This are my graphic design and i decided to post them here in order to know people's view before i can introduce my handwork to the market, my dear nairalanders that are expert in graphic designs, am i free?

Nope it's a popular picture online,I just tweaked the appearance in Photoshop to be brighter so didn't brush it up & did the layout in CorelDraw.

Flyer designs from my archives & definitely working on getting better with time...*winks winks*

Yoruba because the teacher was a funky Cele attending lepa guy wearing jeans of 1980s in 2000s. Very insultive dude in class,I later couldn't stomach his class & didn't attend again. My joy when he said am not recommended to write it in WAEC I quickly put my love "Economics" immediately.

Biology not that I didn't know it but the teacher was 1 MFM sadist of a lady with her stupid & condescending remarks for her age. In SS2,I had my complete Biology note stolen from my locker by seniors to use as "expo" in their WAEC. Had to write from scratch because photocopy wasn't my thing. The silly teacher gave me a woeful mark(my worst ever) & forgot to add my test scores which should have given me a C not an E. She lied that I said she should add them,I was like WTH?!! So was when I was given Food & Science Technology(FST) in FUTA because I didn't make the cut-off for Civil Engineering as 1st choice. I was shown the syllabus from Part1-5 saw how much Biology was involved,all I could of was the bloody teacher again,I said heck "NO"!!!Took my 2nd choice of architecture & 1 of the best decisions I ever made in my life*sighs*phew*wiping my foreheads & eyebrows*lmao*lol*lwkmd*

I advice you also put your location for people to know whether it favours them or not. If you aren't able to get anyone please use Youtube & search for video tutorials on CorelDraw & Photoshop,best regards...

Lol*lwkmd*lmao*rotflr*hahaha*Na so,it's just how 3D Sculpting goes down,bro. ZBrush is cool just like its arch-rival Mudbox those 2must be in the arsenal for more ghenghen effects...

prof800:
I'm telling you.
Zbrush is a "cheat" and a "wizard".


Kudos to you xothermilk... the WIPs are looking good.

Good stuff,bro,keep it from your guy,DM...

xothermik:
Hi guys. just wanted to share progress from work im doing for a client. its a 3d sculpt of the founding fathers of nigeria. they are meant for stills and at this point still very much a work in progress and essentially nailing the likeness of the characters will still go over some detailing and posing to achieve more personality.

*No difference noticeable for real*

*Your article gig "You will write a nice & perfect article" why not an attractive,read worthy or content-rich article". You are more or less bragging no one's perfect,dude,seriously.

*You clearly aren't so good at "logo design". Please remove that gig,practice the more before you can go commercial* Subscribe to CreatnProcess & Tasty Tuts on Youtube.

You do need to make up your mind about your niche choices being in both Graphics & Design then Writing & Translation at the same time. You maybe better @just writing so stick to that,best regards...

The guy quote me I don't know why & you read my mind. Why do we as Nigerians need to pull someone else's effort down to prove a point seriously?!!*Throws hands in the air*I'd rather watch video tutorials from Udemy & take the tips from here...#QED...

pyerii:
Was that aimed at motivating or you meant to brag? Nawa!

A fair attempt,keep learning more on art as you have potential to be better,best regards...

And yesterday made it two months i started fiverr, Now badged as Level 2 seller #hustle hard

For now forget religion for a minute & face this reality. e.g If you plan to go into writing using a Nigerian IP probability of sales is zero to very few orders on fiverr. If you are into Graphics,Art & Video or other lucrative categories that aren't biased then as a Nigerian you still make plenty of sales regardless of your nationality. Being black has a disadvantage already & then being Nigerian is also means being labelled as all of us are corrupt which isn't true.
We live in the digital age,anyone who doesn't know how to effectively is digitise his/her business or skills moving forward to the future is going to lose greatly in any location,best regards...

chyegems:
What if I use a nigeria IP as a born again Christian, won't I sell I ve not opened an acct though. Still battling with my spirit.

Ofcourse,bro,it's what I said from the beginning...Somebody gets it @last...

GSteve001:
when it comes to corel? Look bro, i'm a corel freak too. But learning corel better needs lower versions, because they are not sophisticated like the newer ones. Don't you think it's better to teach a kid to write with a plain pen than start with a pen that has a camera, activity recorder, ink guage, and writing-angle measurer

Ofcourse it is. Get on youtube there are lots of channels to choose from & subscribe to,best regards...

Eze2000:
I got Photoshop cs6 is it good to learn with?

Am more of an Adobe user now Photoshop,Illustrator & InDesign but still CorelDraw well enough when needed. Photomanipulation & effects for me is strictly in Photoshop & Lightroom for the best regards...

Eze2000:
so what is your opinion as best path for me to go by?
The reason why I need coreldraw is to be able to modify eBook covers and blog photo posts since it works differently from photoshop

Panshow:
You are better off learning with X7 than lower versions. The fact that something is older does not make it simpler.

Don't agree entirely with that statement. It's relative because I started in this app far back as version 10. X7 & the new X8 are a bit more complex for beginners but for seasoned users not that much when they get used to the new features. X7's jpg export version has an issue of not being easily readable by most phones like X4-5 downwards & obviously easier to navigate for newbies. As mentioned before addition of new features & tools in X7 with the removal of some while others are now hidden as shortcut keys.

search google there is a plugin for gmail that shows if someone has read your email or not, install it or tell him to install it, if it shows that the mail has been read, then it is none of your business again ( and by the way seems you are into digital marketing, hence you should have all those plugins install )

God Bless Nigeria!!!

Hi,it's CorelDraw not CoralDraw,bro. No one started as pro in any app so it's to you to start your own creative journey in getting better at it.
If you have someone close to you will to teach you well or enrol in a computer college but your best bet is YouTube subscribe to the "CorelDraw Channel".

Eze2000:
Hi,
I own a window 8.1 system that isn't 100% compatible with coral draw X3 because it is for 32 bit system. I came across 64 big software but its dorsal draw x7.
