About Graphic Design
The secret of good graphic design is knowing what to take out, not what to put in.
Too much information
Without focus, a potential audience is going to move on to someone else. As an experienced designer, I'll find the main message and communicate it clearly enough to drive that message home.
Oooh, pretty
Pretty is different things to different people. Your graphic designer will research your target audience and make sure that the presentation appeals to the audience, not necessarily other designers.
The bottom line
That's the line at the bottom. Seriously, I've made a couple of important points, and should set a good example.
About Web Design
DIY
You could create your own website in MS Word, with Wordart to make it look really sharp. But your clients will know the difference.
or Look like a pro
There's heap of really technical issues in creating a website. In plain English: there's fast code and fast graphics, search engine friendliness, protection from spam and attacks, interactivity, colour harmonies... you should just get a professional.
About Illustration
Illustration is about showing ideas. It can also complement a story by creating an "at-a-glance" visual. A powerful way to attract attention is to ask the artist to place your product/service in a fantastic or out-of-the-ordinary setting. Watch this space for an example.
