DIG 315 Week One in Review

This first week made me look at a lot of things differently. 1st off, "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" should be "A Few Good, A Lot of Bad and Way More Ugly Than Should Be Allowed". I never really gave it much thought and I am the furthest thing from a professional, but so many of these adds, etc. could be so much better with just a few basic changes.
Now that I am looking at these with critical eye, it makes me realize how many of these that I definitely would have skipped over because they didn't grab my eye or were just too difficult to read quickly. Some of the ugly just needed to have better alignment or contrast and they would have moved right to the good, also I was surprised to see how many needed just font changes to make them better.
If more business owners just learned the basics of Graphic Design, I believe they would be pleasantly surprised by the increase of business they would see.
