Flags of the World Redesigned

This is what it would look like if we redesigned flags of different countries. I think it's well done and made me laugh a couple times.

The funniest part was the coment at the end.. that IS how the advertising and design market works. One reason I got out of doing logo designs is not only can't you please everyone, you sometimes can't please ANYONE!

"Can you move that a bit to the left?" "How about a nice kitty cat over there?" "Why can't we make it look like the Coke logo?" "But I like purple.." "Well, not THAT much purple.." "You know, maybe you're right about purple after all.."

We have a cartoon on the bulletin board in the small conference room, a Dilbert deal.

Supervising the company website, the pointy-haired boss insists, "Make it webbish"

Middle frame they're all looking at a monitor, then last frame the boss says, "but not too webbish!"

Regards,
Keith

There is a few they have joked about on my graphic design forum. I thought I even knew a site where there was a list, but I can't think of it.

"Make it pretty"
"I'll know it when I see it"
"Work your magic"

I absolutely hate the "I'll know it when I see it"..

I turned down $2500 worth of work last year because a potential client had absolutely no vision about what they wanted.. been there, done that.

Then you end up doing countless revisions.. not worth the aggravation to me. I don't care how much they're paying.

"But you're the designer, you tell us what we want." I don't like it either when this is such little info to go on.

Have you seen this one yet?
