Naughty or Nice, the aftermath

Gav has documented some of the verdicts that santa has brought onto naughty and nice members of the poke office. Including this very strange portrait of me.

You are so very nice, and so very pretty. You win a free photshop beauty portrait. Go and sit for your portrait with Jason. - Santa

Uncanny picture of me

I feel a little weird every time I see it. Thanks Jason and Will!

Have you been Naughty or Nice?

It has now turned into a tradition that Stuff club makes some sort of christmas project. Last year we made Formula wonderland a snowy scalextric fairy land. This year, we built a giant "Santa lap" that you sit in and you get told whether you've been Naughty or Nice. The whole thing gets recorded and posted naughtyornice.tumblr.com.

Other makers involved were Gavin and Jason Fox, Badger, Martin Rose and Tracy Tsang.

A few weeks ago @screechin showed me some photos from NASAs Image of the day gallery. There's some stunning photography in that gallery, so I figured they'd looks nice as a desktop background.

Here's a simple python script that pulls down the latest image and puts it on your osx desktop.
