  grazie!
  well, the site might need some update. or a re-design. it's hard when you work like 14 hours a day. hmm...minus 2hr for qbn fun. hah. before this look, I had a flash site and ofcourse run to slow loading. grr. so moved on to dreamweaver based, which even the hardcore CMYK designer can make some RGB magic.

  Ofcourse its better to have a few and really good pieces then many so so looking.

  I think the sketches make the view smile. but that me. Now this was not suppose to be democratic, but who else (except killerqueen) things I should drop the sketches?

  ciao,
  åkrok

  I would take those sketches down, focus on your main craft.

  • hm. its a 50/50. i'm not sure.– akrokdesign1/5

    how about if its packaging sketches?– akrokdesign2/5

    I'd agree focus on the graphics– kiekelly3/5

    If you like the sketches, put it in a blog where you can just post whatever interest you or drawings you did.... but I agree with the other guys, keep your portfolio clean with your work.– hiiee4/5

    I agree.. definitely take those sketches down. :P– TeeJayDoubleU5/5

  I once handed over a whole lot archived graphics to a designer when a client sold his business, the new designer was using Times instead of Bembo, when I pointed out to him that he should be using Bembo, he explained that they didn't have it and that "Near enough is good enough".

  • hah.– akrokdesign1/2

    i ment it was a good guess.– akrokdesign2/2

  well, I thought it was good guess and after a quick look. corporate rounded looks just like vag rounded only different was the kerning.
  ofcourse what ever the font are, thats the font you use. not something near enough.

  Well Times and Bembo are pretty different. I think Corporate Rounded may actually be a clone of Vag, although I can't find it on the web anywhere. But in any case, it looks good and so does akrok's work.

  • thanks.– akrokdesign

• epete22

  sketches are good to show because it shows your ability to think.

  • think first. :-)– akrokdesign1/4

    i agree with epete22.– airey2/4

    some of us can think without sketching– animatedgif3/4

    Yeah ability to think is great, but if the sketches were of some importance to his work, then maybe they would be appropriate.

  btw - i dig the illustrations. if you offer that skill the advertise it man. it's one more tool in the skillset that other may not offer when clients consider you.

  just me 2 cents. i could be wrong.

  • i agree with epete22 btw. just felt the need to reinforce his / her comment.– airey1/3

    yeah i think they are good even do they aren't really that updated. i need some newer ones. :-)– akrokdesign2/3
