Upgrade!

An extra post just to get it on the board that I now own Adobe InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator CC for the very expensive price of free. I am now one step ahead of everyone in yearbook that only has CS6 and two steps ahead of our school that only has CS5.

EQ

1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ.

2. State whether or not the following EQ's follow the rule of three and why.

a. Yes, it follows the rule of three. It is a question that requires research into the topic to find different ways of losing weight, It allows you to back up those answers with information, and the format is fine.

b. No, it does not follow the rule of three. The formatting of this question is wrong and it doesn't make obvious sense.

c.  Yes, it follows all of the criteria for the rule of three. The formatting is great, there are several different hairstyles and different types of people, so it is open ended, but finding research might be a little difficult. Not impossible, but not easy.

d. No, it does not follow the rule of three. This question is not open ended and it seems like there is only one answer to it.

3. What aspects of graphic design as a whole are most important in making an everlasting impact within am audience?

Vector Art vs Pixel Art

So, I found this article that basically told me the pros and cons of pixel art & vector art. In case you don't know the difference, pixel art is normally done in Photoshop and is what pictures use. You manipulate little pixels to your liking. Vector Art is better done in Illustrator. You use the pen tool to manipulate lines to the shape you want.
The biggest con when it comes to vector art is that adding in little details is strenuous work. My latest piece for my Independent Component 1 blog will show it soon when I update it. Making a flat image requires almost no effort, but when making realistic objects, prepare for a long journey of blood, sweat & tears.
The biggest pro for vector art is that no matter how zoomed in you are, there is no pixelation. Since vector art is just mathematical lines, you can make it as large or as small as you wish since no matter how zoomed out or in you are, you can always go further.
Pixel art is basically swapped in that its biggest pro is easy manipulation of realistic objects whereas its con is that if you zoom in too much, depending on the DPI of the photo or file, you will eventually hit pixelation. Here's an example of one of my designs in pixel and vector form.
