“Art on the Internet is Like Rodney Dangerfield … It Gets, ‘No Respect.’” by http://JTK.CA
I’m constantly evaluating where the ideal spots in my images are for my http://JTK.CA
logo and for the focal part of each image, since social media cover
photos do a crappy cropping job on images. Even as a graphic designer,
it’s a constant challenge, because various social media entities
crappily crop my pictures differently than other entities. I hate it,
and I love it; I’ve always been a nit-picker, and I love a challenge!
And I have the same challenge for profile pictures, since more and more
social media sites crop profile pics into circles. So, I generally
create each profile picture as a perfect square and make sure that, when
cropped into a circle, everything important remains in the image, since
the four corners of the square will automatically be cropped out by
twitter, flickr, and now, even facebook’s circle cropping. It was nice
before the internet, when images were left alone, and not hacked to
pieces as thumbnail images, profile photos, and cover photos. Art on the
internet is like Rodney Dangerfield … it gets, “no respect.” — Jonathan Tad Ketchen
