@Sugarenia – the figure is definitely a volleyball player, the illustration was based on a reference photo of beach volleyball (As @heather pointed out, its a spiker).

@heather – unfortunately, not yet. This work was completed when I was at my previous employment, and as such, the timeframe of the project is out of my control. Hopefully it will go live soon

sugarenia -

the figure is indeed a volleyball silhouette. A spiker would look like that.

Excellent article. Good practice or not, I’d do the same thing in your shoes – I prefer to have peace of mind when working on Photoshop, and 30 minutes of extra time is worth it.

On a totally unrelated note, I think this figure you used is a football one, no? Because I can’t think of any real-life volleyball situation that’d be looking like this.

But since your client approved that, scratch that

Interesting comments.
My thought is; no need to apologize for adding value. I am glad Google and Mozilla keep beating my expectations and adding value of what a browser could be. I am glad when my local grocer hands me a coupon at the check-out isle. I seriously doubt anyone has ever damaged an industry by adding value to the product or service they offer.

Excellent thinking and great job on still finishing the original just in case. The redesign looks great. Your client definitely made the right decision and your logic behind the redesign is well thought out. I’m excited and I’m not even your client.

Great post and thanks for the opportunity to learn from you.

Jay, i agree with you. Sorry to above. I love what i do and im sure you do too. You get more pride out of the finished work if all the elements are 100%. If you left the old logo on the design, im sure the website wouldn’t be on your portfolio.

30 Mins to jazz up the design, time well spent.
