Google Doodle History and a Nostalgic Showcase
Rachel ArandillaThe concept of Google has changed little since its inception. Google is a user-friendly and very useful tool for online searches. We know what to expect of Google already: a search bar to enter the necessary keywords and then in a single click, relevant results are returned.

Razzie’s Of Logo Design: The Worst Logos Ever Designed
JamalA logo is an image that is supposed to be the representation of an organization. The logo's job is to give off the same energy you would want people to receive when you describe the company or organization it represents. That being said, it is quite astonishing that there are actually people out there that are willing, and more importantly bold enough to, post a logo design job somewhere in the price range of $100. Some even are bold enough to disrespect the creative community even more by going as low as $50, some lower than that. The designers that accept these quite disrespectful jobs can't be fully faulted here, quite frankly they just don't know any better. For the most part, the people taking these demeaning jobs are either young starving designers on their last dollar with no solid client in sight, a relative of the person posting who plays around in Adobe Photoshop Elements every now and then, or they were daring enough to take it into their own hands after getting no responses. This treatment of logo design is of course going to lead to the inevitable lower creative standards set for this creative practice. With a key creative field being demeaned every day, a client base for this field with an 'ignorance is bliss' mindset, and swarms of people claiming falsely to be designers, what is there for real professional creatives to do?
