我近期出产的2款海报设计

SuperOutman — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 05:29:14 +0000

最近工作有点乱，从上至下遇到的都是方向性的问题，这种问题很折磨人。在仓促之下推出了这2款海报，能起到多大作用不得而知，反正视觉效果是有了，我的任务完成鸟，其他的问题我就忽略不计了，也管不了。

我现在越来越喜欢做这种没创意的海报了。因为只要找个合适的底图，再加点自己设计的异形字就搞定了，最后还落得个看官满意，我也省劲，悠哉悠哉。OK，我承认我现在是一个毫无创意的图形拼凑者，但这并不是以我的意志为转移的，说实话，我也很无奈。

第2张海报里的电影胶片素材，这里有下载，是矢量的喔。

在设计中字体的应用技巧(一)，寻找字体

SuperOutman — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 12:31:45 +0000

在平面设计的排版布局中，字体设置是最重要的环节之一。适当的字体设置不仅让人看着舒服，而且还能起到引导读者的作用。字体设计是一门学问，通过我自己的一些实践，我逐步总结了一些经验技巧，在这里与大家分享一下。如果你有其他好的方法，也可以跟我交流一下，希望能与大家共同提高。

关于字体的应用技巧，我准备用系列文章的形式与大家一起研究。目前我规划好的内容有三个部分，在今后的实践中可能还会有新的话题产生，我会逐步添加到这个系列中，当然这是后话了。在这一节中，你能获得的有效信息是：如何快速找到合适的字体。

好了，开始正题。一般情况下我们用Photoshop选择字体的时候，是一路NEXT点击下去预览的。这样一来就比较麻烦，当我们看好某一字体后，如果还想继续翻看有没有更合适的字体，那该怎么办？要是继续翻下去，结果没找到更合适的，再返回去找最开始比较合适的那款字体时，是不是基本已经忘记它长什么样了？找来找去既浪费时间又浪费精力，真麻烦，如果电脑里字体装的稍微多点，那还不把人找疯了…这一点Photoshop就不如Illustratorcs做的人性化，后者在预览字体时是所见即所得的。

那在做Photoshop时有没有什么好方法解决这个问题呢？当然有，为了以后方便快速查找字体，我特地手动做了一张“字体预览表”。有了这个表，你可以一目了然地查看喜欢的字体，然后对应字体名称快速在电脑中找到相应的字体。

这样是不是就省事多了？还不错吧，呵呵。如果对你有帮助的话，那么就下载这个“字体预览表”吧。值得注意的是，这个图中的字体是经典字库的全部字体，如果你的电脑里没有经典字库，那么得先到下面的地址下载字库安装程序。然后你就可以享用它了（图中的字体大小是按我个人平时使用频率设置的）～

提示：在中文字库中，种类很多，几个常见的有经典字库、文鼎字库、汉仪字库。总体来说字体都大同小异，所以这张“字体预览表”可以举一反三作为查找不同类型字库字体的一个参考。

分享一套高精度PSD分层素材

SuperOutman — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 16:21:15 +0000

我挑选了几个比较有代表性的分层素材，今天传上来给大家分享一下。这几套图片里的元素都很实用，在做图的时候可以单独拿出来使用，会节省不少设计时间！这是从一本200多RMB的素材库里选取的，原书里附赠了12张DVD光盘，文件容量大的惊人，所以就先共享这几张尝尝鲜好了。本资料仅供学习交流使用。

文件大小：494.9MB
文件格式：PSD
文件下载地址：点击进入fs2you硬盘

注意：我上载的空间为fs2you，最近它被屏蔽了，这么好的服务被毙了真是痛不欲生。还好有个一键破解的方法，可以恢复使用fs2you！查看解决办法，请访问这里：fs2you.org.cn

最后，祝大家使用愉快～

免费的高质量流行英文字体

SuperOutman — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 07:43:01 +0000

来自国外网站TechMagazine的推荐，这些字体都是免费的，都很不错，配有字体插图。
很适合用于自己的设计中。

1. Andron Scriptor has been issued to support scholarly editing purposes for medieval philological studies and is provided free of charge. Font format: TrueType for Windows/Linux/Mac OS X.

2. Audimat

3. Chryſanþi Unicode font contains all unicode latin characters (including Basic Latin, Latin 1 Supplement, Latin Extended A & B, IPA, and Latin Extended Additional) as well as greek, cyrillic, hebrew, and ſeveral oþers.

