What is Noisy Decent Graphics?
It's a blog.

What's it all about?
First and foremost it's a blog about graphic design and the life of a graphic designer. Sometimes the blog creeps into design in general and then some related stuff about communication, ideas and inevitably brands.

Have you got any jobs?
Nope.

Are you anonymous?
Errr, no.

Didn't you used to be?
Errr, yeah for a bit. But I'm over that now.

Why do you blog?
Firstly, as a bit of an experiment to see how all this works and now because it's a brilliant way to discover things, meet people, share ideas and add to my life as a designer.

Are you a planner?
No.

Do you want to be a planner?
No.

Can you review my book / portfolio/ website/ companies rebrand / logo / the cool article I sent you?
Maybe and probably. Send it over and if I have the time and if I feel I have something to say then I'll write about it. But please don't send me something and expect a four page review overnight. Ta.

As long as it's not for commercial use then yeah, probably. But email me first and ask, it's only polite.

Yes, of course. I'd love to know about it though, so drop me an email if you have time.

I emailed you a few weeks ago and you haven't replied. Are you ignoring me?
