In my recent search for vintage plant images, I came across this wonderful resource. Enormous collection of all kind of plants, animals, human parts and other abnormalities one might look for throughout the week.

If you have a brother or sister (especially from the same parents) probably you have heard the phrase “you wouldn’t even be able to deny you’re siblings!” I for one never agreed with these accusations concerning me and my brother, but perhaps I should reevaluate my standpoint after seeing Ulric Collett’s pictures…

Have you ever felt during a presentation that it is missing that touch of cool that would bring it out of that deep dense forrest of boring slider action?
Perhaps you have heard of a little website called Prezi.com (a Hungarian start-up from 2009), where you can animate your presentation in all directions and zoom in and out as you please. Quite a useful tool to pump some fun into an otherwise boring content.

As she says in her website, lake logos have a tendency to be fairly ugly. That means 10.000 ugly logos only in Minnesota. A lot.
So, she decided to release all this ugliness from Minnesota and brand all the lakes. She will be publishing one logo a day over 27 years to hit ‘em all.
Oh Kerning!
The world would be magical if letters could guess, by themselves, how distant (or how close) from their “mates” they should be. Of course the world is what it is, letters don’t have brains and designers have to control these relationships.
At least now we can have some fun while practicing it!
Here’s a kerning game:
