So many of you ruin perfectly good designs by throwing in unnecessary typography. Quit it. A good design stands alone. If it requires explanation, then it needs to be revised.

Listen well, all of you:
Just because you can use a pen tool in Photoshop, it doesn't mean that you're a designer. Design is art.

Mediocrity is a killer.
I refuse to give credit to mediocrity.
I believe that those who design should strive to excel.
I believe that designs should insipre.

I am not a great designer.
But I live for design that is great.
So great that I'd wish I'd done it myself.
And that is what I give credit to.

Nothing else is worth putting forth into the world.
