The stars must be aligned for me in 2022--last week when I did this demo for the new Pantone Color of the Year I started off trying to use a dial, but I got frustrated when I couldn't get the dial to align correctly and rotate back and forth the way I wanted it to. Seeing this challenge today sent me back to the drawing board to brush up my dial skills. Enjoy exploring your horoscope for 2022.

- Samuel3 years agoCommunity MemberWay to kick off the new year, Jodi! I like it :)
- AprilAntoniou-03 years agoCommunity MemberBeautiful artwork! I love astrology, I liked the experience of turning the dial (once I figured out how to turn it!) Wishing everyone a happy and prosperous 2022!
- FredericBrewer3 years agoCommunity MemberHi Jodi this was really impressive! And my horoscope was pretty accurate too, haha. Would you mind sharing how long it took you to make this?
- JodiSansone3 years agoCommunity MemberHi Frederic, thank you for the question. I worked on this over the course of 2 weeks and since I was doing it for fun I didn't really pay much attention to how long it was taking. My best guess would be about 12 hours. It took time to format the art and convert it into the Very Peri Pantone Color of the Year (I posted a version of this in Challenge #354). I also spent quite a bit of time finding short horoscope predictions for 2022. And in this version I had some challenges in getting my dial alignment to work--the dial had to be perfectly aligned with the 12 signs and I was having trouble getting my head around the dials settings--I used the tutorials in the Articulate Community because I was rusty on using a custom dial. I hope that helps answer your question!
- FredericBrewer3 years agoCommunity MemberHey Jodi. Yes that helps a lot, thank you! That does sound like a decent chunk of time, but the results are a great pay off. Adjusting the dial was also the biggest challenge for me. I'll check out your Challenge #354, cheers! -FB
