oh you media moguls. good luck with the new venture.

Speak Up will still host discussions on the more important and bigger-impact work.

Thanks for the condescension.

You know what I mean…

I changed that sentence to read more of what I actually meant, it is now: "Speak Up will still host discussions on the more higher-profile and/or history-laden work". Basically, meaning that whenever Apple, Target, CBS or Nike changes their identity we will discuss it here.

Better?

awesome spin off!! grreat work that :)

Guessing which new high-profile logo goes 3D/gradient/candy gumdrop....

Very cool. I look forward to the (hopefully) many articles. If only that site was up doing the thesis...

Nice stuff, Armin et al.

One note about useability: having the comments in a pop-up window allows one to look at the logo while reading the comments. As it is now, the reader has to keep scrolling up and down to see what the comments are talking about. That's not too much of a pain with five comments, but with twenty or more...

I welcome this with open arms. This will be extremely powerful as the archives build up over the years. A great to look back in awe and anger.

Thanks!

good bye speak up

hello weinbrander?

ok, so far so good!

Congrats on creating yet another useful site for the community, Armin.

You can stop with the "Why didn't I think of that?" ideas any time now...

:-)

Felix, knowing that you read absolutely everything that I write really keeps me going. I mean really, it's a bit embarrassing. But thanks.

Would it be possible to add a link on the site's root? It's a great idea, but I know I'll forget to check it once this post slips off UnderConsideration's main page.

Lovely!

I think this is a wonderful spin off. The Woodward's are happy.

Congrats on the new venture.

Okay, I just read the Pantone article and its (at the moment) 12 comments. I am so, so hating having to scroll up and down to see what the commenters are talking about. I can see five ways to avoid this:

1. I memorise every aspect of both the old and new marks, including all the kerning, before proceeding to the comments

2. I print (!) the page to have something to refer to while reading the comments

3. I open the images in new windows and resize them so that they are not in the way before proceeding to the comments

4. I don't read the comments.

5. Someone very kindly puts either the logos or the comments in a pop-up box and makes my reading of this lovely new blog pleasureable.

Note: The first four solutions are rubbish.

This is a great idea. Congrats.

Jeff, I can see the problem. I think there is a solution, but I'll need to test it out first. (Meaning it won't happen today or tomorrow).

As an addendum... You have no idea how many people complain about the comments on Speak Up (and blogs in general) being in a pop-up window as opposed to the "inline" comments in Brand New. It's a 50-50 toss up so it's impossible to please everyone, but I'll be darned if I don't at least try.

> Would it be possible to add a link on the site's root?

Anon... Site added to the list. Along with a badly-needed update of UnderConsideration news.
