Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Found this bizarre sheep chair over at the interesting Freshome blog.
Not sure of the chair’s origins, but I’m sure it would be a huge hit in Wales (might as well say it myself before everyone starts chiming in with the Welsh sheep jokes!)
I honestly can’t imagine anyone buying this item of furniture, but there […]

MINI Pedestrian Crossing

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

How do you transform a simple pedestrian crossing into a MINI-branded pedestrian crossing in three brush strokes? Simple!

This is probably the work of MINI fanatics who’ll do anything to promote their favorite vehicle. I wonder how long before the extra paintwork is erased?

Bizarre Google AdSense Ads

Monday, September 24th, 2007

It seems you have to be really careful what words you use on your blog posts at the moment. Not long after I’d finished laughing at a post on the DealDotCom blog where they were featuring a “Meet Gay Chubby Guys” AdSense ad, I was looking back through some of my old posts and noticed […]

Not Find The Face, Find The Dog Instead

Saturday, September 8th, 2007

Looks like my “Find The Face In The Baked Beans” illusion has inspired someone else to create a “spot the object” image.
Posted over at Mighty Optical Illusions is the Hidden CoinDog Illusion - a photo of hundreds of coins and a tiny hidden dog.
The photo was created by Matt Dzugan and his brother.

Remember the original Find The Face Illusion and my own fairly successful Find The Face Sequel ? Well, what you see below is Find The Face - The Threequel!

About a week ago, Thomas Laupstad, the highly talented photographer from Northern Norway, posted a great photo on his blog which he generously made available as […]

Find The Face: The Sequel

Friday, July 20th, 2007

After several blog comments and numerous emails all saying how much they enjoyed the Find The Face In The Coffee Beans post, I thought it would be fun to test my Photoshop skills and come up with my own unique Find The Face illusion.
It’s embarrassing to admit, but I once owned one of the almost-impossible-to-finish […]
