News: View OSM maps in a new light with watercolour skin

pocketgpsworld.com
I'm a huge fan of OpenStreetMap, it's crowd sourced map data has improved in leaps and bounds in recent years but the default map skin can be a little boring.

Step in Stamen Design with a selection of skins for OSM that include the beautiful 'Watercolour' effect seen above. Whilst it's of little practical use for navigational purposes, it turns map data into works of art and I'd be delighted to have one hanging on my wall.

They also have a more practical 'Toner' skin which lends itself to printing or other scenarios where a high contrast is useful.
