Always consider the overworked and underpaid people at the end of the line who don’t have time to deal with your clever packaging idea.
(The ice cream is supposed to be displayed and stacked “upside down” but, when inevitably it isn’t, it’s extremely difficult to read the flavor or anything else on the package because it’s, uh, upside down)

Let's compare the three — three!!! — totally separate ways to save PNG files in Photoshop.
① "Save for Web (Legacy)" is the classic interface we grew up on, and the only one that supports animated gif. (How legacy? They save as "Adobe ImageReady" files, discontinued in 2005 😅)
② "Export As…" is the new, "modern" interface for saving files in Photoshop. "Modern" in this case means kind of a weird UI, and missing a lot of options and features. But it's pretty zippy and doesn't block your other windows like (Legacy) does.
③ "Save a Copy…" is the wildcard. I think it's the only way to save a 16-bit PNG in Photoshop. And — oddly — this approach gives you three compression settings that "Export As…" does NOT have!?!?
I love "Save the smallest PNG from over a hundred possibilities!". drstrange.gif
I am glad Ferrari is partnering up with Jony Ive and Marc Newson, because FINALLY someone will design a car for multi-millionaires
(Actually, Marc Newson's Ford 021C concept was my dream car right around 2000. It's the perfect encapsulation of the style of that time, a Deee-Lite/CD-ROM/Dreamcast/iMac/Virgin Megastore car. I still want one today!!! But the Fun Design Train now only stops at Luxury Station ☹️)
Pivoting my lazy joke into a Ford 021C appreciation thread! The trunk opened up like a drawer! There was also a green one and I always wondered if it would have a different name, since 021C is Pantone Orange! The ceiling looks like it used electroluminescent wire lights, too good
FYI, today's rendering seems to match 2019's leaked model! And the coaster looks to have a massive show building for indoor show scenes? Keep it up, Universal!!!
When I was a kid there was a funky, late-70's mall in downtown PDX called "The Galleria", in a converted department store.
The Galleria had an equally funky logo that I always liked as a kid — but also always made me feel a little weird.
The logo reminded me of other visuals surrounding my childhood, like the 7-Up signs at the corner store, or the "Pinball Number Count" sequence on Sesame Street (one-two-three four five!)
Eventually The Galleria closed, and later it became a Target, and the logo was history.
One day, fairly recently, I was talking to my parents about this lost logo and how it made me feel. And my dad goes down to the basement, brings this piece of paper up, and hands it to me.
Yeah. Turns out, my parents designed The Galleria logo.
