One of my goals for the new year is to update more. More comics, more news, and more blog posts, too. So, to start things off, here’s something neato I found. Remember I used to post stuff like that? I did. It happened. Here’s a bunch if you want to look through. Anyway, here’s one more.

Tiny PMS Match is a mostly-photo blog (on Tumblr) where graphic designer Inka Mathew takes tiny things like berries, individual M&Ms, what my mom would refer to as “tchotkes”, and whatever other things she finds and then perfectly matches them with a Pantone Matching System (yes, THAT PMS) color. The result is fun and pretty adorable.

This is like a real-life cheese that I would have written.

Systemic Rebecca sent me news of undies for the designer in us all. Underpants by Pantone color matching system. But what happens when you wash them a ton and the color fades, do they go from 382C to 382U?

This also may be a great time to encourage designers to hook up with each other, just so someone around you appreciates the reference. There’s a “color bridge” joke in there somewhere.
