Kimono motifs
A photo guide to spotting designs on kimono. Lots of motifs are very stylised and difficult to identify, so this guide aims to give you some info on the most common ones.

Choose Your Own Adventure
Remember the sci-fi/fantasy paperbacks where you could write your own story by picking from the different choices? I used to love them, so I've added some short versions of my own. I hope they capture the bizarreness and weird twists of the originals... To choose your path through the different options, use the 'I'd do this' links under each option.

Seasonal site design
The site design now changes with the seasons, showing a plant or flower that's in season this week. To see all the designs, go to the other styles page.

About this site
This site started off as a place to store my bookmarks/favourites and to try out new web designs, but things have expanded since then after various projects! You can now find out about kimono, see my projects, get inspired for your lunch, plan for an emergency, find interesting new sites or try your hand at telling your fortune with the Discworld Tarot.
