Celebrex

I like the layout to this ad because of how words are what make the pictures.

Pump it up

I like this find because of the colors used in the ad. I think the colors yellow and that bright lime greenish color go good together and make the ad stand out, especially with the orange-yellow in the background.

Bob's Brainwaves


This is my favorite find so far . . . I love the boldness of Dylan's profile - simplified but still specific and elevated by the subtleties of the delicate values within the face.
The text layout and flow is phenomenal; the way the words seem to move through the hair into the brain and blossom into a windy trail behind the figure - almost as wings - lends a very appropriate lyrical quality to this piece.

Simple layout but liking the bold hierachy as well as the textured paper look.

Power of Contrast


White text stands out over top of this chaotic graphic.

Inviting Colors. Love the hand drawn circus font.

Chris Cureton

Awesome transition here. Reader/Viewer can clearly get the message.

Vintage Hip.


I really like the lettering and graphics here . . . The line-work in the P & J is really engaging and cool.  The high contrast, stylized surfer image is iconic and directs the placement of both text and product logically and with attention to composition.

Simple. Bold. Pure.



I like the boldness and simplicity here. The image is dramatic, and paired with the power of the words, create a solid and direct statement.  This is a direct appeal to the consumer's conscience. . .

ROCK ON



The cropping on the arm looks very good. The photo for this ad make sense to me; Especially the tattoo on his arm and the silver skull ring. In the second image I thought the smoke up close seems so realistic and make me want to cough because I felt like the smoke was in my face.

Jewelry ad


i really dont understand this layout, seems to me that for such a expensive line of jewelry the ad is very messy and hard to understand.

this image grabbed my attention because of the contrast in colors, and i really like how the lemon grabs your attention and the "waves" move you down to the product information.

talib kweli flyer

This was a flyer given to me over the weekend, i really liked the choice of colors, and the way the text was laid out, without too many overwhelming graphics, the only thing that i would change are the wings behind the artist, they just seem out of place to me.

Bless the Child


I think this image is funny and sweet at the same time because when I look closely I see a little girl holding her mother or sister in her arms. But, it's the most precious thing I have every seen.
