Many of my graphic designer friends put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into our logo designs just to see them BUTCHERED in actual application.  I was so pleasantly surprised when I actually saw my design in &#8220;action&#8221; at djpack.com and it looked GREAT!

		<description><![CDATA[
The high profile magazine Forbes opened a recent article on spec work with the following statement.
