Raumpatrouille. At last. A webpage about Raumpatrouille with at least a little bit of English text. And lots of pictures. Have fun. Mhm. The thing on the left of the screen looks a bit like the Quicktime icon? 5:50:06 PM     |

Lorem ipsum. Big archive of greek text, or Blindtext, as it is known in Germany. We advertising agents use it to simulate bodycopy in ads, because copywriters are usually lazy and the layout looks better anyway - nobody bothers to read the copy. They come in different flavours, German, English and even some Flemish copy is to be found there. Part 1, Part 2. Found at Usability Inside. Download the copy directly to your Quark or InDesign folder and win the next pitch! 3:17:40 PM     |

Fantastic. The art of Virgil Finlay. More here. Found at Dublog. Finlay's work was an immediate hit with the readers and the writers. Readers wrote in praising the illustrations. H.P. Lovecraft wrote him fan letters and even composed a poem about his art. Finlay was a fan of the genre as well as one of the most talented artists to enter the field. These combined to provide his work with a power and grace unknown in the pulps. The stippling, fine hatching and pebble board were all used in conjunction to give his images a texture and depth beyond anything ever seen in the field... 12:09:58 PM     |
