Time for a Laugh!
The silly season has arrived and it’s time for some much needed comic relief! Here are some of our favourite design-related spoofs and snippets.
1. How much should you spend on a business card?
Before you opt for that low cost print run, consider this scenario (copy here).
2. What's in a name?
Your website domain should be short, snappy and memorable. However, read it from all angles to ensure it doesn't have any unintentional double meanings. Renault picked this up and developed it into an advertising campaign.
3. What is the best design application ever?
Photoshop? Nope. Adobe Illustrator? No. Corel? Not a chance. We are proud to announce...
4. Printer problems?
Does your printer always give you attitude when you're running late on a deadline? You may relate to this real incindent...
5. How not to work in PowerPoint
We've revamped quite a few PowerPoint presentations in our lives - here's a humorous rundown of the common design mistakes (we've seen them all):
6. Comics, comics, comics
Lastly, our favourite comics of the year include:
Understanding Technical People (if you've ever spoken to our programmer Taka, you will relate!)
The 8 Types of Design Critics (do you see yourself in any of them?)
How to Start a Search Engine From Your Garage (the longest Dilbert compilation)
Burning the Midnight Oil (we can relate)
Technology Demos (would be fun to present websites like this!)
Happy holidays, from all of us at Helios Design!
