Some of our top twenty slogans weren't written by professionals. In the 1950s, a restaurant manager came up with the slogan "It's Finger-Lickin' Good" for KFC. Harland Sanders was the founder of KFC. He ran a food service station in Corbin in Kentucky during the 1930s. Ruby Laffoon, the governor of Kentucky in 1935, recognized his culinary contribution by making him a Kentucky Colonel.

Sanders expanded his business to the opposite side of the street to accommodate the increasing number of people who came to eat. Sanders had already perfected his secret...

Amazon Prime's latest ad is directed by actress turned filmmaker Olivia Wilde and follows a woman who debates what to do about an unwanted moustache. She initially wants to get rid of it but changes her mind after she remembers all the famous people who sport facial hair. She is particularly inspired by Freddie Mercury, and she orders a jacket in yellow that was inspired by his stage look. The jacket, and the Queen song that scores the ad, seem to give her the confidence to wear her moustache with pride to school. Wilde's feature film debut was in 2019, with the charming...

AI has gradually permeated our lives for years now, yet only recently reached mainstream consciousness. OpenAI has emerged as a key player in AI's mass adoption thus far; their image and text generator tools Dall-E and ChatGPT give a glimpse of what life may look like with artificial intelligence in our future lives.

[editorial-rating id="185"] Hi, my name is creativereview, and I’ve been a professional photographer and graphic designer for over fifteen years, but I’ve been interested in digital images for much longer. I began using Photoshop 5.5 in the early 2000s in a school computer lab, and shortly after, I got my first digital camera with a whopping 3-megapixel sensor. I’ve worked with a wide variety of image editing programs (on both Windows and macOS) over the course of my career, and I’m always on the lookout for new programs and methods to improve my professional editing workflow and my personal practice. After all the...
