1066 and all that

In addition to being the documentation (from the winner's p.o.v.) of the Battle of Hastings, not to mention being the world's first comic strip, the Bayeux Tapestry is the inspiration behind the Historic Tale Construction Kit (note: Flash 6 required). Build your own medieval themed cartoons & email them to friends.

I played with this yesterday, and submitted my rendition of HUMPTY DUMPTY in 5 panels to the gallery, only to find it gone a couple hours later.
