All things in the world are best expressed as GIFs. Whether it’s rage over a client or frustrations over problems with Photoshop, every designer can speak their mind in one simple GIF. Frankly, I think that’s the way we all should live. That’s why we published our first round of 25 GIFs only Graphic Designers Will Understand, and now we’re back with round two and another 25. Ready to feel the burn? Good. Because it’s coming.
When a veteran designer sees your font collection
When you’re feeling creatively blocked
When you land an amazing client
When you have too much design work on your plate
When your friend tells you that your design looks great
When a client starts asking for work outside of the contract
When you find yourself in the perfect state of design flow
When someone asks you the keyboard combo to do an action
When you’re late for a client meeting
When it’s Friday and you’ve got a huge deadline on Monday
When you put out the call for design help from your friends
When your morning to-do list looks ridiculous
When you try a new caffeine-laden drink to try to get going
When your day starts off perfectly
When you install an amazing update on your design software
When your deadlines just don’t seem very important
When there’s way too much copy
When you’re given a laundry list of things to work on
When you get too many emails from clients
When you get a new chair for your office
When you catch someone stealing your designs
When you go out to dinner with a client
When your designer friends are all over social media while you’re deep in a logo design
When Adobe Illustrator’s cut and paste feature breaks because of an update
When you get paid a lot for a logo design
