We are proud to present our second info-graphic. We are grateful to all of our visitors and contributors, without them our first photography info-graphic would never have been such a success.
This post is the first of infographics series “Did You Know”. Today we will cover the topic of Graphic Design and tell you many interesting bits and bytes from the world of graphic design. Such info is a lot of fun to just know about even if you are not a professional of this industry. And if you are a designer and you don’t know these things, it’s a sin!!
The world is a global village now, our working patterns have changed. Today, the world works like this: to attract Arab visitors, a Swiss hotel gives their redesign contract to Singapore based company which works with Bangladesh, India and Pakistan based designers.
Certainly this jet age has benefited the Swiss hotel and Bangladeshi designers but how does the Singaporean company manages all this??? What if the designer doesn’t meet a deadline? How will the Swiss guys know that how much time did you spend so they could pay appropriately? There are many such questions, but they all have one answer:
Web Based Project Management firms help you manage it all digitally, and not just for Designing related companies, in fact all kinds of businesses. Today we are introducing Apptivo’s Project Management Apps which is absolutely Free!
Trees are one of the most important things which this planet needs to survive. I don’t have to describe their importance, you know already know all about it.
Trees are so obvious around us that we don’t even notice them anymore (like your spouse) – you won’t notice them until they are missing. Today I made this post to make you notice them, to make you feel how important they are to humanity.
One the other hand, photographers can achieve great inspiration from these magnificent photos which tells us how to put a soul into a static image.
Today I have something different for you. We have been doing photo-manipulations and typographic designs but today we will create something very meaningful, yet fun with a good commercial value as well.
This is a Poster or Wallpaper design with the message to save and preserve our Eco-system. Apart from the noble message, it has quite a design value in it. You can learn a lot of tricks which guys like me pull off when we create professional graphics. Hope you’ll like my effort.
Our buddy Waseem was making a photographic collection of Fashion Photography and he asked me to write down a tutorial of Fashion Photography. This is my first article on Indoor Photography, and I’ll write in my usual style of touching the technical aspects from a newbie’s perspective.
In studio photography we have to work with props, we focus on light settings, if we don’t have a studio we create a soft box in the spare room in our home. We are so much involved in setting up these things that we completely forget about the concept. Today I have a fast-track guide on fashion photography about how to do it and what are the important elements you need to focus. Let’s begin!
During the previous month we published a tutorial for Creating a Furniture Website and Gallery Layout, I hope you followed the tutorial and made a design of your own, but if you hadn’t, we published Download Free Furniture Website and Gallery PSD Layout. This post included a Photoshop File of a web design/gallery design for a furniture or any craft maker’s website. It was in dark colors so that the displayed products look shiny.
Today I’m ready to convert from PSD to HTML. Let’s begin…
And I’m back with fonts. Last time I shared Designers Fonts for Creating Logos and Headings. Those fonts had a certain amount of decency and class in them. These comic fonts on the other hand are great for creating logos and headings which need a mediocre and flashy touch.
There are certain places where these fonts work great but the earlier ones don’t. The most obvious example would be comic books but there are posters, there are all kinds of graphics which a need plenty of highlighting.
Learning HTML5 on Steroids
HTML5 hit the web so powerfully that even though it’s not complete and properly supported by web browsers yet. Its just announced that it will be completed by 2014, although earlier news was 2022. Despite all this, many designers have started working in it. And not just that, now rest of the designers also want to follow.
If you want to be able to code HTML5 properly, you can learn it from books or you can learn it from reference sheets. In this post you’ll find both of them, but the good thing is that all of these are Free!
Learning from book is the foolproof method but it’s the long route, if you want a shortcut, you have cheatsheets i.e. reference guides.
These books are very brief & intuitive and take only a couple of hours to complete, unlike the books consisting of 300-400 pages which demoralize you just by their length.
Water is the sign of life. Wars have been fought for it and still more than 80% of world’s population does not get it the way they deserve. The day humans find water on any nearby star, they will invade it, that’s how valuable it is. Apart from the biological factors, it also brings a great amount of joy and splendor if you just sit on lake shore or a beach. Sad thing is that photographing it is not an easy task, with all the light bursts and other technical difficulties, besides when you take a photo of a landscape consisting of just water, the viewer say, “what’s the point, it’s just water!” He’ll never understand the atmosphere there was when you took the photo.
Today I have a collection of pictures which are basically consist of a water landscape and you’ll derive great inspiration for taking such shots.
