Hello do u have any tips for pixel text
i don’t do much pixel text tbh, but when i do it’s better to keep it simple if you can - especially if you’re not re-sizing (sans serif is ur friend)
on the right are just some examples of how you can make text stand out more on different backgrounds - light on dark (or vice versa dark on light) always works, but using outlines are also a good way to make text pop out a lil better
like any lettering, using guide/ruler lines is the easiest way to keep your text in proportion. If you’re using a lot of text i’d recommend drawing out an alphabet first too, then you’ve got something to work from.
I find like, angled/diagonal text or anything with a little perspective particularly annoying with pixel because it can look pretty distorted and hard to read - but you can always just step the letters if it's a flat surface ~
oh and also i nearly always do my lettering separately on the canvas (though to the right measurements!) so i can have a few variations on the go and just overlay them to see what goes best 👌👌
