About my design

by Joe Flip   
Massive consumption of cow for hamburger. See it like a codebar not like an animal.

even though i entered this contest too, i have to says this rocks! i could see the barcode being slightly more subtle and being brown (same as the cow) instead. in any case...very damien hirst and kudos for the design/concept.

Love the concept & the way the slices become barcode lines, but the cow itself looks a little... mutated XD

Yeah thanks everybody. The barcode is just here for remember the consumption. I think that's justified.

Very well done. Just because barcodes are used a lot doesn't mean this isn't a good design. This is very well done and very well thought out.

cool concept!

It's an okay starting point. the art needs to be cleaned up, and you should change the typeface to something like OCR-B

shortee113 on Nov 20 '06
thats awesome!! And it would totaly work with a pig or a chicken too... and barcodes rock!

thecurlmaster on Nov 20 '06
no offense, but I don't really like the design, but I did have to do a double take when I saw THE NUMBERS! Just for that, I give it a 4.
Joe Flip
   Joe Flip on Nov 20 '06

I just commented on your new version of this, and I have to say that I like this one better, but what I said about the powerful message is still true, if not moreso.

Bravo!. I do agree with 317537 that the barcode may look better in brown as is the cow. Nice concept. I'd take it on a nice peach shirt myself. And as one who grew up with cows, that's a nice cow. :D
