2022 Calendar Ponderings!
🕑 Added 2021-11-18 05:22:12 +0000 UTCDear Insane Children,
Font Lord here with a simple question.
Transparent or not?
As some of you may know, we are going to do a 2022 Calendar Print, and as you can see from the above image, we're wondering if the date box at the bottom should be solid as shown on the left, or should you be able to see through it as you can on the right?
Sound off in the comments with what you think is most visually appealing to you.
Also the actual print we will use is not set in stone yet either, so do any of you have a favorite print in mind we could use?
It could be one we already released or maybe a print we did not use yet but you've seen posted here on Patreon.
Let us know!
Sound off in the comments with your thoughts and suggestions.
Once we know all the information around the calendar, we will post here again before the end of the month to let you all know the details of how it will be obtainable.
Big hugs from sunny Shanghai.
- Cheers

I personally think the solid one looks better
Non
Solid
transparent
Either works as it’s not noticeable and nothing jumps out to me

Okay, where can we buy these again?
I like the solid

Transparent
Solid :D

I say solid.
Transparent makes it feel more connected.
Solid
Transparent looks nice.
Eva Mavrikou
The transparent one, since it lets you to see more of the art.
Jessica
I'd say transparent to see more of the art, though the left is also nice.
First I am SOOO excited you are doing another calendar! Thank you! I like the transparency
Transparent looks nice.

I prefer the left for a starter page to show the months in the year, makes it feel for gathered and unified; while, I would prefer the right for the individual months.

I personally like the transparent, allows more of the art to be visible
Solid
Transparent.
Alice holding the Cheshire Cat is one of my favorite prints and transparent is cool
Not a fan of transparent
Not transparent
I like the solid look better

I like transparent. As per print to use, I like the universal trinity one as a past, present, future theme which suits a calendar.
The solid looks better. The red breaks it up more and I think that just looks better aesthetically
solid

I think the choice might depend on the underlying artwork. I lean a little more toward transparent in general though.
As long as the main focus of the print is in the top half, solid is better
Solid is better in my opinion.

I would prefer the non transparent version, because (in my opinion) the actual transparent version looks kinda weird. Can't point out why, it just looks wrong. Maybe it would would look better with each month non transparent.
It covers more art, but something feels missing when it's transparent, so as it stands I prefer non-transparent.
Juan Romero
I like opaque more
I like solid

I really think it depends on the artwork used. Either works for the above print, but won't necessarily be the case for all examples.
Not transparent
Amy Gauna
The more I look at it and think about it, the less certain I am, but my initial instinct was solid vs transparent.
Wendy Jaa
Solids and a new print! Also, would these be the same material as usual? I'm not sure if a pen would work on the usual prints.
Karma Chameleon
I dig the transparent one but solid is good too, I just like the extension of the picture in the transparent version.
Non-transparent but maybe a less “busy” box around it? Like the red points in the middle of the left and right side I think get in the way
Transparent, definitely.
I prefer transparent, It's more accurate for me.
I personally prefer transparent backgrounds
I think it depends on the background print. The above example works well with either. Some potential images could look weird with transparent or "lose" part of them with solid. The Universal Trinity might be a good one...and it would work well with either transparent or solid
Transparent
I really like both but I do like the transparent more. 🥰
I prefer solid, but will get it either way.
E.N.D.
Transparent looks nice. Solid looks good too.
Martin Towell
My preference is solid but don't mind if it's transparent
Abelwyn Connelly
I prefer the transparent, but it wouldn't be a deal breaker for me. Love the artwork.
Apoll0nius
I'm partial to the solid.
Stephanie Groth
Either works. I agree with Holden.
Really dig the transparent! It’s separate enough to see still but doesn’t distract or take away more of the art which is my biggest want in a calendar anyway