4. Greyscale Basic

5. The Delicious. Its every character has a unique shape. Consistency in spacing, not in the character shape. Special attention was given to character spacing to obtain a homogenic appearance. With it’s relatively large x-height the Delicious can be used for text in smaller point sizes.

6. COM4t is an Original Free Font 2006. Designed by Hideki Katayama.

7. District Thin is the thinnest weight from GarageFonts’ District family, by Kienan and Dylan Smith.

8. Diavlo is a free font that contains 5 weights: Light, Book, SemiBold, Bold and Black. Diavlo is organic and a bit square and sharp. Great attention has been given to detail, spacing and kerning. Each weight contains more than 300 glyphs and over 1.300 kerning pairs.

9. Existence

10. Fertigo is a bit like Laphroaic; the more you get to know it, the more you’ll (probably) appreciate it. With it’s auto-ligatures (no Open Type programs needed), a complete character set and many other unknown features it can be hard to resist.

11. The Fontin is designed to be used at small sizes. The color is darkish, the spacing loose and the x-height tall. The numbers of the Fontin have a ‘hybrid’ design. They carry the characteristics of medieval numbers, but their size is larger than the x-height.

12. Garogier is a typeface not unlike Garamond (hence the name). It will have optical size through its instructions (i.e. at low sizes, also when it is used on a high-resolution device such as a printer, the characters are changed slightly to increase readablity). This is supported by Windows 98 and up (this includes 2000 and XP).

13. Gentium is a typeface family designed to enable the diverse ethnic groups around the world who use the Latin script to produce readable, high-quality publications. It supports a wide range of Latin-based alphabets and includes glyphs that correspond to all the Latin ranges of Unicode. The design is intended to be highly readable, reasonably compact, and visually attractive. The additional ‘extended’ Latin letters are designed to naturally harmonize with the traditional 26 ones. Diacritics are treated with careful thought and attention to their use. Gentium also supports both polytonic and monotonic Greek, including a number of alternate forms.

14. Geo Sans

15. Junicode (short for Junius-Unicode) is a Unicode font for medievalists. The current version is a beta. Junicode currently contains 2438 characters in the regular style (the italic, bold and bold italic styles are less complete). It implements these Unicode ranges completely (or nearly so): Basic Latin, Latin 1 Supplement, Latin Extended A, Latin Extended B, IPA Extensions, Spacing Modifier Letters, Greek, Greek Extended, Combining Diacritical Marks, Runic, and others.

16. Kontrapunkt was awarded the Danish Design Prize for best typeface on October 22, 2004.

17. Legendum is a typeface not unlike MS’s Verdana. It has been made for optimal screen readability. It is anti-aliased on Windows as well. It now contains all normal Latin characters as well as all Greek characters, plus punctuation.

18. Lindau was inspired by a photocopy of an old pattern which dates back approximately to the 20s or 30s.

19. Linux Libertine is designed to give you an alternative for fonts like T*mes New Roman. It is free software published under terms of GPL. Contains kernig information, western ligatures, OpenType-Tables, small caps, etc.

20. Mank Sans

21. MgOpenCanonica is a serif typeface, based on the design of Times Roman.

22. MgOpenCosmetica is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Optima.

23. MgOpenModata is another sans-serif typeface.

24. MgOpenModerna is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Helvetica.

25. Alejandro Paul’s Mobley was inspired by a 1960s jazz album which featured Neil Bold, a heavy display face with odd counters and cuts designed by Wayne Stettler. Expanding on Stettler’s ideas, Mobley constitutes a brand new typographic whole molded around the original.

26. Romeral is designed to produce a noticeable visual impact that invites the audience to the reading due to its sizable thickness. The basic idea was to find a way to fill the color titles zone in order to create a comfortable atmosphere for the reading experience.

27. The special font-family, Share, has been developed to advance the TYPO3 identity further and to maintain consistency across communication channels. Share comes with the Western European code page.

28. Tallys is a font that is one degree slanted and has large caps, a small x-height and long ascenders. It comes (see also Fontin) with hybrid numbers and a complete character set. Besides standard ligatures some other combinations can be accessed via (application) OptenType options.

29. Tuffy by Thatcher Ulrich

30. Steiner is ideal for logos and general design. It isn’t very suitable to be used with word-processors as it lacks some symbols and letters.
