I wonder how long this new Pepsi will last…
More swooshy A fair amount of pixels have been spilled over the new Pepsi rebranding. The mark has even won Top Dishonor from the Brand New folks, while others like it, for what it’s worth. The more I thought about how I felt about the new identity, the more ridiculous I felt about having any […]

Capri Lanes
Dayton, OH Driving back from breakfast this morning, Dan spied this sign in the distance. It was worth taking the long way home and pulling into the parking lot for a photo or two. I suppose it lends some balance to the Governours Square sign I posted earlier this week. Both represent styles of design […]

He-Man and the Masters of the Univers
I collected He-Man figures and look what happened to me So I had this t-shirt concept (above) that’s been brewing for a long while.

And that color […]

Man am I looking forward to being let down by the big parade and then making it up by stuffing myself silly tomorrow. Be well, all. Current music: […]

I agree wholeheartedly and yet bookmark with abandon. What’s over? iMomus looks at what’s […]

Behind the scenes
A week later Folks have asked how things went down last Friday, so I’ve put together a really long, long-winded page about what was going through my head for each volley. Behind the Scenes: My Experience with Layer Tennis. Me? I’ll be happy to be an observer watching today’s special Halloween Edition match between Brian […]

This afternoon? It went down.
They call me Bunyan [ + zoom ] Ever heard of Photoshop Tennis? It’s this thing where designers hit a file back and forth, adding, subtracting, and mixing it up. There’s commentary along the way and at the end, a winner is declared. It’s called Layer Tennis now, because it’s not limited to Photoshop. I […]
