SUNDAY DIVERSION -- THE JACKSON POLLACK MACHINE


Hello. Missed a couple of days. Have not been feeling well for the last twenty hours, and have been hiding from the computer, and although there is much to discuss, I still feel a tad tired to be sitting at the keyboard for hours on end. On the other hand, I do feel the Doc40 funhouse should not every be closed and shuttered, and also, thanks to our good friend Yukiko, we have a fab toy with which to waste our time. The Jackson Pollack Machine, is truly amazing, but it’s more frustrating that an Etch A Sketch in that I have not found a way to preserve the creation. (Left click to change color.)
We also have amazing aerial photos of highway intersections, a Simpson’s movie trailer from Dimitris, and a killer video of the singing Tesla Coil.
The secret word is Weak

Saving onscreen work:

If you have a windows machine, give the site a good pollocking, then hit "Print Screen" (top row of keyboard), open Programs from the start menu, got to accessories, open Microsoft paint, hit control v or whatever you use to paste your previous screen into the program.

Trim the composition and save as a bitmap. I don't know how to use paint to save things as a jpg, so your computer will get pretty full if you do a lot of these. (But I doubt if anyone's so obsessed.)

Sorry to hear you're ill.
