How Many Social Icons Can You Identify?
One of the hats I wear is a freelance designer. I'm currently creating packaging labels for a line of protein drinks. On just about everything these days, social icons are requested elements. So I'm always updating my library with social icon artwork from the stock image houses. Here is a new grouping I received today and will be using a few of these for the packaging I am presently working on.
However, I have to bravely admit, that I do not recognize a bunch of these! I will not tell you precisely how many since this admission could not only embarrass me, but put my reputation in jeopardy. What if one of my clients sees this? I'm supposed to be up on current trends.
I bet I could safely say that the more icons you recognize, the younger you are. On the other side, if more of these icons give you a puzzled and confused look, the older you are. That is why I will be looking up the ones I do not recognize asap so I can instantly take some years off. What is your social age? If you're feeling too ancient, I will post all the icons' identifications over the weekend. So you too can be socially-young-at-heart.

Haha! I know what all of them but TWO are for and I'm 60 years old, so what age does that mean I am in Social Media terms if I can identify so many? Wheee! Probably just means I spend a lot or rather, waaay too much time on the 'puter!

Ahhh! You bring up a good point. If you know what most of these mean, then is it because you spend way too much time on the computer?? In your case, I don't think that applies since you've been blogging for a decade. You were blogging before most knew what blogging was. So you're a pioneer.

ReplyDeleteLol. I left that one in for the obvious.
DeleteI think I know about 3/4ths, of those some I recognize and think I have a educated guess about. But, others I don't even have a clue about. Lynne, please post a key at some point when you get them all figured out.
ReplyDeleteHi Tony. Yes, I will be posting what they all are over the weekend. I also came across even more I have not seen before.
ReplyDeleteI think the little guy running is me...away from this pop quiz.
