    First, there is the asset type, raster graphics, vector, print, photo, font. Then, there is the exported master file: a TIFF, a PNG, an SVG, or a PDF. Then come the delivery variants, made with ImageMagick, pngquant, svgo, or Ghostscript. These delivery variants are the ones you then upload. Neat, right? Shout out to Koschatzky.…

    Consolidating my note‑taking software I’ve noticed an issue with software lately: I always have around three programs that are so similar in what they do, I find it difficult to work with any of them at all.

    Photoshop isn’t the finish line, it’s just the (raster) engine I am not only changing the way I practice and read about graphic design, but I am also rethinking the way I work with my software.

    I’d rather read Goethe and Schiller I’d rather read Goethe and Schiller because I am very German, but a few updates are in order.

    Coming back from a couple of days of trying out many setting in Photoshop and my Wacom, I have concluded that I need to actually learn using Photoshop. Luckily, I have come prepared, and already have just the right book for that. I want to make a note here about how strange it is that…

    Hey everyone! I wanted to share a little story about a recent frustration that turned into a small coding adventure. If you’re into digital art, scripting, or just curious about how I hack my workflow with a Wacom and Photoshop, this one’s for you. It’s a mix of trial and error, some helpful AI assistance,…
