Back when I was just finishing design school, I had portfolio review with the guy who runs this company.
In his comments he submitted to my professors, one of the things he said was "...lack of talent obvious."
I was pretty pissed at the time but didn’t really give it much stock.
I’m glad I didn’t let it effect me because he's in no position to judge talent, seeing as he is in short supply himself.

that sort of attitude helps drive a person to do better.
he's probably a cunt anyway

I agree with smellvetica.

yeah that is the most uninspired POS site for a designer I have seen, especially someone who is asked for criting students.
Big cup of shut the fuck up to him..
move on.

wow, what a sh!tty thing to say... and as it turns out, ironic too.
I love this sample description (in a pop up, no less) in his portfolio:
"...Our solution was to design an eclipsing sun logo to represent the dawn of a new age in technology."
That is pure brilliance.

You should crit it for him :)

Funny thing is this happened over 10 years ago. It only came back to mind when I happened on the his site when I was looking through a directory of design companys.
I have thought about sending him a little crit, but wondered if it would seem petty. If I do I have permission to use the lens flare comment?

nah, don't do it...that just brings you down and you're too talented for that...if you contact him, just be honest. I think its ok (and probably good for you) to send him a "look at me now" email.
If it were me, I'd even mention that comment he made and thank him for it because it gave you fire to become a kick-ass designer.
People can read between the lines more than you realize.

take his scalp

we should all crit his site out of nowhere, all within 1 hr of each other.
some people need to be taken down a peg or two.
