Ok, so I know that what I am about to talk about isn't really a website, but it was just too amazing to pass up talking about it. The picture that you see above is what is small part of Howard Hallis' master work called The Picture of Everything. It is pretty much just how it sounds, he is attempting to draw a picture of everything. Apparently this all happened when he was trying to draw a picture of spiderman, then he realized that he should probably draw all of the super friends, and then he expanded that to all superheroes and cartoons which just blew up further into this massive piece of artwork. When I first heard about this I couldn't believe it was real, but then I checked it out for myself and it just blew my mind. The design considerations alone in pulling off something like this is completely amazing. I doubt he will ever be done drawing this picture, as he shouldn't be, because there will always be new things he will need to put in the picture. This is one picture with endless possibilities and endless relevance, you don't see too many designs like that nowadays.
