Anyone have any good resources or articles with good tips for designing a regular email newsletter?

Don't know if anyone just has any thoughts at all, I know this is ultimately my decision and what I want to do, but maybe just hearing some other professionals thoughts could help.
I am currently at a design internship at a pretty good firm. It is more a typical job: they do annual reports, infographics, corporate design, and also some website design and coding (they don't do big e-commerce sites in-hosue, just like micro-sites and the like. There is only one designer cable of building the sites out in html/css/javascript.)
After this internship ended, I had another internship that is supposed to start in like 2 weeks. It was at a pretty big software company doing UX/UI. They are "Google" like and have a lot of money, big campus, flex-ier schedule, badminton courts inside near cubicles, a lot of campus perks (beer trucks in summer, go kart races, services on campuses, whatever), and I guess a big "work community" mindset that they expect everyone to buy into.
Well, the internship I have now just offered me a full time job starting at 38,000. The health benefits are pretty good, 401k, employee owned ESOP company that gives employees stock, etc. We also just got a very large client, so business wise things seemed pretty good. They asked me if I would be willing to learn more about coding websites and whatnot, as they want to expand in that direction more.
I am kind of trying to decide what to do and what sounds like the best career path. One one hand, I have a full time job in front of me at a pretty good place. On the other hand, I have heard UX/UI can be heard to get into, can be lucrative, and It has been implied that the summer internship is looking to hire in too (though I don't know what they would pay if they did)
Though I also feel like learning to code could be very useful (if I can do it) and I don't think I would be doing that at the specific UX/UI internship at all.
My personal qualities: I have a funny personality but also shy with a ton of social anxiety. I am historically not good at socializing in totally new environments. Making friends at work is always hard for me, especially in office settings, which is basically what I am in now. The other place is a little less office-y though
I'd like to move in maybe 2 years (maybe more, more less) anyway after saving up money.

Hi everyone!
I've thought and read about the advantages of getting a degree in graphic design and that's what I'm considering to do. Now I've already been doing my own research but I think that reddit is, more often than not, a great place for this kind of advice. I live in Germany but if it's worth it and somehow affordable I'm willing to go study abroad. Are there any fellow Germans that could recommend any universities? Could it be a good choice to go abroad and if, where?
Right now I'm waging my options so I'm very thankful for any kind of input you can provide!

Hey all. I'm looking to make my room look like the Korova Milk Bar from the 1971 film A Clockwork Orange. I was wondering what the best way would be to inscribe the"Moloko Plus, Moloko Synthemesc, Moloko Vellocet" on the walls. Would you use paint or something else? Will provide a pic of room and the Milk Bar.

Sorry if this has been posted ad nauseam, but a quick search didn’t pull up any threads asking this question.
I’m educated and practicing as an architect and have no formal training in furniture design but have always been interested in it. I have a few design ideas rattling around in my head, some that require digital fabrication (CNC machine) and some that are more traditional methods of manufacturing. What I’d like to know is how one goes about getting a design made on a large scale. I can figure out how to make a prototype at a local shops but once I get those made, how do I then lease off the design to a furniture manufacturer and distributor? Is it better to go to trade shows with a series of designs or just submit my fabricated designs to blogs and websites to get ‘discovered’? Or is it best to just go straight to them and see if they buy my idea? I understand that this can be a case by case instance and depends solely on how GRANDLY i want my design distributed.
Has anyone had experience with getting a piece mass produced?
TL;DR: How do I make my furniture designs into a reality and produce them on a large scale?
I live in the Chicago area, if that helps

Hey Guys, I've been designing T-Shirt graphics for a while and today I've noticed that one my design as well as some designs by a bunch of other artists where stolen and are now being sold on amazon. I've done a "Good Vibes" T-Shirt some ago and today I saw that some guy simpley made a "Vibes T-Shirt" store on Amazon and sells our stolen "good vibe"-themed t-shirts graphics there.
What is the most efficient way to get it taken down?
Here my proof: The original T-Shirt | The artwork from my IG | The shop from the thief
I've heard that it takes quite some time to get Amazon to act on this issue, has anyone had any personal experience with this type of problem??? What I did so far, is just write a bad review. I'd be grateful for any advice!!!

Can anyone recommend a good resource on conducting user/market research on the visual design aspects of a brand? I am interested in making my design decisions more data-driven but I don't have any experience in this area. Books, websites, advice, whatever you've got, I'll take it. Thanks!

I am a first year student in a graphic design program. I have been asked by a Non-Profit to meet with them to redesign their website.
I am interested in this project, but Non-Profits always scare me because they expect everything for little to no cost. I have done a few projects like this before, so I agree to meet.
I am then forwarded an email which shows that there is another web designer invited to this meeting. I feel like this is very strange to be invited to compete for a job at the same time. I would be very reserved in the questions I ask and I don't think I could properly serve their needs without asking those questions. We would also be revealing to each other our approach and style when it comes to interviewing clients. It just seems like that would be an extremely awkward situation for me and the other designer involved.
I had only found out about this by scanning through an email forwarded to me, they wouldn't have told me otherwise. I texted my contact on this and they said that another designer would be attending this meeting.
I told them to call me before I got into a text conversation about it, so I am awaiting that phone call. It is difficult to show tone and inflection in text and while I think this is inappropriate, I didn't want to be a dick about it.
Am I crazy for thinking that this is unprofessional or inappropriate, or do I just not understand how this industry works yet? I am all for competing for a job in which they meet with multiple firms separately to decide who they are going to choose, but this situation seems very bizarre.
Part of me sees this as a red flag before we've even had a conversation, and that makes me want to run away.
Thoughts, reddit?

I'm just looking for examples of branding 'milestones' in history, such as Nike's "Just Do It" campaign in 1988, or Coca-Cola's ubiquitous logo, or Paul Rand's IBM logo. It doesn't have to be just logos either. Thanks guys.
