Desktopography '08

Posted by [ Andrew ] @ August 31st, 2008

Totally forgot about this project and stumbled on it again looking to change up my system.

http://www.desktopography.net/

If you've heard of the project before check it out there 2008 Exhibition is up.

If you haven't, from their site:

Designers and developers spend about 90% of their waking life in front of a computer so the most appealing genre for a wallpaper would be one that has beautiful design mixed with the all important aspect of being outdoors.

What we see everyday can affect our mood and state of mind, enhance your desktop with a wallpaper creation from desktopography and feel the essence of nature and the outdoor existence on your computer. Bring tranquility to your desktop, feel the wilderness and give your background a breath of fresh air..

I HIGHLY recommend checking out all of their exhibitions. Some truly amazing wallpapers / pieces of art up there.

Enjoy D:

Drawball

Posted by [ Andrew ] @ April 18th, 2008

Saw this posted over at waffles and thought it was really cool.

http://www.drawball.com/

its basically i giant graffiti board that anyone can draw on. ...

but there's a catch. you only have limited ink, and you regain ink at 20% a day. each new IP address gets 5% to start.

However, once you start, you're set, and you're ink will automatically get saved and incremented.

Another note, some people have drawn artwork, and the mods protect it so no one can draw on that part of the ball. Basically, if you see no vandalism, its probably protected. ...

It's pretty crazy to look threw it and see all the things people have drawn. There's some really good drawings and sketches in there. Also thought it was really cool you can playback the history of it and see all the things that were there and what covered them up.

...and that reminds me I need to make a style for quotes.
