Reddit’s Graphic Design Subreddit Bites Off More Than It Can Chew

As a graphic design aficionado, surely you’re familiar with the graphic design subreddit! the online community recently had their logo critiqued, because of course, what else do designers have to do? While it did have some design flaws, this prompted the original creator to call on the community to design a better logo, leading to a flood of submissions ranging from genuinely thoughtful, to outrageously bad. Familiar design no-nos, like Papyrus and Comic Sans fonts, uneven spacing, and Microsoft Paint doodles abound. Some users put forward the “graphic design is my passion” meme as the new logo, while others poked fun at the job market with logos reading “Why can’t I find a job?”. After the dust settled, a few serious designs emerged, but for now, the old logo remains, flaws and all.
