News you can use.
- It's been a good week for the more fabulous sector of sexuality: First, California's Supreme Court ruled that the state's ban on gay marriage is unconstitutional, and the federal appeals court said that while the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy is still in effect, the military must prove that the servicemember's gayness was had a negative effect on the military and cannot automatically discharge them for being gay.

- Inspire me, now!

- What would Stewie Griffin from Family Guy look like if he were real? Created by the same guy who did Mario, Homer Simpson, and Jessica Rabbit. Don't forget to click the picture to see the large versions.

- Industrial Decay, a blog featuring stunning photos of dead factories, rotting warehouses, random machinery, and all kinds of neat stuff. Beware, though, it's extremely image heavy.

- Deceiving Billboard Ads.

- A small gecko was found in a chicken egg. Anyone hungry?

- The Giger counter.

- A concept for a disaster relief robot, whose goal is to design "a futuristic robot that would aid humans in dangerous tasks".

- Lately I've come across some sites that I saw long, long ago, and recently found again, surprised to see that they were still around:

       1. The first of those is Slow Wave where readers mail in their dreams, and then they are made into fascinatingly surreal comics.

       2. Zombo.com has been around for at least twelve years, yet is still keeping the mystery alive to this day.

       3. The guy who made When I Am King still makes new comics, for the low low price of $3 a year. Totally worth it. Note: his site does contain abstract cartoon nudity, just so you know.


Videos and a comic:

We had some pixeloo-style 'Reality Cartoons' at Worth1000 recently too. One of our guys did a Stewie Griffin and apparently he used the pose Pixeloo was goign to use, so Pixeloo had to change the redo the one he was workign on. Oops.

Yeah, he linked to the contest a couple weeks back, and most of them weren't all that great. I rarely go to W1K, but I was expecting a better job based on what I've seen people come up with before.
