As Chief Editor of Yanko, I'm glad so many of you like our aggregated monthly lists consisting of the most popular posts. It's really a way to look back before moving forward. As for monetary compensation, I'm at no obligation to discuss how much money we make, if any at all, but I can assure you team Yanko spends hours on end searching out the best and brightest ideas around the world. We all do this because we love to. We all have design backgrounds and some of us work in ID. The motive behind this site is simple, ideas to see, ideas to share. To all you designers out there, keep up the great work. To the readers, keep reading. And have a Happy March! Hi readers.

Matze I respect what you are saying but did yanko ever charge you or any designers here to showcase one of their designs? I can personally testify here that they never asked for a penny for their services. And I mean services, even now yanko forwards me e-mails that are from journalist, buyers or subject matters that may help me. How many blogs even reply to you? Very few I would predict. I can’t even recall yanko asking for donations for that matter. So how is yanko earning money from the site, you mean the sponsor google ads I see where you have the choice to CLICK on it or not? Last time I researched, google ads make you little or no money. I’ll admit I am biased here, I did get one of my designs published on this site and benefited greatly but that’s my point. I’m a fresh off ID graduate and without their publicity, I 100% believe that I would have not landed the contract job I have now. The chain reactions yanko creates is nothing short of wow, I personally seen my design get showcased on many of the major blogs but the source always indicates it was from yanko. So why leave a comment that may discourage the yanko team rather than encourage their efforts. Yanko obviously gives more than they take and helps designers more than themselves. Matze I can understand that you want to see constructive comments on the designs but as mentioned by AlienzExist, “this list is merely a collection of the most clicked on designs of February.” From what I can see, the critical discussions are taking place in its permalink. This is just ONE post out of the 100 (just guessing here) they do on a monthly basis. You also mentioned “Nobody thanks HP to make wonderful printers?!” Readers of yanko don’t need to, what yanko showcases is by far the most inspiring and innovative designs than any brand can come up with. We should all be thanking and encouraging yanko here, especially on a post like this. It’s really a shame why we just can’t for a site that helps so many designers like myself and inspirations it offers to non designers. I can’t speak and represent for all designers that had their design published here but I for one can’t be quiet on this one.
