This is a good graphic! And i worked with this artist collective back in 2002-2004.

This is the future?

I actually think they only used TWO fonts in this one, so maybe there is hope. Still loving the rainbow treatment of the fonts, though.

Wow this one is ridiculous

It seems like I’ve been concentrating on chickens wearing shoes and hats lately, so here is a link to one of the most awful “flash animation splash pages” I’ve seen in years. Did someone get paid to make this? Who? Will they be at this party?

Quick review of “gay graphic design features”: outer glow and inner glow (often on the same design element, go figure), a rainbow flag, People of Color on the ad to look “diverse”, multiple fonts (shamlessly mixing serif and sans serif), a cherry (!) and what the heck is that orange-y thing on the right side?

Starlite Lounge 2/9/10 Community Speak Out

This matters a lot to me.
This situation is about power — capitalism, racism, classism and community organizing.
There is more information about the fight at starlitestays.wordpress.com

Medical Relief

admin — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 18:13:19 +0000

As some of you know from my experience working with the victims from the improperly maintained levees in New Orleans, medical attention after a geologic/weather event is absolutely the most important thing. Doctors Without Borders will be helping the people of Haiti long after the newscameras leave. My prayers are with the people of Haiti, and with my neighbors here in Flatbush, who are waiting for news of their loved ones.

Art. Sigh.

This was a good winter for white guys at the big museums. That isn’t necessarily a complaint, because I happen to like Kandinsky and the ideas and work of the Bauhaus. To all the artists I know (and I mostly am only friends with artists)– Let’s make 2010 our year, there is a lot to be done.

This weekend in gay graphic design
