any of you ever hide stuff in your client work?
i'll start:
my first client website was for a photography studio i worked for. using flash, i gave one of our sample images a hidden, pixel-sized button you could click which would start an animation where the subject (a baby) grew fangs, wings, and his eyes glowed.
while working there i ran the digital retouching department and hid various occult symbols in people's hair, backgrounds, etc.
a less "bad" thing i hid in a client piece was in this flyer: http://scarabin.net/portfolio/ar…
it's hard to tell in this small digital image, but the word "trauma" scrawled in ink lies amongst other ink trails in the figure's neck.
i'm doing a logo right now for a very high profile and extremely visible client and used a drug-related photo (blurred beyond recognition) for color reflections in the metal-finish surface.
your turn.

in a previous job where i was doing character licensing for mousepads i was doing a concept of Spider-Man where i had put the Superman logo in the background all ghost like. the art was subjected thru the Marvel office and was actually approved!!!!
it still wasnt noticed, i have pointed it out to many people who then brreak out laughing and then realize how noticable it is, the actuall size of the superman logo was 2inches by 2.5 inches its real in yo face!!!
but everyone's eyes go directly to Spider-Man instead.
i still smile when i see it in the stores!!! you can purchase the pad in Circuit City.

occult symbols, drug images, what are you twelve? I worked with this asshat who put personal messages about people he hated at work into print and video pieces. it's some pretty passive agressive nancy boy stuff.
