloaded with amazing visuals. The special about the making of where he explains his storyboard process being translated to the screen was really great as a point of reference to see where all of his ideas were coming from too. It's just remarkable how interesting he can make his most "normal" characters look, as though you'd actually see someone like that in real life.

I haven't seen the making of but I'd like to. I really loved the tubby dude in Paprika and who woulda thought he'd get the hot chick, huh? surprised

Well at least my negative votes are getting lower. Wahahah!
