Looking for some feed back. I'm doing a logo for a startup who films racers and remanufactures porsche rotors, amond many other things. These are not NASCAR racers but more intermmediate racing. Demographic is male 35-60, wealthy, big spenders. Their big want is something sweet that people will...

@Russell Good point, talked with the printers and this shouldnt be a problem after reviewing the file, a handful may shift he mentioned, but on the whole they will print up nicely. @Gianluca no prob I'm always glad to have my work critiqued, I'm testing more options with the text right now as...

I've been wanting to use spot UV for a long time and am super jazzed about it but I want to make sure I'm not going overboard with it. Front The logo will be spot UV and the shadow will be print Back "Hello" will be spot UV, everything else print. I added my logo to the background which will be...

Thanks Jordan I have considered creating multiple versions, I will take your advice and tailor each one to the specific job. Right now I have somewhat of a resume/CV hybrid. I am based in the US. I'm not sold on not excluding portfolio work yet, I did however check out your CV, classic! Using a...

Thanks Balders, I really appreciate the information you shared. While this is not a CV, some of your points do resonate. I am partial to having a picture so I will probably keep it. Maybe it would be better to put "References available upon request." Or something of that nature I am still iffy...

I have been working on my personal Resume, there is still some dummy text in there but I want to know what your opinions on the layout and feel of this are. This is my first time using a grid to design - which I'm getting the hang of, trying to find more resources for using the grid in print...

I am still fairly new to designing for actual clients. Shirts, business cards, etc... One thing I am lacking on is an understanding of how to correctly use the pantone color books. I will give a couple of scenarios. In reply to to this post feel free to suggest good reads that have helped you...

No doubt, I mentioned to the client when he first sent me these that he would need to find the orginal designer, and ask for permission to have them recreated, and used in his clothing line.

Thanks for the info Squiddy, I'm doing my own research as well... Part of me doesn't want to do these shirts just because they are in bad taste (personal preference) and as a christian myself I hate seeing these shirts....anywhere. If I did decide to create them, I would add a clause in my...

Hey thanks everyone for the feedback, this critique stuff is great. I agree that the first one does resemble more of a medical logo. I would like to play around with the top right version to make it a bit more "abstract" to lead it away from the doctor feel. Maybe like a cobblestone cross could...

Hello friends, first time posting in design forums for critique. Let me have the raw emotions and criticism you have. This is for a Baptist Church who is re-branding and looking to drop the "Baptist Church" - hence just "East Side" The concept behind these 3 ideas is to be friendly, Inviting...

Hello, I have a client who would like for me to recreate 4 shirts that he found online. They are all "knock offs" of other brands for example: A shirt that says "Faith Book" instead of "Facebook" using the FB color scheme and elements etc... Same with a home depot one, and staples. Basically...
