- ovi256 18y agoWish I could upmod you more than once. Having an artistic (in the proper, good sense) sensibility and simply good taste will improve your designs tremendously. You see, one clever fellow named Steve Jobs did exactly that. He took a calligraphy class that turned him onto design. Later he became pretty well known for his great products. On a side note, good taste helps even in the small things or the things you do not design yourself but simply choose: clothes, business card designs, and so on.
- thomasswift 18y agothanks, I had some free spaces left when I was pursuing my comp sci degree and took one composition/design class. It helped me to look at other things besides just code. I did wish I took some more because it was interesting and somewhat applicable.
