Hi, hope your day is going well! I wanted to ask what software and tutorials you use to design graphics please? Id really like to learn how to do that but im not sure where to start :o

also from @icarus-reaching: How do you make your graphics?

hey! i use picmonkey.com and gimp  which are both free apps/sites! i don’t use many tutorials because all of mine are super simple haha. the icons i use are from iconfinder.com or google images. 

i’m not sure how exactly to explain how i make them, i guess you just need to find your own personal style through practice. i’ve learned a lot through art classes about composition and color theory, but those aren’t necessary.

it also helps to look at others’ graphics. really look at them, and think about elements you like from their work, then add them to your own! it’s not copying unless you do the exact same everything as them, don’t worry. 

to find matching colors, i usually search up color palettes. @chromaa is a good blog for those!

i’m not very good at answering these types of questions, but @obsidianstudy​ has some really good guides!

if you have any other questions please feel free to message me!

important: do not ever feel uncomfortable about your graphics. if you don’t think they’re as good as others’ you don’t have to share them! just keep practicing and don’t give up! i’m assuming you’ve seen my post about how much i’ve improved in just one year. you can do it!

Hi there! I just wanted to ask, is the giveaway international? Cause if so I just thought I'd let you know that jetpens only ships free over 25$ in the US, anywhere else the shipping fees are pretty high (I've checked :c )

hi! no, the giveaway is only for those in the u.s. unfortunately. thanks for checking though :)
