A Reminder: Be a Responsible Graphic Designer

Like you, I am sure, I am a whole lot more conscious of bad design since I started graphic design school. Sometimes. It can get to the point that you become annoyed. 

Check out these sites.

I know that I have turned a couple people on to photoshop disasters. If you have not caught on as of yet, check them out. It is a blog where people send in bad photoshop done probably by graphic design wannabes. If you scroll down to the bottom of my blog, I have a feed from the site.

NOISY DECENT GRAPHICS


The next two images come from this site. The author is annoyed with the poor design of both this magazine and the book. While he does not get too detailed about the magazine other than to say he is embaressed for Esquire, the design really could have been better with proper shadowing.




Boy, did this Brit get mad about this OO7 book design. The choice of font annoyed him as well. It really doesn't seem to be in balance does it?

Lastly, be responsible as a graphic designer.
The next photo is of an actual light switch from a doctor's office. It kind of puts a new spin on that one class exercise that we did.

And, of course.......
Come on guys....Kansas is a red state- 63% to 31% red. Of course, Alaska is red too- 51% to 37%. Illinois is still blue though- 59% to 35%
