a much better approach

A fantastic CC licensed poster/image/potential tshirt. Love this, especially the lime green colour – it’s already printed out for my desk space… and now it’s my new iPhone wallpaper too!

Now to actually make things. I’m fine on the excitement front…

calling the design police

I spend a lot of my day negotiating/talking (same thing, surely?) with our crack team of designers – love them to pieces but they ain’t half picky! This website made me splurt tea all over my Mac.

Design Police features a bunch of handy, downloadable stickers/signs perfect for peppering over a document that just doesn’t cut the mustard. The design boys love them. I’m going to make them mandatory in press week.

Perfect. Just perfect.

Rosie is the daughter of illustrator Bill Zeman – after he completes a drawing (sometimes to her brief) she critiques it. He’s been recording her “suggestions” for three years and they’re hilariously enchanting, especially if you’ve ever spent time around small children!

Example:

The Brief: I’m going to tell you what to draw. Draw a dragon sneaking up on a girl. She’s picking flowers.
The Critique: Daddy it’s not supposed to be like that! He has dog legs! I’m so mad at you! I’m going to erase those legs! Daddy why did you do those legs??? [collapses in tears]
Job Status: Rejected

See, sites like this are why the web’s great.
