“Is it Exyzt who did the light show?
Because, if not, it looks like this thing is a serious Rip Off From Etienne De Crécy Visual”

this is exactly what i was thinking when i watched the ema’s. it’s also that their performance wasn’t as good as etienne’s. there were some strange hearts and stuff flying randomly around and well … i just didn’t liked it.
look at etiennes performance, this is just incredible (music too ;>)

Thanks so much for the cool link! Too Shy to Stop writer Eric Wilkens just wrote a review of The Killers' new album Day and Age. You can read the review here.

Funnily enough me and J were chatting about this last night! But I don’t think we’ll have a straight forward forum… but certainly a place for people to voice their opinions, just not as permanent AND hopefully not as bitchy

Though this part of the new site will probably be developed last as the main content is more important to us.

I agree with Tomi to an extent. I was off sick a few weeks back and game back to god knows how many pages of links. You guys are sucking up my time at work

Not the place to talk about it but what the hell…. is a forum on the cards? A few things have come up in the past that I’d love to discuss with you guys and I feel that a decent forum is lacking in the design world right now. Being a veteran of Dreamless.org, Yayhooray, HumHum and Fused I know how powerful these places can become. I also know how they ultimately turn into bitch-fests and go into self-destruct. Just wondered what the general opinion was on forums in the design world.

I hear ya Glenn and Jack. It wont stop me from checking FFF daily, but just miss the focus on graphic design.

At the end of the day it’s about inspiration. Lovely pieces of print, and great typography, etc, will always be heavily represented in the content we post. However, the more that comes from the fringes of graphic design, and beyond, the better.

Hey Tomi, shame to hear that you feel that way. But I’m afraid that things are only going to get worse!

The new site will still feature the usual design goodness but it will have sections that will be far more random and unrelated to graphic design in particular. The way some of us see it is that if you just look at other peoples designs it’s more influencing rather then inspiring. Don’t worry, we will still keep a section that recognises the very best of design in multiple fields.

We do try and keep a high standard of work and there is a lot of things we don’t post for the reason that it’s just not good enough to be featured.

In the end though we will hopefully build a site that makes most of our readers happy.
