Bowling score screens, boring design right? Well someone has to do it even though it isn’t really that glamourous, it’s one hell of a challenge.

I couldn’t help but realize just how functional and practical it all is, and just how many variations are out there!

It’s always challenging designing something that is functional for the general public.

Google unveils new look: Enters the world of subtle drop shadows

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010

The old Google logo is about as the old as the internet, having gone through a few revisions it was still a little rough around their edges.

The new logo is a nice overdue improvement (in my opinion): just check out that nice subtle drop shadow, minimal bevelling and bright, web 2.0ish colors.

Also, If you try to save their logo on the search results page.. you will find that it is now part of a large sprite. Nice.
