We love details. So, as we said before, we love a
good & clean designed error message. Some sites
just understand that.

Ok, this month it’s all about the game with the 22
players. You can’t miss it. That’s why you can enjoy 
flipping through this lovely variety of player portraits
as illustrated by various artists.

The slamming comeback of Instant Photo Fun

I’m a fan of Michiel van de Pol’s cartoons where half the time you see him drawing the cartoon. I just discovered that you can read them all online (in Dutch that is). The archive dates back to May 2006. And the man is very productive: daily updates!

Adobe Illustrator is mainly used for graphic design, technical drawings or infographics. But Yukio Miyamoto shows some different and impressive skills with this piece from 2005. It’s a Nagra Recorder, created with Illustrators gradient mesh. He should upload the file, so someone can animate it. (from Brocatus‘ blog)

The creation of an infographic with a compilation video of screenshots which were taken every 5 seconds. Made by Chad Pugh. I would love to see a video like that of this 960 hours work by King Kevin Hulsey. Or this one.
Or this completly illustrated image of Yukio Miyamoto.

Google Maps is getting very detailed. Down to the violence on S Oakley Ave, Chicago. I hope that’s a water pistol. How did this happen? And if it’s a prank, how can we make more?

Cool pictures of Star Wars characters taken out of their intergalactic environment and placed in the concrete jungle. By Cedric Delsaux, you can find the complete series on his site.

A preview of the new WALL-E picture book and an
interview with the creator: illustrator Ben Butcher.
As of today it’s available in a store near you.

Classic posters of the Los Angeles Press
Photographers Annual. Good work & old work.

A Polish online magazine with inspirational artwork by people on a photoshop frenzy. Magazine made with Issuu.

Chuck your camera high on a longish exposure and reap the rewards.. There’s some pretty special pics on the flickr group.

Ok. As a fellow internet junk you got to love an error message like this one.

Very funny and very disgusting. Check the real looks of your easy-5-seconds-home-tv-microwave-diner.

Pixeloo may have a stupid name, but he did have the great idea to use his Photoshop skills to see what Homer Simpson and Super Mario would look like if they weren’t cartoons. This is some bizar looking stuff. On his blog you can read about it some more.

Look at the sky, pick a random object, hold it in front of the clouds and take a picture. This series of photographs makes you use your imagination in order to create cool illusion effects with the different shapes of clouds

Ever wonder how you look like in your unguarded moments? Hire your own paparazzo!

A funny blog with examples of bad Photoshop skills and stupid mistakes. This one is my favorite.

Make a painting as if it were a photo-negative and invert it after making a picture, then you see the final result. A cool concept of The Mac.

Matt Stuart is a street photographer based in London. He shoots ordinary people in weird settings. Check out more street photography over at in-Public.

Make music not war! By Aaron Beck.

Chief Google Doodler Dennis Hwang creates those alternative logos. Check out this time lapse video
and for those of you out there with time: there’s a
contest you can join.

This is some weird shit! But for some reason i like it in a David Lynch kind of way. Maybe it should have been a video, maybe not. What do you think it means?

Nicholas Feltron is a graphic designer based in NYC who makes annual reports about his life. Being a sucker for infographics and seemingly useless statistics I just love this report.

He is a talented designer from Italy. His studio, Mutado,
is located in Milan and London. I love his ironic and colourful illustrations.

The new hype on the Wii: create your own pornstar.

The East London Decapitator mutilates mainstream poster ads. He’s getting a lot of hype on the internet at the moment. Great fun!

“JPG Magazine is about imagemaking without attitude. Join us to share your best photos. Help make the magazine by voting. You might even make a few bucks!” That’s cool. Check it out.
