I approve! Some constructive criticism (if this is appropriate, of course: You could cut "mere" for brevity. Short is sweet, especially on posters.

Great work, Oleg. I really enjoy your work.

Switch the diskette for a CD ROM or a thumb drive or something more up to date for the computer example.

 

[roastpuff]

Oleg, something more modern for the "Hacker" part would work better. What about a mouse or a keyboard or as has been suggested, a CD? Perhaps a thumb drive?

Otherwise, great poster.

I like the idea of a mouse instead of a diskette. I'm also not so sure about the "mere things" part... just doesn't feel right to me. Maybe something like "objects don't cause crime"

 

[Acheron]

Update the hacker bit and it'll be perfect.



I love your work Oleg! Keep up the good work!

 

[DoubleTapDrew]

I like it. You might want to consider doing a moden one with up to date computer hardware as suggested and a newer carry gun like an auto or snubby.

 

[NeoSpud]

This is excellent, Oleg.

Updating the diskette is unnecessary; the idea is to transmit the image of a computer-related accessory, and for the photographic space quality it is really good. Any smaller, and the top of the poster would feel cramped. Great job.

I agree, "objects don't cause crime" reads better, IMO.

 

[WayneConrad]

Great art, great concept!

Another vote for "Objects don't cause crime"

Diskette is fine. Instantly recognizable. Mouse would be fine, too. Thumb drive would not be fine: Lots of people don't use them, and would not recognize it.

What does a lighter have to do with a hacker?

Just kidding, but I think the disk was more recognizable...

 

[Oleg Volk]

This image was done for a Canadian magazine, hence the use of a Webley.

 

[mccook8]

INANIMATE objects.

 

[Oleg Volk]

mcook8 -- I can't see any difference between my spelling and yours. Is something wrong with that word?

 

[ArfinGreebly]

Very Nice

Wonder what that would look like with a cordless mouse instead of the thumb drive.

It's a different level of obvious.

Good poster, Oleg.

 

[takhtakaal]

Use a Nagant revolver, and then you could write something about being a Russian revolutionary!

 

[Oleg Volk]

I don't have a cordless mouse on hand. Could try with a regular one and retouch the cord or have it trail off the edge...but not tonight. Need sleep. Need to do paid work.

Outstanding and thanks!

Sincerely,

Oleg:

Which Canadian magazine?

 

[WayneConrad]

A step backwards, Oleg. "inanimate" is unnecessary unless you're a lawyer.

What does a lighter have to do with a hacker?

Completely agree. The diskette is instantly recognizable. The thumb drive is not.

 

[highorder]

The 3.5" floppy disk is obsolete, so a hacker would have no use for it. I'm 30, and see the USB drive as ubiquitous.

I like the current version.

 

[beaucoup ammo]

Outstanding, Oleg! My only suggestion would be to change the 1st item to a mouse..sort of a "finger on the trigger" subliminal. Also, more recognizable as a computer related item.

Bravo! It's not easy, superb quality aside, to come up with the many ways of conveying a single message as you have done.

 

[savetheclaypigeons]

what was that green thing in the first image you speak of? Diskette? Is that a new fangled hacker tool?
