what!!!!!?

you don't know how to use Illustrator and Photoshop?

Damn...for some reason i just kinda figured you did. The basic shit is pretty easy to learn. I'm sure you could pick it up rather quickly. Get someone to hook you up with a copy and start playing around with it. The Bible (ie photoshop bible) series of books are pretty good at explaing everything.

very dope diggity.
when I see this shit I just get all amped up to go design some really cool shit...then I remember that I work in a complete creative void of a shit hole. I really need to get the fuck outta dodge. I've got a Bulldog staring at me in Illustrator . :haha:

seems pretty valid to me, with as many people that call themselfs designers as there are, the same shit seems to get done a number of times by diffrent people, some by chance some by pure theft, i would imagine.

aesthetic apparatus is my new favourite design co. granted, the nature of their clients probably helps in developing such an eclectic/hip portfilio.

and in regards to the redundancy in design comment i say this:

in this day and age you could probably throw a rock into a crowd and hit a "designer". alot of what we're seeing in this post isn't neccessarily what i'd define as traditional graphic design. in my opinion alot of it falls into the "graphic art" niche. you know, neat looking pictures that have absolutely no meaning outside aesthetic considerations. which is exactly why most of this looks so cookie-cutter. content driven by style. people go online, whip through design is kinky or newstoday, see something cool and emulate it without ever even considering coming up with their own concepts. and i'm not suggesting that everyone should be original, simply that you have to determine content before you can apply some sort of visual solution. and looking at a lot of contemporary design i tend to believe very few people bother to stop and think before they jump to illustrator and begin tracing deer or clouds or whatever the flavour of the month may be.

i'd bet the farm that if you asked most designers today why they used helvetica in this logotype or why they put those arrows in the corner the answer would be "because it looks good".

right.

yes it's all clothing (t-shirts i believe). me thinks it functions like an open forum for designers to submit their work; if a design gets enough attention from possible buyers, they produce. i think that's how it works?

i used to be 'ahead of my time' as far as graphic design was concerned. i know i was doing really cool stuff that didnt look like everyone else.
then i quit trying, and the whole world caught on and caught up. now i'm too jaded and too overwhelmed to continue trying to make a contribution to any of it.

and as joker said, there is some serious ass struggle biting going on. it's really pretty sad. dude is not only an amazing designer, but from all my experiences, a really cool guy. people need to get off the dilsnick.

thats design for you though.

tons of biting...and since the client is the one with the money...they usually get what they want....whatever's current.

I recently did an illustrator piece. shit was far easier than I realized. import the photos you want traced in and voila...instant 'hand made' art.

...i feel what kats are saying about graphic design these days, marks are afraid to step outside of that box, and come with some truly original 'ish...with so many heads in the game, it's hard to seperate the real visionaries from the faking jacks...but, thank god for those kats in the field who really love the art and make it their business to keep building and pumping out fresh, hott, visually stimulating shit...anyways

i think in part is that Illustration has gone computerized as well.
so its also illustrators becoming graphic designers, because of the use of the computer.
i think the illustrators have an upper hand at it because they are more about composition/color/flow and only need the extra education of typograhy to make their "designs" that much better.

its not so much as "graphic design" but like you said, "graphic art"

Originally posted by kidlugz@Oct 15 2004, 02:24 PM
aesthetic apparatus is my new favourite design co. granted, the nature of their clients probably helps in developing such an eclectic/hip portfilio.

and in regards to the redundancy in design comment i say this:

in this day and age you could probably throw a rock into a crowd and hit a "designer". alot of what we're seeing in this post isn't neccessarily what i'd define as traditional graphic design. in my opinion alot of it falls into the "graphic art" niche. you know, neat looking pictures that have absolutely no meaning outside aesthetic considerations. which is exactly why most of this looks so cookie-cutter. content driven by style. people go online, whip through design is kinky or newstoday, see something cool and emulate it without ever even considering coming up with their own concepts. and i'm not suggesting that everyone should be original, simply that you have to determine content before you can apply some sort of visual solution. and looking at a lot of contemporary design i tend to believe very few people bother to stop and think before they jump to illustrator and begin tracing deer or clouds or whatever the flavour of the month may be.

i'd bet the farm that if you asked most designers today why they used helvetica in this logotype or why they put those arrows in the corner the answer would be "because it looks good".

right.
