Just showing yall what I've been up too!
 Above are some quotes by Mr. Paul Rand one of the best graphic designers of his time.  Just a little ad for ydoyouthink.com basically quit smoking, it stinks, it kills, and its gross. The background wording are facts from the ydoyouthink.com website. |

The first one I like and the second one is nice looking, but the concept is escaping me. I get the background with all the warnings and cautions and such, but not sure what the pretty design in the middle has to do with quitting smoking.
Then again, I'm probably being far too literal. |

If your talking about the arrows, they use them in the commercials and what not but usually theres a circle around and arrow. Plus the arrow goes with "live above the influence". The frame i just decided to throw in. This post has been edited by superstitious: Jul 6 2007, 11:37 AM

yea I guess I kind of agree with Rebecca.. the frame kind of throws it off and you focus more of your attention towards the frame then the concept.
I think its because its just to bold and big >_< Hope you've been doing swell! |

But I love the design and the ad. Hooray for not smoking. =] |

I'm loving them both except the smoking one makes no sense at all to me.

Ahh, I can't do that. I mean, changing fonts and their sizes. When I attempt to do that, they always come out looking messed up, and don't go well together at all
 I'd have to stick with maybe, two fonts, at the most.
