Tis the Season to give art
Just a quick note to say I just added 89 more images to my creative commons set on Flickr. There are now 367 images for you to use. Need a new avatar or image to illustrate a blog post or just want something bright and colorful to look at? Have at it, just credit me when you use it! Cheers! »
War on Christmas? Thank FSM, It’s Won.
