If you don't like my graphics, I highly recommend checking out Usagi's shop or SolarGale's shop. They're far better than I.
Woah. Come on, Rekx! Believe in yourself! Stop doubting and cutting yourself short; if you believe you will achieve. I think your graphics are great, and you have the potential there to be great at this, just don't give up on yourself about your abilities. Remember that.

Yeah, I'm not bad. But I'm definitely not as good as either of you! However, I've vastly improved since I first started in Paint.NET.

Ahh, I remember my paint.net days ^_^

Love your title logo btw, excellent choice of colour scheme, style and fonts there, i'm sure many will like your work, at least for what I see I already do!

As Usagi said, you really shouldn't cut yourself short, one tip I will give is to add a couple more examples, trying to vary the themes a little, aside from that, good luck on the requests, I'm sure some will come your way! :3

Alrighty then. I've updated the main post with some more examples. They're old and I've improved drastically since then, but they're some of my best (and I use that term lightly) work.

Hey first request I believe.

HEADER TEXT: Tri-Rips

SUBHEADER TEXT: Productions

OTHER INFORMATION: I want three colors chasing each other around in a circle or some sort of trinity style logo using three colors.

COLOR SCHEME: Primary if not secondary colors of the color wheel.

TYPE: Logo

SIZE: Any size that fits a 544,416 screen.

GAME TOPIC: Not one since this is a studio logo.

Thanks for the shop. We support this shop check our sig.

Also to be clear the logo made for us by Usagi is a game logo and this is a studio logo since our main game is named after our studio we do not want you to think we are multi requesting thanks.

Is there a point in your workflow where you find the Saturation slider and crank it up to eleven? Other issues aside, your colours are ridiculously bright, to the point where things are difficult to read.

11. DON'T post in this topic if it does not have to do with requesting something or has something to do with your request. Private Message me if you wish to speak to me otherwise, I do not want my topic cluttered with completely unrelated posts.

Woah, Rekx. Calm down. Why aren't you accepting constructive criticism? He is only helping you, and I personally thing this rule is ridiculous. Are people not allowed to say that your logos are great on your thread or is it just when they say you're doing something wrong and to say it privately because of your 'status' or whatever? :huh:

You seem to have misunderstood. They can let loose their criticisms, but it's not excruciatingly hard to private message me. Which is what I want people to do if they want to make comments.

I have the topic so people can make requests, not discussion. And I don't like sorting through pages of non-requests to find what I'm looking for.

I have no "Status", that is irrelevant to me.

I've decided to take a different approach in my graphical style, something simpler yet still nice.

what. criticism is totally related. don't be rude to people who are trying to help you.

Yes, it's very related. But I won't change my rules, they are there because of past experiences in which things did not go very well. So if you could be so kind as to either follow them as per my request, or just don't comment at all. I know this may come off as rude, but I am doing what I feel is best.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Another example for the drawing boards, get your requests while they're hot! Or cold! Whichever you prefer, really.

May you be more clear about this rule? A person may want to make small changes or correct any errors. I think good communication is very important in workshops.

Criticism is allowed on this board. If you're going to post art online then you should expect to be criticized .

If it involves a request, they just post it in the topic. I've had a number of people post in my topic, and then PM me about the same thing when they could've just used the one medium they'd used in the first place. I DON'T know why it bothers me, it's just a pet peeve.

Another who is verily confused and, of course, won't follow my instructions and PM me about it. I love criticism, really, but I want people to PM me. Is that so hard?
