Coke Cans

One week ago the Pr*tty Sh*tty iPhone App became available. And today I’m totally excited to share the very first pairing submitted via iPhone. Hopefully the first of many!




Pr*tty
When Coca-Cola returned to this simple, elegant design for their cans, we all knew something good was happening over there at Coke HQ.

Sh*tty
And yet somehow, that goodness hasn’t managed to trickle down to the Cherry Coke Zero division. Cherries with holes in them... hmm... so the pits are where the calories are?

And can I just take a moment to comment on typesetting each letter in the word “zero” in a different font/weight? And by comment I mean smack some sense into.


A HUGE thank you to P*S* Reader and iPhone user Brent Morris for the submissions.

Go here to learn more about contributing to the cause. And here to get the P*S* App.

Slomin's Shield and Brinks




Pr*tty
Ownable colors. A nicely drawn shield shape. And a name that’s fun to say. Is it bad that I want to rob this house of its Slomin’s Shield lawn sign?

Sh*tty
You know that friend of yours that thinks he does an awesome Christopher Walken impression? This is sort of like that.

Snappy Appy



Today I’m proud and pleased to announce the recent launch of a new iPhone App for Pr*tty Sh*tty.

Some of you may recall me posting poll questions about the creation of this app a long while back. Since then, I’ve been working with some talented young guys known as Doomed Mobile who generously donated their time and expertise to put this together. Thanks so much to them!

The app is pretty simple stuff. It’s designed to help P*S* readers contribute images of the designs they encounter on a daily basis. All you have to do is take a photo, or pull one from an existing album, then tag it, and send it in. I’ll take it from there.

I hope those of you with iPhones (running the latest iOS) will take the time to download it. And, better yet, take the time to use and send in your submissions!

Thanks everyone.
