Break

Sluggo has been behaving so nicely since I cleaned his fan that I have decided to take advantage of the situation and go poking about other parts of the web. There are things I would like to download from Webshots before they vanish. There used to be a much larger collection of paintings there, but almost everything modern is gone. I suspect the copyright police. Museums seem to be guarding their collections much more carefully. I can understand why they don't want everything available from free sites. They could raise a lot of funds by selling digital copies of works in their collections. Still, I'm going to go out and nab what I can while it still exists. So I probably won't have as much time to post things here for a few days. I need to recharge, anyway. Reality tends to look pretty much the same from day to day around here, and I get bored writing about the same things over and over. Let's see if I can find something new.

What's this Webshots thing?? :)

Webshots is a free service where you can upload photographs. They are best known for their screensaver and wallpaper program. Lots of nice stuff, but not as much as there used to be. Millions of photos, but most of them dull. Use their search feature in the "community" section to find the remaining albums of paintings. User "rocsdad" has one of the best collections.
