Enjoy this collection of logo designs I'm particularly proud of.
Hopefully you'll notice a common theme of simplicity, bold shapes, intriguing colors, and good typography.

Color Theory

Journal Entry: Sat Nov 14, 2009, 11:56 PM

I'm working on a revised version of my old color theory article. Mostly I'm updating the layout and formatting of information since what I already have there is accurate. Still, since I'm in the process of doing this update, I wondered if there was any further information people would like me to include. Anything related to color that you think might be useful to you or to other folks trying to learn a bit? Let me know in the comments.

I'm the Creative Director. I Direct the Creative Team and consult (consort?) with much of the non-creative dA staff on ideas, directions, requests, and all sorts of other neato stuff. I'm the guy who helps guide the dA designers to victory. Kerplah!

I tend to write too much, so I'll stop here.

Favorite Quote

The Public is more familiar with bad design than good design. It is, in effect, conditioned to prefer bad design, because that is what it lives with. The new becomes threatening, the old reassuring.
-Paul Rand

The Stamp Collection

Stamps are a cornerstone of the modern dA community, and this new Custom module makes it incredibly easy to share your favorite stamps.

Deviousness Award

Liquisoft has been a supporter of Deviant Art early since its inception. His vivid and creative style produces dozens of astonishing deviations, making him one of the most talented artists on this site.

I haven't seen such a great design for a long time. First I think wise design. Keep on doing this well and such a great inspiration!
