i'm not big on the splatter, i see it everywhere, it just doesn't WOW me... needs work, maybe something more original... not trying to be mean but... come on.

Ok, so MaguMaster... I am seriously about to start a HUGE vendetta against you. Every time I see you post it's to bitch about some aspect of a design that doesn't need changing. Also, none of your criticism is anywhere near helpful, which just pisses me off even more because it shows that you yourself can't design for crap and therefore shouldn't be criticising these designs in the first place!

Ikarusmyancestor, what does the ability to design have to do with having an eye for what works? MagusMaster has the right to give his opinion, and usually it's what needs to be said, whether we like it or not.



I can tell you whether a movie is good or bad, and what was wrong/right with it, but wouldn't dream of attempting to make one myself. I can tell what clothing looks great and what looks dorky, even though I can't sew to save my life. And I'll bet most gymnastics coaches couldn't possibly do the routines they expect their young charges to accomplish.



I'd love to be an artist, but I know my skills are lacking. So I sit on the sidelines and occasionally offer my opinion. I would be just as critical of my own creations, if not more so.



We all should take honest criticisms to heart, in order to improve. Creativity is born from limitations. If Magus says the splatter effect is overdone these days, perhaps the artist could say, "hmm, how could I accomplish the same idea in a new way?" That's where you get the WOW factor...using the restrictions to force the birth of something original. I've taken enough classes in both art and creative writing to know that placing a boundary is the absolute best way to draw out an artist's true talents.

the grey makes the colors pop more, because i think since grey is more subtle the colors are just... wow. But i feel its a tad bit plain for me.

Well thank you Mephitine. Finally someone has justified criticism to a point that hopefully everyone can understand. As a design student, I find my ideas criticized a lot, and you take it as constructively as you can.



Not only that, everyone has their own opinion about things. Oh well.



As for you Againstxme, I personally like it on the gray, off center. It makes your eyes move a bit more than the vertical design.



I absolutely love this design.
