I'm seeing them everywhere. Peeking out from behind corners, in my face at the store, blinking past on TV.
Stick people logos.
The other day I figured out why they bother me.
1) They're easy to make, and they don't require a lot of talent.
2) There's an implied universalism that irks me. Isn't EVERYONE running in the 5K? Taking Crestor? Signing up for the Conference on Communication Interfacing? You're not on board with the Western Australian Institute for Medical Research as they lead the way to a healthier future?
Please companies, try a little harder, and demand more from your logo designers. After all, stick people logos have been around a long time.
