Photoshopped a hidden meme (possibly before “meme” was a common internet term?) into the shadows of a photo used on a very big super-corporate company’s homepage.

Over the span of like 18mo before he gave up and moved on to another venture I made MAYBE 100-200 lol.

1. one of the first "clients" I ever had would pay me like $20 a pop to remove the watermarks on industrial lightbulb product photos so he could use them for his wholesale reseller site.

You sound like a lot of people’s go-to-person to help them with shit. Solid solid solid.

I love the use of green and also chef’s kiss to warping text back then hahaha this is so rad and nostalgic thanks for sharing

I’m all for this 🐸☘️🌿🍃 green is my fave color

It was absolute puppy love for me and Text Warp in 2015. This is one of the first flyers I designed:

What was the worst or most “I shouldn’t have done that” thing you made as a designer?  Did you photoshop a grade or a coupon? (Don’t share illegal stuff lol.)

Hahaha, was this a frequently used service from this client? I cant imagine you making uh hundreds? A thousand? Just from removing lightbulb watermarks. I love that.

Thank you! I know not the most sexy, sleek of my work but it still somehow got that matrix-y internet zeitgeist thing we were so into across. That said, I will be starting a rumor that Charli xcx's creative team stole this idea for the brat album cover.

I was *stressed* about the doctors note because I am a giant dweeb but bills have to be paid.

Yooo I forgot about that. I did that too…no cosigners in my life 🫡

I get that but yes, bills need to be paid. Gotta do what you gotta do and you weren’t using it for evil so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

2. I helped a cousin envision his first tattoo by mocking an example off of google images, I found out later he just got that exact tattoo. 3. a doctor's note for someone to save their job.
