Hey all... i really like this new Designer's Cafe! top idea.
I was just wondering how do you guys go about your designs. Do you draw a sketch before you design? ect. I personally dont, I begin with a shape or usually a header and work my design around that. If i set limitations early on. ie sketching i find that my designs are too tame. but thats just me. So what kind of things do concider when designing something? Nikita |

It depends, really. I used to create everything on the computer before but I've started to draw a few things on paper to get myself started. I can easily erase and start over if I get some shapes and curves wrong. On the computer, it's just a lot of editing. I end up spending too much time editing shape layers when using the pen tool. I might as well draw them on paper to make it easier for myself.
What do you mean by what we consider when designing? Meaning the actual process we use? |

Although i genarally start with a key shape and everything is based aroung that. |
