Thanks Tom. I started running again this year after a 6/7year absence. Gave myself 3 goals:

✅ 5k sub20 (now: 18:50)
✅ 10k sub40 (now: 38:46)
❓Half Marathon sub90

My half marathon is in 4 weeks.

Why it works: People feel the need to give feedback, even if the design is solid. By directing their attention to the hairy arm, you avoid unnecessary changes to the elements that matter most. Smart design + psychology = win! 💡 #GraphicDesignTips 3/3

The idea: Add a small, obvious flaw to your design—a “hairy arm.” Clients will focus on this deliberate issue (like a clashing font or weird spacing), giving them something to “fix.” This satisfies their urge to contribute while leaving your core design untouched. 🎨 2/3
