SO I DECIDED TO CUT THE LAST CHAP OFF AT FIVE, TOO LONG CAN BE TOO BORING

[1] STYLES: I HAVE NOTICED DIFFERENT DESIGNERS HAVE DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS OF DIFFERENT STYLES OF GRAPHICS, I THOUGHT I'LL JUST CLEAR MINE

~SIMPLE: TEXT SLAP, WHERE YOU JUST PLAY AROUND WITH THE TEXT, THE BACKGROUND IS A PHOTOGRAPH

~BLENDED: [1] WHERE YOU PLACE A PNG OVER A BACKGROUND AND SHOWER IT WITH OVER LAYS AND TEXTURES ; [2] WHERE YOU PLACE IMAGES TOGETHER AND BLEND THEM TO LOOK LIKE ONE.

~MANIP: WHERE YO PLACE A MODEL ON A BACKGROUND AND GIVE IT A REAL DRASTIC CHANGE. [THE ORIGNAL IMAGE OF THE SAMPLE IS THERE IN THE MEDIA SECTION ABOVE.

~VECTOR: TEXT+VECTOR MODELS

~RANDOM [I IMPROVISED THIS CATEGORY]: THE GRAPHICS THAT DON'T FIT ANYWHERE ELSE, LIKE PICKING PNGS AND PLACING THEM OVER A BACKGROUND AND ADDING GLOWS AND STUFF TO IT.

OTHER STYLES THAT EXIST BUT I DONT MAKE:

~OBJECT BASE MANIP: SAME THING BUT WITH AN OBJECT

~TYPOGRAPHY: TEXT IS STYLED TO IT'S BEST AND IS THE FOCUS.

~MINIMAL: IT IS SAME AS SIMPLE COVER BUT IT IS REDUCED TO THE MINIMUM, MEANS SIMPLE FONTS , SMALL DOODLE, AND LOADS OF SPACE

~COLLAGE COVER: A COLLAGE [GRID] AND TEXT.

[2] HACK: TO THOSE TIMES WHEN YOU REALIZE YOU WERE SO ENGROSSED IN YOUR EDIT YOU FOR GOT TO LEAVE SPACE FOR THE TEXT, ADD A LAYER, GO TO FX FILTER, LAST OPTION BLUR FRAME AND SET IT TO THREE PX. THEN TAKE A BLACK AIRBRUSH ANS BRUSH/COLOR A LIL PATCH AT THE BOTTOM OR TOP [I DID THAT IN THE 'THE LUNA' MANIP.

[3] COLOR COMBINATIONS: USE GOOD COLOR COMBINATIONS THAT PLEASE THE EYE, AVOID USING GREEN AND RED TOGETHER, CAUSES COLOR BLINDNESS. SOME DECENT COMBINATIONS ARE PRESENT IN THE SHADE CARD [TAKEN FROM PINTEREST]

MORE TO COME
