Collaborative Design Team: Sign-ups​

Everyone,

As part of this administration's goals for the new term and beyond, the Ministry of Communications will now be coordinating a collective effort to bring designers and artists from around The North Pacific together. Upon signing up, members of the team may be asked to create templates and other graphics for the various publications that are produced by our staff members.

In the interest of sustainability, it's preferable that these tasks aren't left to a mere one or two people to complete. As such, seeing a need to alleviate the concentrated and closed-off nature of these tasks, the collaborative design team is hereby established with @nvxl as its team leader.

Regardless of whether or not you have a keen eye for design or a natural talent for creating things, you can still be of help. If you don't know which software to work with when you're just starting out or what you should do to start creating beautiful, usable graphics, then you can be taught. You don't need to be a member of the Ministry of Communications to join the design team. All you need is to be a TNPer. Participation is completely voluntary, of course.

This thread will remain open at all times for sign-ups and a list of the team's current members will be kept below. We strongly encourage you to get involved today!

Yes, my apologies.

Whenever people sign-up to join the collaborative design team, there isn't really an accept/deny process. You're typically added automatically, however I seem to have missed yours.

@nvxl, @Verissimus, @Simone, and @Orange are hereby removed from the Collaborative Design Team.
Click to expand...

I have self-removed myself from the Discord masking for me as a member of the Design Team, since I have not been a member of the team since February. My design style is largely geometric and minimalist, it doesn't work well with TNP's style, and my skills in Adobe InDesign are somewhat rusty.
 
Do you have any design experience? (If not, that's okay! We can help you learn!) < Yes, a bit. I am a fast learner. >
What is your preferred program/software to work with (e.g. Photoshop/Adobe products, Canva, GIMP, etc.): < Canva, Microsoft designer >
Which publication would you like to begin designing for? < Any except the FA. Not really my niche. >
