...if it aint broke...something to be said for the design of NT.
- DutchBoy0

------------------------

QBN, Newstoday

------------------------not anymore though.

famewhore used to have "for a better tomorrow" on his site, but that's different from having a threaded conversation and a slogan similar to NT...
ok.. designers do this all the time, but arnaud has experience enough to know what's wise or not..
(he's probably reading this so I'll leave the conversation to avoid the annoyance)

Public Voice & Public Broadcast are not oringinal to Newstoday. They're both common concepts used within the PUBLIC realm, making it easy for mos users to understand there function.

"Take your balloon business to the next level with the QBN!" wtf?

oh tparsons.. it must be an unbelieavable coincidence if someone who often visits and was even an editor at a site (NT) and uses two similar things on work of his/studio own.
I've seen people doing what you say and after noticing there was already something quite near his idea/concept or graphic to go back and re-do it.
- johndiggity0
he did clean them up a bit...
- kodap0
sorry.. I shouldn't come here to look like I'm telling the world Araud Mercier is a copycat or something... I woulldn't like it if it was me.. so I regret.
in fact I really love his graphic work and photos. keep up the good work elixir
/end hijack
carry on with the thread

I love it. brilliantly simple. Great work, I'm so jealous I'll kill myself now!
- Neuarmy0
lol piper..
- whoohaa0
oh well next time if somebody shouts copycat I point him to newstoday and elixir
seems like you can get away with a lot if you're being jocked by designer kiddies
don't even get me started about the red cross emblem
as you definitely weren't

Hey guys - thanks for the comments - I read them indeed. It's always fun too read what people have to say about your work.
For that GiantStep layout, it's true Newstoday inspired me. I don't feel like I copied, I just used one thing that I believe works for a particular problem. Sometime I invent new solutions, sometime I found them already existing - do we have to make everything from scratch for each project?
For the patterns, well It's says on the bottom of the page that I found them on the internet, probably at the same place you found yours Kodap. I just re-did them.
Anyway, just thought I had to say something... Cheers and thanks for your comments!

You are a true inspiration for me. I love your work. Very clean and detailed. Not over done. Keep doing what you do!
peace!
