The Infinity Project Josh Simpson makes glass planets. Tickle his fancy and you too may have the opportunity to hide one for posterity.
Aw, geez. This is just bloody fucking cool. The art-for-art's-sake part of me just wants to mist up over things like this. Bravo; great link.

I always keep marbles when I find them, just in case they're magic. Because you never, ever know.
This is wicked cool, plinth.

There are absolute horrors being committed right now and you guys want to play marbles? Terrible!

Something odd about rotten.com - children can gain instant access to grisly autopsy and crime scene photos, but require an adult check ID to see the "famous nudes".
Sigh . . . wish you didn't post that johnny, especially on what is an undeniably cool thread.
I wonder what Simpson is looking for? I'm going to be thinking of cool places to hide infinity worlds for a while now!

I found the link, but this brings up a minor ethical question: Would it ruin everyone else's fun if I posted it?

Not mine, I was planning on going to the source code, but I am still not sure what I would be looking for.

By the way, I rarely resort to name-calling...(ok, not THAT rarely). But I'm about to break that rule. Johnny, that was a dipshit move. Seriously. Why ya gotta bum everybody's buzz, man?

Sorry. I'm just not doing too well, I guess.

hey you're right kids, nasty link, but it did contain the words "absolute horrors", imply that it wasn't pleasant, and did make his point...if I didn't want to see something horrible, I wouldn't've clicked on it...

Sure, DiplomaticImmunity, but the overall tone of his post appeared to be lighthearted, much like the tone of the thread in general. I think his point (if he had one) could have been made just as well using text or something. Some of us don't want to look at dead babies while we eat our cheerios.
That said, I also think I was too harsh with johnnydark. When I first clicked on his link, I took it to be a deliberate ambush, someone playing a stupid prank. I now see that he may, however clumsily, have been sincerely trying to make a point. If so, my bad.
