Rapper Pop Smoke unfortunately passed away in February and his debut album is set to come out soon. The cover was designed by Virgil Abloh who as I’m sure most of you know is the man behind Off-White and a very famous designer. The cover itself is getting flamed online and will now be changed. Personally I think the concept is cool, the execution though is terrible. Whatever Virgil did to erase the background behind Pop (which is the first photo that comes up when you google his name) looks incredibly amateurish above his hair.

Found these in Bunnings yesterday, they’re supposed to be plant pots with a digital print.

Only problem is, the digital print wouldn’t have been any bigger than 500x500px, meaning it looks pixelated af on the print.
 
Also there is no stroke around the port logo. Whereas the Geelong, North, and Saints logos all have an appropriate white border around the logo to distinguish it against the background.
That could be in their branding guidelines for that old logo... The black of the logo is an outline in itself.

Was in a clothes shop with my wife once and saw a summer dress that had a digital texture screen printed all over it, couldn't have been more than 200x200. So blocky and had jpeg artifacts all over it. I almost threw up.
