Hey Payton! Just wondering: what do you use to make your graphics (aesthetics included)? I love them ❤️

@xo_ilovepuppies_xo aw no problem! and i got into graphic design back in late 2016/early 2017. ive done video editing in the past but never much with photos. i joined google+ during this time and during my g+ years, i made friends that made aesthetics. it inspired me and i started to make my own as well. i started off small and they obviously weren’t that good, but i was very new to it. from there, i just kept expanding my knowledge. and i guess the answer really depends. for some it’s harder, while other’s it’s easier. just keep practicing and try your best. use clear images, download fonts if you want a certain appeal, and use programs that work for you. it’s a skill that takes time to learn and tbh, i’m still learning too <3

@amethystorm Thank you SO much for this clarification!!! You’re the best ❤️❤️. What got you into graphic designing? When was this? Is graphic designing a difficult feat?

@xo_ilovepuppies_xo photoshop cc is money. actually, all forms of photoshop cost money, but the only free one is photoshop cs2. however, many pc’s and macs can’t support cs2 since it is outdated and will likely not run properly. if you have an old computer or laptop, photoshop cs2 might work. both are really good. i used canva for a year and was still able to make graphics for myself and others that i liked. it really depends on what you’re looking for. if you’re just looking for something to get the job done or are a beginner to graphic designing, i suggest canva. if you want something more detail-oriented or professional, go with photoshop. you also don’t HAVE to get photoshop cc just because it’s the newest form. all other versions are really good, just less updated & with different features. hope this clears things up <3
