We’re not going to get healthcare reform until we get healthcare clip-art reform. I’m sorry, but can we talk about this graphic?
It’s from a student health insurance self-service page, where it takes up more space than the content. But there’s so much going on here: the hideous low-contrast palette, the obviously Photoshop-cloned background, the lack of any attempt at composition or design. The way the sign says “My School” instead of “Your School” which, admittedly, would make only slightly more sense.
But my favorite part? That East and West are at right angles.
