Graphic Design: Using the Content Aware tool to really mess up famous typography

Date
23 July 2013

Here’s a good one for anyone who’s a fan of typography, memes, Photoshop, pranks, or augmented reality. And that’s all of you nerds, right? Not to worry, we’re super into it too. There’s nothing we enjoy more than well-known imagery being toyed around with using modern software. Also, there is something rather magical about the Content Aware tool on Photoshop, right? Like, it’s almost too clever. The fact that Content Aware is designed to make things neater makes this whole Tumblr of messed-up images a little bit naughty, kind of the same feeling you get when you drink wine out of a mug. In some cases I think it’s an improvement. Submit your own while the craze lasts.
