For mmott.com I have been experimenting with different kinds of repeating patterns for backgrounds. Inspired by the work of Asao Tokolo featured on the NY Times site I started drawing some patterns for the background of the mmott.com site. Below are some of the designs I came up with.
By clicking on them you can see how they work out in the background of gingerus.com They are freely available for anyone to download and use personally or commercially as long as you don’t resell them (see license below).
The one used at mmott.com:

A version with straight lines:

A circles version:
