    Default View of things

    I have just realised that graphics has changed my view on almost everything.

    I just realised when i saw an advert for a car, normally i would just watch it and thats that. But I looked at the deisgn of the add and stuff like that, same with the car.

    I am always doing stuff like that, whenever i see a picture, or anything that can be digitally made my mind tries to see how it could of been done and the pro/cons of it.

    does anyone else do this?

    Yeah, same. I worked out what font a pub/driking bar used once. Just by looking XD. And like.. I only buy tshirts that are really well designed.

    Shizlikethat. Its great really XD

    I totally know what you're talking about man. My usual reaction is, "God, that font is terrible. Arial anyone?"

    I think working with graphics really does open up your mind and change the way you look at the world.

    yeah but atleast you have a reason for thinking it looks bad.. not like most haters.. besides yeah i buy shirts only if they're designed well.. and also ugh just most things, graphics welcomed me to the media, i mean i already was beyond regular reasoning.. but ovver the past few years it's definately been awesome..

    Yeah, i do this all the time - i've even picked out certain effects/filters that have been used in an ad before.
    It's cool to see something like that and know how it was made.

    Yea, I'm the same way. When ever I see something with graphics i'm thinkin' of how it was made and if I'd be able to reproduce something like it or not.

    My girlfriend hates it. I also hear all the tone intervals (an interval measures the distance between two notes) in the everyday life. She hates that too. Like on the bus when we put our bus cards in a small machine it makes two notes that is a minor seventh.

    lol@Rabies. Sorry, but that's just funny.

    I always look at, like, people's essays and am, like, "That fonts x. WHY did you use size 14? It looks way better in 12. And the line spacing's too obvious". But I'm not really too bad on that front. However, I do have a habit of view sourcing websites and cursing people for either not commenting, using inline CSS styles, and some other shit.
    Disks are always full. It is futile to try to get more disk space. Data expands to fill any void.
