FFFFOUND!
You can't get past FFFFOUND!'s masthead without knowing that exclamation points are welcome here. On the "about" page, we encountered not one but three statements punctuated with great enthusiasm: "Find, bookmark and share your favorite images!!" "An inspirational image-bookmarking experience!!" And our favorite: "Learn learn learn! And add!"
The exuberance begins to seem warranted once you return to the main gallery. Here, image-lovers have gathered a wildly diverse assembly of photos, typography, illustration, and graphic design. A Surrealist clip-art collage leads to a vintage etching of a puffer fish, which flows into a woodprint-inspired text design and a classic black and white photo of boxers. In the collections built up by some of the site's heaviest users—some with nearly 2,000 entries to their account—more eclecticism pours forth. We felt like we had wandered into the private holdings of a collector who is passionate and just slightly, and adorably, mad. And we loved it. FFFFOUND! You inspire us!!!
