andrewharrington Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 the viking face doesnt even fit the style of the rest of the logo. these people have to learn to use others' work for inspiration rather than plagiarism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the world of business man! Everyone is always looking for the easier way to make money. Nobody cares about a good functional product anymore, they just want the $$$ in their wallets!

pcgd Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Stealing other's work isn't the world of business. The world of business is providing clients what others can't provide, quality product. Those that steal are either already failures or soon will be failures. I'll admit, quality standards are down in most things, but stealing is not the norm.

I'll admit, quality standards are down in most things, but stealing is not the norm. But how many true quality businesses do you know out there? Yes there's a lot of them that care about their clients but there's also a lot them out there who only want to do what they have to do. Rarely do they go beyond what is called of them to service a client. When people are given the chance to make more money while providing less services they'll often go with that over servicing the client and taking less money.

pcgd Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Stealing other's work isn't the world of business. The world of business is providing clients what others can't provide, quality product. Those that steal are either already failures or soon will be failures. I'll admit, quality standards are down in most things, but stealing is not the norm. But how many true quality businesses do you know out there? Yes there's a lot of them that care about their clients but there's also a lot them out there who only want to do what they have to do. Rarely do they go beyond what is called of them to service a client. When people are given the chance to make more money while providing less services they'll often go with that over servicing the client and taking less money. I know plenty of good businesses. All the big ones are there cause they provided something orginal and thoughtful. The likes of Microsoft, Nike, etc. had to provide good product at the forefront of their business to become what they are today. I do see you're point, and I understand there's the bad apple. I understand the are alot of them. You are right, there are alot of spinsters out there only to make a quick buck. But I don't think there is the need to have such a bleek outlook on the world of business. There are alot of quality designers and other businesses out there that do make innovative product and care about their clients. And maybe its cause I'm involved with a small business and I don't see the big corporations first hand. But in the world of design, if you don't provide quality, orginal product, you will not be a success. That's why we have no clue who "designed" these logos for Waco/Cincy. They are failures, and hopefully they will always be failures.Oh, and Gmac rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just used to our competitors undermining us sometimes, low balling prices, but then it comes back to bite them in the ass in the end as well as the client. I'm just pointing out that a lot of company's don't care about the long term, they just want the $$$ quick and easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
