The answer I linked is saying to design everything in RGB for a print piece... I REALLY don't trust that...

A: How could I adjust a design color scheme to account for paper color?

endoseMatch the colored paper with cmyk colour samples and create a layer matching the colour values in Ps (if this is what you are using). Set the layout to show cmyk colours and gamut warnings and design to your hearts content. Just make sure you are not designing in cmyk mode, be sure to design in...

It was like that for like an hour
Feb 1, 2014 17:35

The graphic novel was beautiful.

@Scott The book was amazing. Orson Scott Card is a douche tho.
Jan 29, 2014 19:36
yeah
Jan 29, 2014 18:52
I assumed it was homework lol but it was meant to be an in class exercise
Jan 29, 2014 18:40
But then again, I did the assignment the night before
Jan 29, 2014 18:40
It went ok. A lot of people came up with the same ideas. I was the only one that did all of the words lol everyone else did 1 or 2.
Jan 29, 2014 18:26
hey

Well, so far, all my outside study of typography has been more than enough lol
Jan 29, 2014 04:07
If I were the teacher, I would be like, "This class isn't about learning this. I'll post a few tutorials online, but it's your guys' responsibility to know this already"
Jan 29, 2014 04:07
And it sucks because a prereq for the class was learning photoshop, indesign and illustrator.
Jan 29, 2014 04:05
So far it's been "Lets learn how to use InDesign"
Jan 29, 2014 04:05
Well, I thought it would be kind of an in depth look at typography and the analysis of type and how it pertains to design. How it can improve or impede a design, etc.
Jan 29, 2014 04:03
So...... typography class isn't what I expected lol.
Jan 27, 2014 20:46
If it's not on mobile, I don't think you should add the extra click.

Here's an interesting link that shows the history of some common UI elements:
Jan 21, 2014 22:28
Obviously they aren't part of the word... but what I meant to say was why aren't they kerned like normal?
Jan 21, 2014 22:25
Why does it seem that Question Marks aren't kerned? Are they not considered part of a word when creating a display?
Jan 21, 2014 22:24
Sorry hit caps... lol
Jan 21, 2014 22:24
ANOTHER KERNING QUESTION!
Jan 21, 2014 21:49
Much better!
Jan 21, 2014 21:42
I didn't mean for you to delete it lol.
Jan 21, 2014 21:35
I'm adding a comment. Your graphic is good, but it doesn't really answer the question.
Jan 21, 2014 21:30
Correct answers can include the NBC tone.
Jan 21, 2014 21:26
I just added the question, lol. You were right.
Jan 21, 2014 21:26

Jan 21, 2014 21:26
I wanted a clever title!
Jan 21, 2014 21:25
on GD.SE
Jan 21, 2014 21:25
I just asked a kerning question, lol
Jan 21, 2014 21:23
I asked the question properly. Maybe @Gramps can take a look ;P
Jan 21, 2014 21:07
Why is there so much space between 'n' and 'e' and so little space between 'X' and 'y'?
Jan 21, 2014 21:07
Xylophone was my downfall.
Jan 21, 2014 21:07
79 out of 100... :(
Jan 21, 2014 21:01
I kind of suck at this game lol
Jan 21, 2014 20:54
Oh, I've played that game. i got like an 89% my first go. But sometimes, I don't see what others are seeing when they choose their kerning pairs.
Jan 21, 2014 20:51
I honestly don't know what I'm going to learn in my class. My limited knowledge of typography is just the elements that make up a typeface.
Jan 21, 2014 20:47
Of course! I'll post it in the group critique. And I'm sure I'll have kerning questions.
Jan 21, 2014 20:45
Too many Matts in the kitchen.
Jan 21, 2014 20:44
sits with twinkling eyes yes grandpa, do tell us a story!
Jan 21, 2014 20:42
REVEAL YOUR SECRETS
Jan 21, 2014 20:42
I hate seeing (removed)...
Jan 21, 2014 20:39
Cause if he isn't he's confusing me lol
Jan 21, 2014 20:39
Is Gramps Mat 2.1?
Jan 21, 2014 20:39
If your job has anything to do with print or graphic design, I'd make that trade lol
Jan 21, 2014 20:38
Wait, this isn't valentines day...
