creativeprose - the weekly newsletter for creative professionals, by CreativePro.com | Where Creatives Go to Know
Editor's Corner: No Tax References Here

While almost every other American paper, TV news show, and blog is focusing on taxes today, this issue of the creativeprose newsletter is a tax-free zone. No last-second business advice! No wry human-interest stories about long lines at the post office!

Instead, you'll find only tips -- and a few laughs -- for designers, photographers, and illustrators. And if you want to be distracted even further, pipe up in the "Worst ever logos?" thread in the CreativePro forums. I don't know why dissing poorly designed logos is so much fun, but it is. Guaranteed to take your mind off of... something.
