It’s a bit too cluttered, make it more spread out and get a high resolution picture for the backdrop. Other than that it’s not too bad for a first one. :)

Thanks for the feedback, I'm pretty new to InDesign CC so not sure how to do that. ;)
Maybe under contacts do it a bit differently like adding the discord logo then your tag underneath, etc for other methods of contact
Thanks, I think I made the document a little too small for that, the discord logo wouldn't fit. ;)

The font is WAY TOO BIG
I've taken all feedback into consideration and revamped the entire thread design! Thoughts?!?

First thread design, no hate please. Just opinions.


It's not bad, I'll give you that. However, I've noticed a few things I would like to point out:

The font is a bit too big for both the header and body. I would first recommend decreasing the font size possibly for the body text, and just a bit for the headers per section.

I would also personally recommend a logo being made, and something in a script-related font as writing mostly associates with that.

When some thread designs are done, the prices section is done with a table. I would personally prefer that, but body text for that section looks fine without it too.

Something to keep in mind is to use sans-serif fonts for thread designs. Users nowadays look for clean designs as thread designs with serif fonts or pointy fonts demonstrate complexity (in my perspective and some others'). I would recommend some such as Product Sans, Proxima Nova, or Roboto.

In my opinion, thread designs additionally look best with fluid looks. What I mean is that for instance in the header, you have one background image. In my perspective it would look best if you have background images relating to the first one for every other section after the very first one.

My final suggestion is that you limit the effects to the text within sections. In my perspective, I would advise only to use effects or styles on shapes or icons, but very minimal to demonstrate cleanliness.

Ah, I saw that. Must not have been in time exactly before you told everyone you updated with a new one.

Although, I do recommend that you look at what I said as it may help you in the future with thread designs.

I have and I'm currently changing the font of the thread design, I'll PM you when it's done.

We're getting a logo made as I get more experienced in PhotoShop.[DOUBLEPOST=1507779495][/DOUBLEPOST]
