Amanita Design's Latest on New Game Thursday

Amanita Design, the delightfully disturbed mind behind the incredibly cool Samorost, Samorost 2 and Machinarium, has come out with new content.  I can't really call this a game, it's more of an interactive experience.



I'd suggest letting your substance of choice take effect before you visit this website and check it out for yourself.

Pop Culture Graffiti

It would make my day to see something similar to these while walking around my city.

Found him!

I like the use of the existing metal border around the

All the credit goes to Eugene for collecting 15 of these types of images and posting them here.

Create Your Own Background for Open Office Writer

Custom backgrounds for your Word documents are really cool imo.  If you do a lot of typing on your computer, you will benefit from breaking up the mundane white background on your documents.  

  • Under Open Office Writer, you can put an image in the background of your text, zone:
  • Open your Open Office Writer document, right-click the page you want to put a background, select Page
  • Go to the Background tab, then type, select image.
  • Click on Browse to fetch the image on your hard drive or external media.
  • Select your image and click open
  • Select the type of filling the page with the image, then click on ok.
  • You now have your background image.
