Fan Art: An Explosion Of Creativity
The fan art community is one of the most creative and active online. Taking pop culture stories and icons as its starting point, the fan community extends those characters into new adventures, unexpected relationships, bizarre remixes, and even as the source material for beautiful art. Limited only by the imagination of the artist, the fan art world is full of surprises and brilliance.

the “we’ll give you credit” graphic design request was taken down pretty fast last night. Hopefully they do the right thing instead of just thinking “oops that was the wrong place to ask”
I’m a graphic design contractor for a large government agency. I’m the only contractor on my floor, and also the only “arty person” as they call me. One morning at about 8:27, a client walks into my cube.
Client: G’morning, I was wondering if you could help me with a graphic I need for this presentation.
Me: Not a problem, I’m actually just finishing up a few things this morning and can jump right on it. What are we doing?
Client: It’s actually really simple…
She goes on to describe what is actually a pretty simple graphic, and by simple I mean 4-6 hours or work, but easily doable by the next day.
Me: I like it. That’ll be really fun, and I definitely see what you mean about it tying the presentation together.
Client: Oh good, I knew you could help! I was so panicked when they gave me this for the staff meeting today.
Me: Wait, the staff meeting, TODAY?
Client: Yes!
Me: The one at 9:00
Client: Yes?
Me: The 9:00 in 18 minutes?
Client: Yes, it’s a really simple graphic
Me: There is no such thing as a 15 minute custom graphic!
Client: But I explained, it’s really simple. Give me the 15 minute version.
Me: I don’t want anyone here seeing a product coming from my desk that I only had 15 minutes to do.
Client: No one will know I got it from you!
Me: I’m the only graphics person here!
Client: But I’m really over the barrel here, can you please help me out?
Me: I’ll see what I can pull off. Please get out of my cube and come back in 14 minutes
Client: I’d really like to stay and watch.
Me: No, get out, and come back in 13 minutes.
It was awful. But what was worse: she loved it.
UPDATE: she has done this to me 2 more times. I have now officially told her no matter how simple I will not help her without 48 hours notice before her presentation.
I get these projects in the form of “I need it before end-of-day” at 4:50

I am NOT an official spokesperson for the technology and I consider many of the folks working on it to be friends,...
