Propaganda is most well known in the form of war posters. But at its core, it is a mode of communication aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position, and that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. Although propaganda is often used to manipulate human emotions by displaying facts selectively, it can also be very effective at conveying messages and hence can be used in web design, too.

Notice that propaganda uses loaded messages to change the attitude toward the subject in the target audience. When applied to web design, you may experiment with techniques used in propaganda posters and use them creatively to achieve a unique and memorable design.

Free at last, free at last

by Perry Belcher on January 18, 2010

 

What a great honor it is to celebrate the birthday of our American hero Dr. Martin Luther King

In today's climate, the days, where true stand up heros are few and far between, Dr. King reminds us of the power we ALL have.

Today, to give your life for what you believe in is seen by most to be insane.

Instead we whine and complain, post on blogs or just try to pretend the ugliness of the world doesn't exist.

Dr. King's legacy has lived on because he took a stand that he knew might cost him his life.

That is a MAN! 100%.

So the next time you feel bothered by a injustice, stand up an fight. You might just amaze yourself.

Feel free to post your thoughts on Dr. King below
