It's Society's Crime, Not Ours.
I dunno about you, but lately Stuntmutt's One One Se7en comics have been scaring me. (Louis Wu 20:13:08 UTC) (permalink)
PoA Floorplan - in Excel
This was submitted a LOONNG time ago - but for some reason, I never got around to posting it. Last June, OdieTurbo sent along an Excel file which shows off the floorplan of the Pillar of Autumn, created in conjunction with some fan fiction. I don't think I'd have ever considered Excel as a creation tool for something like this... but it's a great job! The Excel file is quite small (67K), but if you don't have Excel, and would like to see what was done here, I've taken a screenshot of the first floor sheet (shrunk a bit to fit on most screens).

The cake is not a lie
Jenny Wright created this cake for her husband's 26th birthday - it was her first try, but she hopes they'll get better as time goes on. Tasty! (Louis Wu 18:02:16 UTC) (permalink)
Bionicle Elite
In early November, Jadis Faust sent along a bionicle Elite, based on Tina Leyk's artwork. The picture we got compares source and product directly. (Louis Wu 17:59:24 UTC) (permalink)
Random Stuff
We've had a bunch of stuff submitted to our uploads folder in the past few months that has languished, waiting for some free time to process it all; there's no way I can get to all of it right now, but there are a few pieces I can post easily, so I'll put those up. First up... a legendary bong from Shawn Morse. In no way are we commenting on the wisdom or ethics of this item - but you have to give credit to the creativity. This was submitted about a month after Halo 3 was released. (They'd made it the day they got the helmet.) (Louis Wu 17:57:19 UTC) (permalink)
Running
TTL Demag0gue has posted a new Reclaimer comic today - Chapter Three, Part Four shows the Reclaimer in a spot of trouble. Eep! (Louis Wu 16:48:56 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3-inspired Xbox 360 Laptop - I want one.
Black Six was the first to point out a new Xbox 360 Elite Laptop from Ben Heck - he found it at Engadget. It's Halo-newsworthy because the case design was inspired by Halo 3, and the demo movie uses Halo 3 to show off the screen. Amazing stuff! (Louis Wu 16:42:16 UTC) (permalink)
The Happy Sunshine Cannon
2phast let us know that there's a new Larry the Marine comic up - I'm pretty sure there are things that should never be given to Larry. The Happy Sunshine Cannon is one of those things. (Louis Wu 16:38:44 UTC) (permalink)
Blank
Underdawg253 let us know that Etzun Films has released 'Blank', a new machinima with a somewhat disjointed timeline (a la 'Memento'). I have a little trouble with the motivations, but the cinematography is pretty good. Go watch it! (Louis Wu 16:37:09 UTC) (permalink)
