design quality is so subjective it strikes me as a miracle any client ever accepts and pays for anything. and yet our entire livelihood depends on getting it right in one take, otherwise we would be charging an ampunt unacceptable to all but the fattest clients
- I'm getting kind of depressed over heremagnificent_ruin
- It's funny, we were just talking about this at dinner yesterday. It's all a long con, really.pylon
- magnificent_ruin0
if you didn't see the name on it
- I can tell you like this.Jnr_Madison
- Interesting composition, given the title. I'd like to think there's a tactile value with this.NotByHand
- I don't.
I've seen your FFFFound before, and we have pretty different tastes.Jaline - I don't purely like everything I ffffound. sometimes it's to remind myself of an ideamagnificent_ruin
- Same here.Jaline
- I do need to be reminded of that once in a while though.Jaline
- I never look at ffffound, I had no idea you had added it.Jnr_Madison
- (I don't mean by you in particular)Jaline
- I don't love this, but I like aspects of it. A big part of the appeal is that it was photographed on yellowmagnificent_ruin
- the orange background helps it a lot. beautiful grid work._salisae_
- and size range._salisae_
- too much leading and a widow! *dies of heart attackmax_prophet

I thought I should advise you all that after waiting over an hour for a pizza to make a journey of fifty feet, I called and cancelled it. I had a tone of incredulity in my voice that I feel sure will send ripples of concern through the management levels at PizzaHot4U.
I am now grilling a spicy bean burger to have on a crusty roll.

which is why designers tend to rely on "safe" solutions that have worked for them in the past... it's all such a crap shoot

should I stop now?

The hardest part, rand, is getting clients to divorce their own preferences and opinions and act on what's best for their organisation. Worse yet is dealing with a committee of the above who can't see the difference between what they like personally and what's actually in the best interest of the project.
- further complicated by the fact that I've given up on guessing what is right for their organizationmagnificent_ruin
- haha, I hear you.
So in other words: Further complicated by the fact that I likely don't give a shit.pylon - pretty much all i care about is making something that looks goodmagnificent_ruin
- magnificent_ruin0
ok
- Don't like the laminate floor.pylon
- Wait, what was the question?pylon
- hahahamagnificent_ruin
- neat idea for a brochure about smoking. looks like a lighter. otherwise it's ok. looks pretentious._salisae_
- I guess this has run its coursemagnificent_ruin
- It's 'okay'... nothing special. The composition is a little wacky and colors blah...NotByHand
- you mean, formal moves for their own sake?magnificent_ruin
- Exactly. The overall composition feels incoherent in my opinion.NotByHand
- Is there more on the back?Jaline
- why don't you "photoshop" it to find out?magnificent_ruin

I have a crush on Karl Wolf, even though every picture he has kind of makes him look like a douche. I think it's because he's a Lebanon-born, French Canadian.
- I mean I like him for those reasons and his looks; he's not a douche because of his heritage.Jaline
- This admittance will lead me to humiliation, I am certain.Jaline
- *googles. retchesmagnificent_ruin
- I did the same thing XDkalkal
- I knew you would...Jaline
- NotByHand0
I, like you guys apparently, add stuff to my ffffound mainly because something will an idea, process, color or something else that I want to remember at a later point. Inspiration would be the word, I suppose.
But how the hell are you suppose to find something in your ffffound account when you need it someday?- Yea, a month down the line and it's gonna take some effort to find whatever you add nowkalkal
- Don't ask so many goddam questions. Just add shit to fffffffffffffffound and then lord your membership over your peers.pylon
- Will do, Pylon.
*adds sticky-note to screen.NotByHand - forcing you to graze through it maybe is a good thingmagnificent_ruin
- It's kind of annoying, especially when you have duplicates.Jaline
- MY POINT EXACTLY. FFFOUND vs A FOLDER ON YOUR DESKTOP = NO COMPETITION!Horp
- magnificent_ruin0
- hmmm?magnificent_ruin
- nae_salisae_
- is that no, or yae?magnificent_ruin
- I have no idea what's going on there. A completely dysfunctional attempt at doing something "cool".NotByHand
- Do you have to know what's going on though?Jaline
- I didn't mean intellectually... I meant compositionally.NotByHand
- flipped/assymetrical... cropped negative/positive gambitmagnificent_ruin
- I suppose. Maybe it's just trying so hard, that it feels like a mess to me.NotByHand
- _salisae_0
- is this a submission for reaction as well?magnificent_ruin
- yes_salisae_
- Meh.NotByHand
- a style that has become overly familiar, but possibly if you were seeing it for the first time...magnificent_ruin

I'm on safe ground here, right?

Rand, maybe this will help.
Basically a fortune-cookie generator for designers.
http://www.guyd2.com/widget/obli…- I remember this from way back when it was cardsmagnificent_ruin
- Yep.
Ideo has similar cards but with fancy pictures, etc.pylon - I had this app once.Jaline
