You often hear and see online and/or in books that trends are bad for you , that you should stay away from them , websites like logolounge show them every year ( they don't actually say you should stay away from them but showcase them so you can keep your eye sharp and your logos unique).

But what do you think of trends? do you think that they are bad and they should be put down, or rather be used as a guideline against what not to do?

I think that you should be up to date with them as they help you avoid doing something that you will regret later. But i also think you should use bits of them, i mean if people wouldn't like something, some bit of it as little as it would be, they would not be trends they would just be logos, so i try and find the original concept behind certain trends and keep it in mind for the future, however i do not encourage you use them completly.

sooo i got me a nice black wacom bamboo a6 wide for my personal pleasure

i was having some work done and i wished i had me a tablet as it would have helped me work faster - and i mead vector logo work - i mean it even works through paper so it's better than scanning my pencil sketches and then turning them into vector, this way i just trace them twak them and there you go, not to mention that i can do detaild work freehand

might start some illustrations soon

anyway, if you have any tips let me know, i know it's not the best of the bunch but for the moment to mee it;s golden

i recommend you get one

okay so i'm having a remake of my gallery and i removed almost half of it because i think that i grew a bit and now i need to be more picky about hat i show

sooo pepsi recently rebranded ... apparently it'd a fad these days
i just wanted to know what you guys think about the new logo , compared to the old one: better or worst?

my point of view:
it has a little something special but for some reason it makes me think of Tnuva (weirdo)
i probably just need to get used to it and then i'll be able to deal with it better, but until then i don't know if i really like it as it make me wonder if this is not just a response to coca-cola's dynamic strip...the new font i don't really like by the way....

what do you think?
