"Look all I'm saying is that we are primarily a group of dark dramatic cover designers. I'm not complaining, I'm just saying we're just touching on the brink of what design has to offer. If we aim to be the best then we should expand, take over the world, liquefy the assets of the enemy, spread knowledge, and adopt new methods that we haven't tried before. The party parrots want in to this deal and I don't know how much longer I can go about asking nicely."

"I know we're floundering like a fish out of water, but what else is there for us to do? We all only have so much time. The world isn't conquered in a day."

"And isn't Mya usually the one going on and on about taking over the world? Why do we need to do it?"

"You don't have to be evil to take over the world. Just look at the internet."

"Comparisons are a weak form of humor."

"Shut up."

"Speaking of Mya. Where is she?"

"Well apparently meeting Kiff was like looking into a mirror. You know how vain she is, because you know...mirror metaphor. She and Kiff are probably off sacrificing virgins or raising the hounds of hell or something."

"The last time I saw them, they mentioned something about corning their noice group in a chat and torturing..."

"Oh great. Make sure we have a back squad to evacuate their group in case things go south."

"Kiff rules Hell. I don't think it could go anymore south than that."

"Why did we pair them together?"

"To be fair, it was a random name generator that put them together."

"Oh, fate brought them together. Freaking perfect."

"Guys, back on topic. Can you feel it? The darkness coming in? I hear silence again and it's not good."

"Guys."

"Slackie has gone off the wire. He talks more than we do sometimes."

"Guys."

"Photoshop has been crashing more and more often."

"Guys."

"The world is changing."

"Guys!"

"What?"

"I think we're being recorded."

"Sh -- "

Hmm, that was weird. Oh well...

For the 2k party we will be doing another Q&A (question and answer) segment because the last one was loads of fun. Drop questions for us in the comments. They can be addressed to individual members or the whole group. We will try and answer every one of them. Please mark them with Q&A so we know they're for the Q&A

August

August. It's next month. That's it, that's all we have to say about it.

Or do we?

Keep a close eye to see what we have planned.

And to close things off today

Back by popular demand...

We have our graphic critiquing exercise. Critiquing is a great way to start thinking critically on work you do, either for yourself or someone else. And it's easier to see things wrong when you haven't just spent ten hours staring at the graphic.

 If you don't remember, here's what you do. I'm going to drop some graphics down below. You tell us,

A) what's wrong with it

&

B) how to fix it on the program you are most comfortable with

We have two graphics for you because the person writing this couldn't choose. Credits go to whoever made them. Critique away. Mention which graphic you're talking about when you're talking about them.

a)

b)

Yours Truly,

The Guild
