Tomas Ekström’s funny prints, Stupid Singing Friends: “Always singing along, not quite knowing the words — which doesn’t matter all that much, since you’re not so much singing the lyrics as your singing anything and everything! Singing the drums, singing the trumpets and what have you — along with a few words thrown in here and there for good measure.”

Today is Creative Amnesty Day when you can show those projects that went all kinds of wrong. See who admits anything on Twitter using #creativeamnesty. This logo I did back in 2000-ish is not terrible but it does kind of suck, for some kind of web company, it’s an “e” and a “d”.
