I’ve always loved the aesthetic effect of the grid-marks on the photographs that were taken by the Apollo mission Hasselblads.

In the wake of the Creative Review blog posting the British Design Classics set of stamps, designed by HGV for the Royal Mail next year, the ffffound hive mind is in full gear. (Not that I’m immune to the tendency, but I tend to limit myself to just one image from the set. After all, I can always go back to the original post.)
Anyway, how could I not love those stamps? Mind you, I do wish they’d used one of Beck’s diagrams, or at least a recent TfL map that doesn’t look far too cluttered when turned into a stamp. Still, that’s full-blown rant material. Best step away from the post editor.

Applying Design
After fiddling about with it in private for a while, I’ve put a custom theme on notes.husk.org which matches my main site. More or less.
Annoyingly, Tumblr doesn’t provide title fields for all its post types, so I’ve used the post ID (which crops up in the URL) instead. Hopefully this works. Sort of. It also seems to provide only minute-level resolution on its timestamps. Eh.
The design still needs some tweaking for spacing (on photos especially; ideally I’d also align them to 16 pixel boundaries) but then, if there is anyone reading this, they’re probably doing it via RSS or the dashboard. So nobody will mind.
Now you may go about your bufiness.
