B&Q have to try and get their website out their as much as possible - as it doesn't have the stores name in the url, which in itself is quite rare. Nearly every truck lorry and van of major brands have their website on it - it's more about brand awareness. And yeah the url does look really...

If you've got an awesome* portfolio of work and are willing to work for free or for expenses on a placement / internship / short term to show how good you this shouldn't be a problem. I've had a few jobs in my time - all have asked for the old 'educated to degree level' bit - not one employer...

And remember your safe area and type area too...

I had a very similar thing happen to me on a smaller scale. Came up with various identities - narrowed down to one - amended it - supplied it - client didn't pay as their 'web designer friend' came up with an alternative, fair enough but pissed off. Found out two weeks later they'd used the...

Clever. i like this. Bit of tweaking on your type and its a big thumbs up from me. Always like a good use of negative space and a simple clever idea well executed.

So what you're saying is that someone who hasn't seen a QR code before will use this device that will take them to exactly the same place as the url that sits next to it? Clever. You think a potential client will think you're clever for having something on there that serves no real purpose...

Really? Thats a massive waste of space if it does. And pretty useless considering the url is to the left of the QR code. Pointless.

Where does the QR code take you to?

Pufferfish Fistbump Design ??? Really? Interesting name...

Do I like them? No. Would i buy them? No. Why? Because i could make them myself in about 5minutes. And better to.

No. This. Is. Not. Design.

Male 29 No. No. No. No.

The qualifications most places (studios and inhouse) ask for is a degree or similar. They'll probably ignore everything else. I've a few qualifications that i don't include on my CV, like my ladder usage, kinetic handling, and others ive picked up over the years because i know they'll be...

The only qualifications IMHO worth getting is a Degree or a HND. Being a designer and having a qualification in Photoshop is pretty pointless, you as a designer should know Photoshop already. As already said - an awesome portfolio of good quality work and a well designed spellchecked *true* CV...
