They say, “A picture is worth a thousand words”.  I do love a great picture visual or conceptual….but for me, the typeface is where it is at.  I obsess over the type used in on billboards, magazine ads, stationary, and logos.  Logos……now that is a whole different matter….I love a great logo.  I even stalk [...]

Techy Tuesday — Organizing a Garden

By admin | Published: April 13, 2010
