Pictoplasma.

Pictoplasma. A collection of over 4750 contemporary character designs from a whole wide load of artists, designers and companies world wide. It's making my day. There's a book too.

not the most intuitive navigation on that site. On the pop-up window, click on the mustard colored dot up on the top to browse the archives.

The PictoOrphanage is killing me with its cuteness...

Thanks, crunchland... I was just coming to complain that I couldn't get any of the "links" to work. (You'd think a gallery of design work would know better than to use exactly the same typeface for links as for body text.)

I've been busy. Having babies and the like. (self link, don't get all up in my ass about it.)

It's wonderful eye-candy and and amazing effort by whoever administers the site. I would really, really love to see something along these lines in a "copy-left" version, though. I suppose the cost of bandwidth for such a venture would just be too prohibitive.
