Seven Deadly Sins: Barbie-Style

_cokwr: Grab your old Barbies, grab your child’s, buy a new one, or go to GoodWill or something. Would prefer it if you didn't steal it. Wouldn't want to be committing one of the sins as you were setting up the photo, would you now. ;) Then, take a picture of a scene with 1 or more Barbies demonstrating one of the Seven Deadly Sins: Lust, Greed, Wrath, Sloth, Gluttony, Pride, and Envy. Do all seven or just one. Take a photo and upload it to Flickr (label it the sin), post it on your blog, and tag it as requested. Explain your process and how you got to the final scene if you choose to do so., _cpzh4: Visual, _cre1l: http://nogoodadvice.somethingkindaooooh.com/2011/03/08/seven-deadly-sins-barbie/, _chk2m: callean/Call_lean, _ciyn3: 97, _ckd7g: , _clrrx: , _cztg3:

Re-brand ‘Em

_cokwr: The logo is an important part of a company. For this assignment, you are to choose a company and re-brand them. Take their logo and remix it, or start from scratch and make it your own piece of art. Need inspiration? Here's a cool site (http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/) that blogs about recent changes in company logos, and posts both the new and old versions. It can really highlight what subtle changes can do to a logo. , _cpzh4: Design, _cre1l: http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/, _chk2m: Chris Randles, _ciyn3: 118, _ckd7g: , _clrrx: , _cztg3:

_cokwr: Let's celebrate our 106ness- create a graphic, find a a photo, manipulate an exiting image to somehow represent the number 106.
