    Default London icons and landmarks

    Why not pay a visit to the XaraXone and do this month's guest tutorial.
    Designing an Elegant Poster.

    Here are a few that I came up with.
    Don't panic, there are plenty of London icons left for you to have a go with, if that's what you wanted to do!

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    That's splendid, Igor.
    I love it.
    But, please don't be miserable!
    There are many other icons and symbols.
    Some new ones.
    1. The London Eye
    2. The Gurkin Building
    3. The Shard
    Some Old ones.
    1. The Post Office Tower
    2. The Beefeaters
    3. The London Bobby
    4. An Umbrella (In fact, an Umbrella is a very English thing.)

    And many more!

    So, why not have a go at a few of those!!!

    Larry: I'm looking forward to yours, as well.

    Most excellent, Igor.
    I expect John Steed to step out from behind your poster, any time now!

    Some icons are very synonomous, but others will take some time to catch on and become as easily recognisable as the Double-Decker Bus.

    So, here's the Millennium Dome.
