I don't know how far you wan't to go into design movements and things but if you are looking for inspiration on typography / layouts / styles etc then personally I love drawing from the Bauhaus movement.

People like Herbert Bayer made great use of simplistic design to produce some stunning things in my opinion.


I love modernism in Graphic design

Here is the code line you will need to put into your sig space to make the graphic work;

Just remove the spaces in the code line to make it all one line, and hit submit. It should give you the image and the link all in one hit.

I love the clean lines portrayed in the style you reference.

Where I am at right now is defining my own "style". While I do have occasional need of engineering an image for promotional needs, etc, the majority of what I am doing here at this time is actual "art". Toying with colors, textures, contrasts, and various effects.

And glancing over what I have done, i can see a definite "artistic style" begininning to develop. Should i fight against this to avoid predictability and ensure utility and usefulness? Or should I embrace it and continue down the path I am on?

This is a question I have asked myself over the last couple of days. And one I have yet to answer.

I would suppose that i will continue to move around, toying with different styles. I actually spent about a 2 weeks toying with nouveau concepts. It is entirely possible that I will move into other areas of art as well.

Thanks for point that specific thought out to me.

I love the avatar you made me. But if you want you could tweak with it and use maybe some of your new concepts Maybe have the eye have black fur around it as if like a human werewolf You can tweak with the green eye if you want and find any design that screams at you in place of the lightning Go ahead and work your magic

If Druid doesn't say "uncle", the wolf is getting Groucho Marx glasses and mustache next.

Really?

reply to post by 74Templar

I can see this going south pretty quick.... I quadruple dog dare you....

OMG! Sacrilege!

reply to post by Zarniwoop

I'm sorry, I just can't do that to a friend.

Awww.

Regardless of whatever vile wolf avatar desecration you guys may or may not have been planning, you still remain some of the best graphic artists on ATS!

However, it is obvious I will have to keep my eye on you three.

Dammit... I can see my scholar posting quota going up to 20 or so posts minimum in my near future....

I shoulda saved the image before he changed it. It was pretty darned funny.

reply to post by bigfatfurrytexan


I'm suuuure he still has it. It's not something I want to see.

Good thing I wasn't online at the time.

reply to post by 74Templar


You're safe. You didn't make the image. Zarn, however, should watch his p's and q's.

All in good fun. You guys are great.

If you were online, and said "uncle" like I asked, no one would have seen it

Plus, I was both triple and quadruple dog dared, so...



It wasn't so bad... The wolf can pull off any look
