It's About A Girl: Trailer The { } And America's Forgotten Pin-Up Girl Word of the day: Zaftig /zäftig/ adjective: (of a woman) Having a full, rounded figure; plump. Meet Hilda, the creation of illustrator Duane Bryers and pin-up art’s best kept secret. Voluptuous in all the right places, a little clumsy but not at all shy about her figure, Hilda was one of the only atypical plus-sized pin-up queens to grace the pages of American calendars from the 1950s up until the early 1980s, and achieved moderate notoriety in the 1960s. “She’s a creation out of my head. Despite being one of history’s longest running calendar queens alongside the likes of Marilyn Monroe, even the most dedicated vintage enthusiasts probably won’t have come across Hilda before. “[Duane Bryers] had the chops to have been one of the greatest pin-up artists in America, but possibly his lust for ample-sized women prevented that,” admits the online gallery curator and Hilda collector, Les Toil. Of the moment he first discovered the lost Hilda watercolour illustrations, Les recalls:

The Daily Dot could not reach Young Wild or anyone at RaresNoSquares for comment.
Popaganda - The Live Quiz Release 30 Compelling Examples of Visual Storytelling on the Web Storytelling is a powerful approach that can, when done right, compel users to convert more effectively than what any amount of optimization, crazy visual callouts, or awesome interactive elements can do otherwise. Much like how we expect to see a moral at the end of a book, we expect to find a purpose at the end of a site with a storytelling experience. When the path to the “moral of the story” (or conversion point, to be more specific) is laid out clearly in front of our users’ eyes, the rest of the work lies simply in convincing them that the purpose is really worth grabbing on to… which is great since with storytelling, a user is normally in the mindset of learning more about what the story has to offer. So take a look at the examples below and experience how their visual storytelling compels you to continue scrolling down their pages! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 2011 Annual Report ( 22. 23. 24.
10 Freaking Creepy Japanese Urban Legends Japan, believe it or not, is a very, very dark and scary place… A lot of Japanese urban legends basically say this: Don’t ever freakin’ travel alone. They also have a fascination with the bathroom. Is it because we let loose in it? 1. Kuchisake-onna (Slit-mouthed woman) is a woman that walks around alone at night wearing a surgical mask. WRONG. This is from Wikipedia: The woman will stop the child and ask, “Am I pretty?” Honestly though, who lets their kid walk around at night? 2. According to some old story, a young schoolgirl was cut in half by an oncoming train after she had fallen in the tracks. There’s a version of this story that I heard a long time ago: There was this boy who was walking home alone, it was getting dark, and he was in an unfamiliar part of the town, so he started to pick up his pace. 3. If you’ve never been to a Japanese school bathroom or a Korean school bathroom, feel lucky. Aka Manto is a ghost that haunts the last stall in the bathroom. 4. 5. 6. Weird. 7. 8. 9.
