Well if you are feeling a little down on your own design skills at the moment, please oh please find somewhere where it is appropriate to laugh out loud. Because you will. And go to my favorite website: www.yourlogomakesmebarf.com (yes that says what you think it does). I’ve posted a few here, to give you a taste, but mostly what makes these so funny is the text that YLMMB writes to accompany the images, so please click the pictures and go read the text! (if you didn’t laugh you must be from a different planet or something, or not a designer, because this sh*t is FUNNY!
Also, may I remind you that these are real logos. Yes, real. As in they exist somewhere. I know, it makes me cry too. But it also reminds me that we, the educated designers, will always have jobs!
Hand Job Nails and Spa. Name Fail AND Papyrus. YES!

yo so I’m not like a total loser who loves puppies and horses. I’m just painting assignments :P Today they asked me to paint some horses, so I did. I go back to school in a month then I get to do graphic design stuff again. I’ll be beginning my thesis/degree project. I want to do something to combat world hunger using package design and information graphics. In the mean time, I’ll look for more graphic stuff to post, I know all these cutesy paintings aren’t really your taste or mine :) There was this girl in my middle school, a century ago, who was super obsessed with “cute animals” it used to drive me nuts! Better posts on the waaaaaayy!

I drew a wildebeest on roller-skates today :) fun using old fashioned nibs and ink.
