8 ways to drive a graphic designer mad
If the graphic designer chooses Helvetica for a font, ask for Arial. If he chooses Arial, ask for Comic Sans. If he chooses Comic Sans, he's already half-insane, so your job's half done. 8 ways to drive a graphic designer mad (...and yes, the kerning is intentionally horrid in the above image to embellish how awful Comic Sans really is.)
Little Know-It-All
"What is a Meta-Tag? What kind of measurement is DIN A1? What kind of clearance and documents do you need before using copyrighted material?" The Little Know-It-All provides the fundamental information designers need to know to thrive in their growing field of practice. it is an indispensable manual of the knowledge currently required of designers as the evolution of media redefines their role and expands the disciplined in which they must be competent. And who wouldn't want to read a book titled "The Little Know-It-All"!
Bam Pop
Bam Pop are as they describe themselves "a young publishing company whose mission is just to make rad art". I am really digging their Popfont.

BBC's new Good Food website is lovely and packed full of tasty content. The use of beautiful imagery and colour is sure making me hungry!
Readymech Series 002
Fwis has released Series 002 of the Readymech flatpack toys for you to print and build. They are designed to fit on an 8.5"x11" page and printed with any printer. You’ll need double-sided tape, thick matte paper, and 10-15 minutes for build time. I think I pretty much made every toy from Series 001. They are kind of addicting.
Oh Man!!! That's so craaaazy!!!
If you are as big fans of Yam Roll and Black and White as I am then that title should make sense. If it doesn't then I suggest you quickly go and watch this short 28 second video and then this 3 minute video.
Ok...you're all set. Now that you have been sucked into the world of John Izen I though everyone should know that you can now have your own Yam Roll doll! Yes, it is $40 but I think it is so worth it (if they send me one I will take pictures of it following me around on my day to day journeys: Yam Roll at work, Yam Roll working out, Yam Roll sleeping etc...).
