Honestly thought there was a chance it was a racial slur. Sorry to come off as shallow and pedantic. TIL Thanks

Totally. I remember in 2010 looking at icons and thinking 'holy crap' at how gorgeous and intricate they were. I remember seeing some of the iconfactory stuff (like the twitterrific bird) and the panic transmit truck and being blown away. Even the original LayerVault icon, stunning. Flashy? Of course! But damn, I was in awe the whole time.

See "Red Indian" in the Native American name controversy wikipedia article under the heading Obsolete and unacceptable terminology.

Yeah :) Our main feature is to "Pick" articles, so I used the Pick circle that's also in our logo in a quick illustration

Mmm awesome.

So we all agree, this is a dead horse.

I'm having a lot of trouble pulling together a portfolio that looks remotely like I'm a designer. My best work is usually scribbled in a notebook or on a whiteboard. None of this is attractive to say a recruiter or CTO that's used to slick designer portfolios.

Any advice?

nice!
