On Twitter the graphic for the Arsenal team has just popped up. It’s the same design.
Now they might be worth suing!

Or has our designer volunteer tweeter nicked someone else's design?

Yup. Totally fabricated storm in a teacup. I’m surprised how many folk got their knickers in a twist over it

Would have preferred it if they’d stood their ground personally, this smacks of somebody taking their chances to me. But if it placates the fan base, all’s well that ends well

Well the guy may have got lots of support on Twitter - but by airing his grievances in public probably hasn’t done his reputation much good. Anyway it’s been sorted - credit to the club

If they go red background and yellow text I hope Royal Mail kick up a fuss.

Maybe take a look at your avatar Mr Pot Smiley

I'm not commercially using or making any financial gain from it though...my 'crests' are clearly used to represent a tongue-in-cheek view of various circumstances during different periods at STFC.

Got a bit of free publicity out of it so everyone is happy, he missed a chance to go all folded arms looking miserable compo shot though, perhaps the Adver will oblige.

I assume he is either a) pretty new set up or b) bloody naive as companies have been doing the 'just do us a sample and we will see', the  using it shtick for years, its one of the reasons why my missus jacked in design (apart from for mates) at the first opportunity, that and the fact that she found Graphic Designers bloody irritating!  Cheesy

Get the money up front before doing anything for STFC. Don't do anything in good faith.

You're not a designer are you?  Sad

TBH finding that with just about everything in the last 12-18 months, spending way too much of my time trying to get clients (big/small/private/corporate) to settle sodding invoices to such an extent that with many new Clients, unless we know them, we are often seeking 50% of agreed fees to be paid upfront on commission before starting work!

The joys of the modern world....
