You are absolutely on point! Practising is very important when we talk about getting it right with designing. I mean you are working on becoming a better designer and you can only achieve that when you are able to practise more.

What really made you not to make use of it? Was it really as a result of not having the money then or basically as a result of no time?

It depends on the number of contestants taking part in the contest. Another thing to look at is also the budget that has been set aside for the contest. If it is something that covers more than one winner and is still worth it, why not?

I have grown to enjoy posting on forums, but that is when I am not skating. Posting on forums has helped me learn more about different interests in life.

Yes. That is what I am saying. Unless you are doing personal designs and don't want to do it for money, there is a need to learn how to use a whole of other advanced tools aside from using Canva, for example.

I had a client that I did some logos and web designing for last month. To be honest, it wasn't an easy job, and that made me charge the client around 30 dollars per hour to get the job done.

That's a nice list. I believe that it is quite important to look at the tools on the list and understand that anyone that wants to succeed in designing needs to learn the basics of using those tools. I mean, there are works that Adobe Illustrator can do better than Adobe Photoshop, and all it...

I believe Illustrator is more like the advanced version for graphic designers who want to do more than just photo manipulation. The extra features that you can get by using an Illustrator set it apart from Photoshop.

This is massive. I have been using some of the Google tools in some graphic works, and I believe that the text to video transformation would be a good one. I will be part of those checking it out once it is fully operational.

If it comes to contests, I believe that giving out design tools would be a fair price. It depends on who was sponsoring the contest and what and what is involved at the end of the day.

I have not taken part in any contests, but I was lucky one time to run some couple of design works for an organisation that asked that designers submit samples of their work. It was a really nice feeling getting picked ahead of the rest.

This is basically what I do as well. When it comes to clients that want their works done within a short time frame, I don't think twice before going for water-based colors as long as I get what I am looking for.

I make use of oil based colours because they tend to last longer. When I look towards durability, I go with oil based colours because of that.

Well, I make use of my iPhone 13 in my photography works. If you see the quality of the photos, you won't believe that it was taken with a smartphone.

You are right. When it comes to photo manipulation, Photoshop does the work pretty better than making use of an illustrator.

Oh! GIMP is great and aside from offering wide range of features that helps designers edit, resize and do more on their works, it is also available on multiple operating systems such as Linux, Windows and Macos. That's why I enjoyed making use of it as well.

Aside from my ability to create designs, I am also a photographer, and that makes it easier for me to build up incomes from going to events to take photographs. I am studying some courses that can also help me become an event planner in the future.

I still think Esty is a place to sell your designs faster instead of submitting on Adobe Stock while waiting for royalties to be paid. Don't you think so?

That's good! Aside from Photoshop, have you made use of other software, especially when you started designing newly? There are some of my friends who started graphics designing with canva, for example.

I like skating. If I am not designing, then I am skating in the streets, and to be honest, the activity is always fun. I also enjoy reading most weekends when I've got no place to go as well.
