Hey iv been on this site for a while, but have only just decided to start making GFX any tips you could give me would be appreciated, and i need to know what is a good program to start on and where i can download or purchase it from, thankyou
Depends on what kind of graphics you want to do of course For the general things that you find on here, like signatures and lps, people indeed use photoshop. If you're lookinf for a cheaper solution, you can always try out GIMP, which is open source For making vectors, you're beest off using Adobe Illustrator. In case you want to do C4ds, I think it's best to use the program called Cinema4D. In short, there are numerous programs that can be used really
Get photoshop (there are a lot of ways, both legit and the other method of which I won't go into details), or Gimp (which is free free free), and do tutorials. this site has a massive backlog of tutorials, so sit down, drink some coffee and start doing them. if you find one you like, do it a few times. it all helps. then once you have a good understanding of the program you use, and are confident in what you need in a good signature/lp/c4d, you can start experimenting on your own.
