 ๐Ÿšจneeeed your help frens๐Ÿšจ

im not a designer but i made this design for a shirt, im curious if you guys like it as it is or would change anything about it, like perhaps only 1 of the fonts, or the 3 fonts in front and the fairy in the back ? https://i.nostr.build/gZWyG.jpg

 #3 is pretty sweet. 
 #3 by itself with the fairy ? 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Either way. With the fairy works. ๐Ÿ˜Ž 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 I could see the fairy with the "bitcoin" as a top rocker on almost anything! 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 I really like #1
Feels like pow life 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 #3 is ๐ŸคŒ๐Ÿฝ 
I think either "Bitcoin" front and fairy back or the other way around would work 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Top font with the fairy... or maybe font on front, fairy on back if thats an option?  
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 I like it! 

The 3 bitcoins on the front the fairy on left top of sleeve ๐Ÿคฉ

 Honestly, both could stand on their own too, that fairy design on a pocket tee would be a beaut! 
 Ouuuuuu thatโ€™s true the fairy on a pocket would def be siiiick!! & a lil Easter egg inside the pocket would be cool too! 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Yessss, its gotta be some code ๐Ÿ˜ 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 will it be in colour. if not i like #3 for me its easier to read 
 nope no color but you can use some markers to paint in like a coloring book 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 First font and third font. Back logo is cool too 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Last font is most clear. Also this image โ€˜in cose we trustโ€™ is clearer but maybe remove some small detailed lines. Less is more ๐Ÿ™ 
 It says โ€œin code we trustโ€ but I guess the font isnโ€™t the best, I just switched it up to a more readable one, what do you think about this font ? https://i.nostr.build/Yg7M7.jpg  
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Yes I think if you remove some small detail lines it can be more clean. But that is also my style so maybe more my thing.

Yes I am not a big fan of this font but I know it fits this kind of images. It always reminds me on german designs (as a dutch person) they use
This kind of fonts often. (Even restaurants etc ๐Ÿ˜…) 
 I was trying to go for like a streetwear high end designer kind of look tbh something you could wear to the club or luxury parties idk lolll https://i.nostr.build/yqB5J.jpg

 Yeah you make it all vector? This is very useful to use it perfect for clothes etc

If I make something like this I search first for the font I like and continue. 

The thing with this kind of font itโ€™s hard to find one who is this style and clear to read. 
 nope not really Iโ€™m hoping the plebs Iโ€™m collaborating with will handle vectorizing and all that side of the drop, Iโ€™m just doing the design, Iโ€™m not a designer so I know nothing of what Iโ€™m doing which is why I appreciate your feedback and everyone elseโ€™s so much ๐Ÿซ‚๐Ÿ™ 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 As long if your concept is clear and you work with the right designer it would work out fine. But I always should go for vector design so you can use it all in different ways and size.  

Thats why all my art is vector so I can blow it up as big if I want. Because one day one of my PopArt POPs will be a couple meter high at a #nostr and #bitcoin event๐Ÿค™ 
 that makes sense!! & canโ€™t wait to see it ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 That's good advice about the vector.  Nothing is more frustrating than blowing up an image and getting blurred lines. 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Thats why I draw in procreate on the ipad but always make it after words vector in illustrator. So I can use it for stickers, tshirts and in other art things. I also am a big believer of create something that you can re use ๐Ÿค™ 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 I would go with a fantasy or fairy themed font.

https://www.1001fonts.com/fairy-fonts.html 
 Good advice! 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Yes but to find the perfect one you like can take a while ๐Ÿ˜‚ I hope you make it in illustrator so you can do all kind of things. I can always help after this week. (This week still to busy to finalize my summer art project) 
 Iโ€™m ngl I probably wonโ€™t be using a fairy themed font but itโ€™s good advice also I didnโ€™t know about that site so Iโ€™ll def keep it in mind to find other fonts that fit other visions!! & Iโ€™ll take all the help I can get ๐Ÿคฃ Iโ€™m clearly new here

 I use lots of custom fonts for my beer labels and this site is a must for free one time use fonts.  If you are selling and distributing to a large international market it might be better to go with a professional font and pay for the usage. 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 @bitpopart are you saying you can make your own font (TTF, OTF) in illustrator? 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 No never did that yet. But all my art is vector when its finished so I can use it the way I like it. Illustrator is my nr1 program 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 I have rarely used illustrator but for photography I use photoshop all the time.  I might have to look into using illustrator more when I have the time. 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 Yeah photoshop is nice for all bitmap stuff. But I am a real vector guy ๐Ÿ˜… If you canโ€™t blow it up ๐Ÿ’ฅ without losing quality I donโ€™t like it ๐Ÿคฃ 
โ–ฒ โ–ผ
 I am curious, where did you get the fairy image from?  My favorite artist for fantasy is Arthur Rackham.  His work might give you a bigger selection for fantasy images. 
 that image was deeeeeep inside of โ€œElementsโ€ under โ€œGraphicsโ€ on Canva, it was one of their โ€œmagic suggestionsโ€ when I kept using graphics of that style

Iโ€™m gonna look him up! Thank you ๐Ÿค
