Class Response - VOX critiques

A fairly common response during the VOX critique today was that in hindsight people didn't really like their design. I can totally relate to that. Sometimes things seem like good ideas when you are in the midst of them and when you have a design due in a few days. When you have time to look back and ruminate, however, you think of all the little things that would make the art or design. I'm guessing that this type of hindsight will never really disappear (unless you develop a huge ego and think everything you do is the best) ... even the designers LaRue interviewed mentioned something about looking back at old designs and thinking of things we would change. The feelings may not go away, but in time it may even out that we have the same (or hopefully a larger) number of designs that we are really proud of as we have of those that we wish we would have done better.
