I'm finding that a lot of colour and details are lost when I upload pictures. Anyone having the same issue? I'm saving them with standard web HD resolution. They look fine on my computer but loose quite a bit after upload. I've tried with both JPG and PNG. Any suggestions for #pixelfed uploads? Meta has their own image processing magic that really helps.

The year is 1995 and #Britpop is in overdrive (and I’m at colouring-in college studying #GraphicDesign). These two posters adorned my wall.

The #Supergrass ‘I Should Coco’ poster came via a friend, who charmed a member of staff at our local HMV and liberated a stack of Supergrass posters as they were taking down a window display — then kindly passed one my way.

The #Pulp ‘Disco 2000’ poster is limited edition. The single came with a postcard you could send off to get the poster (and if I recall correctly, some other promo goodies too).

They’ve been in a cardboard tube for the best part of 30 years — now freshly framed they’ve been liberated by 16 year old son for his bedroom wall.

When a publisher mails you with a request for another book design. Because they liked the last (minimalist) design I did so much.
I accepted, of course, on the condition they could leave the assistant (they sent to help last time) out. That person slowed down the process, annoyed the living shit out of me and tried to take credit for work she didn't do. The publisher agreed.
