The end product now looks worse because of its misapplication. It does not look good either for the original design firm because people might think that the problem is with the design itself - when in fact it is the client who is not following the brand guidelines.Blue Chihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07449573689529063537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992467.post-57984744871779759922009-01-09T15:57:00.000+04:002009-01-09T15:57:00.000+04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Blue Chihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07449573689529063537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992467.post-75614598222554749072009-01-09T15:22:00.000+04:002009-01-09T15:22:00.000+04:00Ti3gib, you'd have to be involved in the branding industry to understand.NaBHaNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14705641388396300198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992467.post-88836304682996455392009-01-08T19:23:00.000+04:002009-01-08T19:23:00.000+04:00There's a logical fallacy in your agrument.TI3GIBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06553615244026993822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992467.post-28877048666329483222009-01-08T15:27:00.000+04:002009-01-08T15:27:00.000+04:00Thank you Suburban, and yes they are mashallah.<BR/><BR/>---<BR/><BR/>Ti3gib, it doesn't work that way, guidelines must be followed to not distort the brand whether it's sold or not.NaBHaNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14705641388396300198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992467.post-84061176507495777322009-01-08T14:11:00.000+04:002009-01-08T14:11:00.000+04:00Nice logo, it's a bit of a shame that nobody could saty withing the guidelines. <BR/><BR/>I didn't realise you worked for reality CG!
