E.C. Post 3


For this extra credit post I found a neat gift bag in the store that I work at. I like the overall design of it because it is so simple but yet you know that it took some time to get the design just right.

Just looking at the image I can see many different designs from the diamond plate background, to the rivots on the red circle and the gradient found in the GARAGE part of the label. There is just so much graphic design everywhere you look.

Besides graphic design, I like the underlined saying "Repair and Despair under one roof" That means so much, beings as I know some stuff about mechanics. There are things that you know how to do, like change the oil, the fuel filter, a hose, a belt...even a radiator, alternator, water pump and so much more. However, if you do not attach it correctly or that is not the problem and you spent all that time and money for something that did not fix the vehicle, I get is a pit of despair. By the way...depending on the vehicle, you will usually bust your knuckle somewhere trying to fix something.

Oh, this makes me laugh. My father is my Mr. Fix-it and he constantly has bandaids on. I often give it a "first-aid" kit of superglu and bandaids - his two favorite things!
