The top 15 out of a 23-quip week.

A = Authors | C = Community

A / No. 50 / Armin / Pretty great, constructive read: “Building Your Portfolio Website: Six Things to Never Do”.

A / No. 43 / Armin / I can vouch that the new, 800-page Pentagram Black Book is as awesome as it sounds.

A / No. 51 / Armin / Commissioned by the city of Miami to paint a Martin Luther King Jr.-inspired mural, artist Serge Toussaint took the artistic liberty of adding Barack Obama next to him — denied, he had to paint over Obama with white primer. [Via Artkrush]

C / No. 19 / Chad K / Forget all those protective skins you can get for your apple stuff dress it up with some laser guided scratches.
