What to expect from a graphic designer

Good graphic designers are trained to do amazing things in the realm of communication. And many clients just see the surface: make me a logo, I like yellow, so you should use yellow.

Jeanne Moderno, this week’s featured font at Typophile

Jeanne Moderno Bold is this week’s featured font at Typophile; it’s being used for heads, titles etc. The experimental background on the home page changes as users post messages.

And huge thanks to Psy/Ops for not only doing the final mastering of the font, but also setting up this deal (actually, advertisement).
