@PopBase It’s awful seeing many people are rather protecting someone’s bad behavior of throwing water at a performer whose aim is to make the audience feel happy. In my culture, throwing water is a curse gesture. That is the most demeaning thing to do to someone. Why attend at all?

Most best criticism I’ve received on my works are personal, in-person, and instructive; if not constructive.

@theChrisDo said it once. Almost like he predicted this will happen on twitter, but I had no idea it will be @X .

Designers love to complain when a rebrand doesn’t align with their sensibilities. Realize this. If companies never rebranded, who would pay your rent? Rebrand → good or bad is purely subjective. Someone got paid. Think on that the next time you express that it wasn’t necessary.

That’s the hard part; as we can all see what’s millions of people are ranting about Twitter’s X logo.

@theChrisDo The problem with the X is that it ignores people. People who have invested some emotional connection to the blue bird. And people ignore brands that ignore people.

@theChrisDo How about the popular opinion? “A logo should not necessarily say what it does.” The logo X is not the problem. Of course its execution may not be “on type”, as it’s diagonal stroke is not optically corrected yet. The problem is … 👇🏾

@clairestrickett Most often than not, a redesigned of a logo is an issue of application across all the brand’s touchpoints; and most importantly with interactive media platforms and usage requiring certain pixel specifications. Which I doubt can be achieved with the old in this very case.

Why should the idea of a multicultural design history be a debate?— in a 21st century w/ metaverse expectations; or a world that continues yearning for better experiences each day. Design has a heterogeneous cultural past, but only a homogeneous cultural history. #designhistory

@theJeremyMura Whichever way you decide on, you would be successful if you WORK HARD. It’s in the work, not the “self” or the “degree”.

Oh noooo! I always revered the now old @VanderbiltU logo, having revisited its earlier brief and creation with reference point that makes so much sense and cast a rich meaning anyone can relate to. I’m curious what might have informed this change to a “HISTORY” logo style?

Asking for feedback on a design can be so tough, but I can't think of a time when I've ever regretted it.

@logogeek @fiverr Solving logo theft situation on @fiverr or any platform is not about suing the 1+ billion non-designers acting 🎭 out the design profession, and denigrating the works of designers. The way is to sue platforms who are encouraging design theft.

@logogeek @fiverr The design profession has been like “a child’s play.” All you need to do is appear as a child and you can play some. No law and order. The design profession is the most “inhumane” profession in terms of how it protects its members (designers) from non-designers.
