Graham Smith — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 21:02:59 +0000

Was cool to be able to offer an FFFFound invite up like this, shame I could not offer more, but it's one invite per 'invite' so to speak. So I narrowed down the list of potentials, then randomly chose one name from 10.

Stargate Atlantis Helvetica Poster Starring Joe Flanigan

Graham Smith — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 20:24:52 +0000

Based on my previous poster design 'The Silence of the Lambs', here is another. This time round, basing it on one of my favourite sci-fi shows, Stargate. I have focused on the lead character played by Joe Flanigan, alias 'Lt. Colonel John Sheppard'. Choosing one of my favourite quotes, 'I hate those things.'

Dodge Viper Logo is Duffy Duck Upside Down

Graham Smith — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:31:08 +0000

You are now aware that the Viper logo is Daffy Duck's face upside-down. The power of the viral post... Within seconds of this being tweeted last night, Twitter retweets and such like went through the roof. It's an interesting image of course, but one wonders if this is purely accidental or possibly a sort of 'easter egg'.

The Keyboarder Logo Design – Just For Kicks

Graham Smith — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 21:23:04 +0000

Some logo and typographic foolishness. A 'spin off' idea from a 'legit' logo project called 'Fifty Two Keys'. Where the obvious subject matter of piano keys etc seemed to be unavoidable. During the project, several other 'fun' ideas came about.

The Silence of the Lambs Helvetica Movie Poster

Graham Smith — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 21:47:04 +0000

A self initiated poster design based on an actual illustration of Hannibal Lectar that I drew some years ago. The drawing was done in pencil and charcoal only. It's sat in my archives for years, so felt I could add some more life to it by creating a movie poster from it.

Do You Use Previous Logo Design Concepts for New Clients?

Graham Smith — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 09:17:17 +0000

An interesting subject for a post me thinks. Time after time, us logo designers come up with 100's of ideas in the process of satisfying each client. We amass these unused concepts and use them and modify them for future projects.This post is more of a question but also an answer. It's hypothetical, but not. I am also curious to know what you would do in this following situation?

Graham Smith — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 20:11:08 +0000

This post touches on a subject that pops up more then several times every week. A number of logo design quote requests I receive, usually end up with the client asking how much they should allocate for their budget. For this article, I am assuming we are talking about typical freelancers, working from home.

Minimal WordPress Themes from Modula

Graham Smith — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 13:26:01 +0000

I have always had a fondness for neat and clean WordPress themes, but either I am too fussy, or really, there not that many truly worthy 'minimal' themes. They all seem to suffer from something that I can't quite put my finger on. One Wordpress theme from Modula really appeals to me.
