Well played. How about a sneak peak?

  I don't think you quite understand the sarcasm in the article (or perhaps I misread it...?)

    I did not understand either, I feel I am missing some context to this post that the writer should have included.

      I think he was basically saying that good design comes from hard work and a deep understanding of a large number of variables, while the Gap is just getting a million monkeys banging on typewriters and picking the best design.

      Seems like GAP announced an unpaid logo contest.

      I think it was pretty clear that he was being sarcastic, but only up to a point. I am still left wondering if he actually has a logo to show or if he is offering his services in a professional capacity, or not.

        Neither. It’s just rhetorical.

      The context is that a $14B company is trolling for a free logo. I have to wonder if there is going to be some Chambers Brothers-esque drama regarding these initiatives in the future.
