The Impending War Between Serif and Sans Serif TypefacesThings are getting ripe on the battlefield. Already the brand and style guides have been sent out and it’s shaping up to be a battle not just of morals and American values but also of line and shape and everything solid that Westerners fight for in the …

Johnny Get Your Gun Why do times of war inspire amazing graphics? I do not know. Maybe it’s cause the war machine pays such good money. But if you are a visual learner like me you need things drawn out for you. Esspecially complicated war patterns and such. Here is a diagram of Iraq’s Firepower, …
