We are always hiring for GDT, but I wanted to give an update :pleased-1:

I know not everyone has access to Photoshop/Illustrator, but we are making templates on Canva, so that if you want to make something, but don't have the software, all you need is a browser :D

If you have any questions at all please feel free to reach out to me via PM, discord or e-mail! :D

BUMP!

If anyone has any graphics skills or any inclination to learn please reach out to @Siera al'Cere to see whether GDT would be a good fit for you.

We're constantly making different graphics for all our TarValon.Net events (official or not) as well as content for our social media channels so there's something for everyone. It's a great learning experience too for a designer who's just starting out.
