Gotta love it when people want to stick social media logos inside their company "logo." It's like those Russian Matryoshka stacking dolls.

I need a little help with identifying a typeface. The attached image is from a larger PNG file I may have to re-build in vector format. I've scrolled through pages of samples at DaFont and not come up with any matches. The lettering is pretty fugly. I could probably just hand-trace it and it...

I agree things like "INC" and "LLC" are pretty corny to include in a logo or sign layout. I can't think of any national retail business, restaurant chain, etc that includes that nonsense in their logo. Nike, Inc. doesn't stick their legal "Inc." junk into their Swoosh icon. Any major business...

In our shop we have Onyx running our two HP latex printers. We have RasterLink Pro controlling our Mimaki flatbed printer.

I have a few fonts that are somewhat similar to the one used in the attached image. But they're still not a match. I've seen this typeface before, but can't seem to figure out what it is. Thanks in advance for any help.

I love the ending of that SNL Papyrus sketch, with Ryan Gosling screaming at the graphic designer in the window, "I know what you did! I know what you did!!" Big laugh at the title card.

I wouldn't say Cooper Black is everywhere. If any typeface could be accused of being "everywhere" it's ***king default Arial. For each example in that video of a sign using Cooper Black they could have found 10 or even 100 using Arial. And the type would probably be artificially squeezed and...

I intend to check out the 2024 US solar eclipse, but I'm not sure exactly where I want to try to view it, probably somewhere to the East or South of Dallas as close to the centerline as possible. According to one map areas in South Texas will have the longest durations of totality in the US. As...

Flexi lacks some critical features on the design end of things. That's not to say Affinity Designer is all that advanced either (it pales in comparison quite badly compared to Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW). But at least Affinity Designer can handle advanced features of OpenType fonts. Affinity...

I ruined a lot of issues of Mad Magazine to see how his folded illustrations would line up. Al Jaffee was one of the greats and had the longest run of any cartoonist at a magazine.

Next year on April 8 there is going to be a hell of a solar eclipse across a good part of the US. I'm hoping for clear skies. It's likely a bunch of people "watching" the eclipse will be trying to videotape it thru their phones rather than actually be there in that very rare moment. One thing...

Obsessive phone use is just out of control. Saturday, I was driving down a local street toward a signaled intersection. A car up ahead at the intersection was just sitting there despite the green light. The car only started moving when the signal turned yellow. I guess the clown had to finish...

The "LLC" element looks like someone stretched Tekton quite a bit.

Overall, I don't have a very positive opinion of AI-generated art. Basically it seems like a hustle, using technology to completely de-value art and the skills it takes to create it manually. AI poses similar threats to creative writing and music. The people developing and promoting this AI...

It didn't take Red China to convince me of that.:D Seriously, there are too many Gen-X people my age who are stupid and stoned. The Millennials and Gen-Z people don't have a monopoly on being unreliable goof-ups. There are plenty in every age group.

The Chinese government's interests go a whole lot farther than just keeping tabs on "stupid young Americans." They really want to influence the outcomes of our elections. Obviously, going after young adults probably isn't the smartest of ideas. Young adults are notoriously stupid-bad at voting...

Nah, it's not Rockwell. Arizon looks like the winner.

Yeah. Facebook, Twitter, Instragram, Linkedin or whatever are not state-owned, state-controlled entities. That's very clear. The US government has to jump through a lot of legal hoops to subpoena data from those companies, which usually attracts a hell of a lot of publicity. And the gub'ment is...

I have no desire at all to create a TikTok account. Even though younger people appear to enjoy it the app seems like a big waste of time to me. In the early days of Facebook that app seemed really great. I was able to get back in touch with a lot of friends I had during my childhood and teenage...
