1. Created a vector temple arch design in Adobe Illustrator which we bought into Adobe Photoshop as a smart vector object. The title font and the grunge background were also chosen at this point as per the client's brief:
Adobe Flash Player not installed or older than 9.0.115!
]]>"The Rule of Thirds" is a simple compositional rule of thumb used in all visual arts (photography, painting and design).
The rule states that an image should be imagined as divided into 9 equal parts by 2 equally-spaced horizontal lines and 2 equally-spaced vertical lines (see opposite), and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections.
Proponents of the technique claim that aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition rather than simply centering the subject would (which this rule discourages).

As Google has become a household name over the last few years - many people ask "What font have Google used in their logo?"
The good news is that the font is named Catull BQ, created for Berthold in 1982 by German designer Gustav Jaeger. The bad news is that is that it is available to buy online from around $99 and upwards.
If however you want to create another logo like the Google logo (using the same colour scheme and styling), then why not try GoogleFont.com. See above for one I made earlier.
Some harmless fun otherwise...]]>
