We write a lot about design here at Bit Rebels, but I feel like sometimes we neglect one huge area of design, and that is of course tattoos. Tattoos are such a widely spreadconcept that to not include them in the world’s entire body of artwork would be a sin really. I mean, there are some nasty looking tattoos out there that could possibly be called insane. But there is also a domination of tattoo artthat really deserves the attention of any good or bad designer. We should remember that it’s ultimately impressive to know that tattoo artists don’t work on a regular canvas. There is also a limited supply of erase and undo approaches when you work with skin as your canvas, which makes them even more impressive. Getting a tattoo today is quite an ordinary thing, at least here in Sweden. The majority of tattoos though are small and personal. They are created to honor a memory, to state a new beginning or just to enhance the mindset each and every day. When it comes to mega tattoos though, we enter a whole other class of artwork. There are some magnificent examples of amazing and quite honestly, brilliant tattoo artwork that truly kidnaps your attention whether you want it to or not. Tattoo artist Victor Portugal is somewhat of a master when it comes to mega tattoos, and you will quickly see why. The detail, the shadowing, and the motifs are carefully placed to match the figure of the body of the person who gets it. If a body could ever serve as a real canvas, these people should really be an art installment all their own. There are of course a boatload of other tattoo artists out there that have similar talents as Victor. I think Victor’s art stands out because of the positioning and brilliantly carried out black coloring. I strongly suggest you to have a peek at Victor’s website since it is completely jam packed with mind blowing tattoos. There are hundreds of them, and they are all masterfully created. This is just a little gallery of samples. Source Bitrebels.

Creative Library Ads: A Twist On Facebook, Twitter & YouTube
Maybe I sound like a nerd, but libraries used to be such a fun place to hang out back in the mid ’90s. I remember the library at my University was an architectural masterpiece with floor to ceiling glass windows and spiral staircases to die for. Those days are long gone though. I can’t even remember the last time I was in a library. I understand why we’ve all converted to Internet addicts instead though. Although books are wonderful in their own way, they just can’t compete with the Internet. I know some people like to read books just for the sake of holding and reading a book, and I get that. I do that sometimes, like on an airplane and on vacation. But overall, the Internet is where it’s at, and I really don’t see us looking back to libraries as an option. As a matter of fact, some artists now view books as their materials for fabulous art pieces instead of something to sit down and read. In an effort to attract more people to their library, the Milwaukee Public Library launched this interesting ad campaign. Its purpose is to nudge us off our social media sites and get us back into the library. These are brilliantlycreative, but I’m afraid they have the opposite effect on me. They make me want to log into Facebook. They are still a lot of fun though! Source Bitrebels.

Budweiser USB Drive with Actual Beer
Flash drives just keep getting weirder and weirder–and maybe more creative? I mean, you’ve got the 8 GB Cork USB Drive that looks like a cork, the Jewel Gun USB Flash Drive, and the McDonald’s French Fries Design USB Flash Drive. Some of these USB drives were really made with a lot of thought into the design, because now they look so realistic and true to life. But the Budweiser USB Drive with Actual Beer goes a step further than any one of these, because each has been filled generously with actual beer. Not real beer, as in the one you can chug down at your local beer, but “beer” made from a liquid with a similar color with actual floating beer foam. Now how’s that for realistic? Budweiser USB Drive with Actual Beer The suds will never evaporate in this liquid filled promotional USB drive made to look like beer complete with tiny floating beer foam. Just plug it into any USB port and you’re ready to upload, download, transfer and store all your files. No power supply or cables needed. You can run applications, view videos, or play MP3 files directly. The Budweiser USB Drive with Actual Beer is available for purchase in bulk (minimum of 25) for $17.65 per USB drive.
