Design Contest: Libya

Do some designing and help out a country!

The peeps at GOOD are looking to create a functional, better-looking Libya leaflet using an actual NATO slogan: “One Libya, One People.” They have been dropping propaganda leaflets around trying to quell the violence, but the ones they are using have not been working.

What they're asking for is something a little more compelling than this:

While I think the people of Libya are looking for something more than just well-designed pamphlets in response to their anger, it couldn't hurt to try.

Get Connected, revisited

Last summer I interned at a company in London called Get Connected (http://www.getconnected.org.uk/). They are a non profit dedicated to helping young people find 'help' and will connect you for free to your specific hotline. They were undergoing brand reconstruction at the time and needed new material..... so a year later I'm revisiting my first graphic design project.

here's the original.

Editorial Idea

how do people feel about this one?

Typedia

This is a pretty cool typography website I stumbled upon... its userface is not the best (doesn't always show you the fonts themselves, just their names, and when I was searching for a "japanese" font it was hard to figure out where to start) but I think it is a good idea in theory.
