The CD cover/liner notes you did for me still stands as one of your greatest achievements.

Thanks Jen. Sorry about the hyper emoticons– I’ll have to see if I can tone those things down somehow (I didn’t design them or even know that they would show up on the site). Anyway, I wouldn’t count out a logo for yourself just yet. Few industries invest more deeply in their corporate identities (some say “branding”) than biotech…

I think your shit is brilliant. Ever since your UBC logo, I’ve looked at suspicious logos more carefully, often finding similarly creative stuff. Your style has always impressed me. So it’s interesting to read this entry, never considered that a designer would have such a problem, but it’s obvious once you described it.
Lucky for me, I’m a biologist and don’t require a logo. But even luckier for me, I have a genetic preference for 5-pointed stars. That’s a pretty great logo, because it is not stylistic, it rhymes with my name, and they can get tucked in places without making a scene.
I bet you wish you had something great like that. Maybe a circle, or a hexagram. Nah, nothing as cool as a star.
At least you’ve got style :)

Thanks. Yeah, I was way into ‘shading’ and ‘chrome’ at the time.

Awesome. I love the ‘shading’ from your 95 logo above!
