The Internet changed graphic design

Let's discuss about the internet develop graphic designer nowadays.

Do you think the Internet changed the way graphic designers designs? Well, I'm agreed and think that the internet had changed the way graphic designers design, because nowadays people can easily get resources from the internet, as many designers started to place their masterpieces online.

As what I searched, the software, tools, learning, training, discussions, exchanges of graphic designers changed graphic designers' design from the predigital era to these days.

Before the Internet became a drugs for our daily life, graphic designers obtained their software tools in product boxes that included physical-media installers, printed manuals and even a registration card to return in the mail. With broadband access now widely available, the box and the installer discs have disappeared, replaced by downloads, PDF documentation and online registration. Software companies issue frequent product updates, also available by download (Mott, 2015).

Thus, today's blogs and forums carry the phenomenon onto the public Internet, adding free resources to a global conversation (Mott, 2015). Not only that, the internet also has impacted graphic design in a major way. The internet has created a new medium for design, a new way to collaborate, more opportunities of education and easier way to plagiarize the work from others (Mcelwee, 2015). Of course, designers can be really creative and design without any limitation.

  1. Good points.

    Take care of using quality references.

    Maybe do a historical study on Adobe softwares most used by designers in your next post.
    They probably evolved with the computing technology, first being bulky and expensive, then sold in boxes, and now downloaded and maybe integrated with mobile web & apps.
