Awesome reader Myrtti sent in this amazing background graphic. It’s the winner of the Fast Graphics Competition at the Assembly Summer 2008 Demoparty. It’s the Butterfly Effect by Korpi, and I adore it so much it’s my new background! Thanks so much for sending it in, Myrtti! You can see it in use on her computer here.

Happy Independence Day to all my fellow Americans, and happy Friday to everyone else!
Kara O’Malley was kind enough to send me this photo of a painting an old boyfriend did for her. I’m so glad she shared it with us; it’s lovely! It also proves that the artist, Joe Heaps Nelson, was robbed of his idea. Kung Fu Panda should be paying royalties to him!
It’s entitled The Legendary Fighting Pandas of the Shaolin Temple, and it’s awesome!
Thanks for sending it in Kara!
Someone pointed me to Zazzle.com for a place with a ton of unique panda items. I wasn’t disappointed, that’s for sure. There are a ton of cute designs, and you can add them to pretty much anything you can imagine. It’s very similar to CafePress, if you’ve seen stores hosted there. Below are just a fraction of the cute items I found on the site.
Panda Apron $21.90
Panda in your pocket! $!6.85
Panda Cuddles! $27.87
Panda Acrobat! $25.65
Canvas Print 15×22 $16.55
This sculpture is available from SkyMall, the magazine in planes with frivolous and over-priced items. While $69.95 is surprisingly cheap for SkyMall, I still think it’s a bit much for a 16 inch tall resin statue.
I found this clay panda while perusing Etsy. It’s my addiction, I can’t help myself. I just love that place.
Anyhow, I love this little panda with a heart. Only $18.00 at Cold Porcelain Designs‘ Etsy shop.
This adorable panda painting is available from OopsyDaisy.com. The artist, Sally Bennet, has a ton of other adorable paintings available on the site, too. Not to mention the pages and pages of cute art. It’s definitely worth a browse and they add new art often.
