When trees grow they dont make a sound, but when they fall that is when the noise is heard.
Keep growing silently when the major break comes that is when people will hear the sound.

I have to be honest here, you are trying. But designing fliers will not give you money. You need to learn more challenging things like company profile and brochure.

Go to Google and search for them and then try to redesign them. Afterward, you can know if you are good or not.

Good luck!

Nice attempt... You are on track. You should be cautious about your spellings too. You don't want a nice work ruined by wrong spellings. Resurrection not Resurection. All the best

Nice work. Keep learning, keep practicing.

The book cover is nice but IMO, you can use a more stylish font for the title and another font for the author's name.

Btw, try to also use canva. It's a very good app for beginners and i think it has more templates and features you can learn with.

Good luck

Not bad for a start. Well done & Keep it up.

Learn to copy creatively. Look for designs you like and adapt it by giving it your own twist.

Aim for balance between your design elements

Use colors that rhyme with and compliment the brand colors.

Wishing you all the best

Mmmm... How about embossing the Logo? It makes it more appealing. Then, never blur out a text. You want people to be able to read your text. So, the blurry text is a no no.


Try using wordArt text for your titles. Use the tilting text with really bold letters. They appear better that way.

Chai! Reminds me of my days in computer school, learning graphic designs with Corel draw. We did shegey with graphics. Pepsi logo and all.

I remember an interview at Guinness. I was asked to design a Guinness logo, I wowed the chairman and got the job as a data entry clerk. Memories.


Imagine that..you wowed the chairman with your graphics skills and got a data entry job.

Why not start with one of these software
Adobe photoshop
Adobe illustrator
Coreldraw

Though the pixel lab is not bad
Please can I learn Graphic Design online on my own? If so, how can I learn it. What do I need?

I'd advice you learn with industry standards Apps like Coreldraw, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator. Etc.
Cos there are complex and sophisticated designs you won't be able to do using pixellab.
Can I learn Graphic Design on my own with these apps?

I just started learning few weeks ago and this are just practice work not for any client.
I am self learning Graphics Design, Using pixel lab

Please rate my work and if you think I can work for you give me a job


OP, if you can manage to read my comment, well done and keep it up. You must not stop.
Let Youtube be your friend...one of the best ways to learn graphics design is through watching videos, and there are loads of videos on Youtube.

When you are strong enough on Pixel lab, start learning Photoshop...

*********
One last advice...when you walk on the streets, pick up handbills and posters...take them home and try to design them yourself...it must not be perfect but you will improve greatly

Yes. You have a problem with that?

He already saw in my CV that im computer literate and could work with Excell and Access, coupled with my work experience as a data entry clerk and TIL manager. So he wanted to know if I'm familiar with the brand about to work with.

See, many of you think interviews are always straight forward where you're only tested on the post you're applying for and that is why many fail because they are not vast. So when they are asked to do things outside their field, they get stucked.

You're doing well bro.

Try to remove the Logo background next time. You can use the "erase color" tool on Pixellab to do that.

Also remember that youtube is Free.

I downloaded from playstore
I downloaded fonts and installed it to the pixellab more than 10000 fonts and logos

Is it the pixellab with the blue colour icon? I really don't know how to go about adding fonts to it.

Urmmm... Maybe ask those who did theirs online because. I didn't learn online. I went to the school and learnt it one on one. This was as far back as 2001 before ever online classes began; at least here in Nigeria. So I can't really say much about online computer graphics training.

Though if you have a laptop, you can download a self training app and use it to learn. I think some guys had it back then and they were always ahead of us in class. It used to come in CDs those days.

It was just an observation, not here to quarrel with you madam.

And you certainly cannot lecture me on interviews - I am frequently on the other side of the interview table. You know, the side where the decisions get taken.

Good day.
