Re: penrose triangle wallpaper
is it just me or is the penrose triangle you have for an avatar nicer than the one you've used in that wallpaper? the one in the wallpaper seems 'squashed', and less balanced than the one in your avatar.
i like the idea and the diagonal lines look pretty nice, as well as the triangle back there. i just like your avatar triangle better than this one (not the color, just the shape)

Re: penrose triangle wallpaper
Excellent Penrose triangle wall!
I've been thinking for a while that a blivet, impossible cube, or other such impossible object could be incorporated into the CrunchBang logo.

Re: penrose triangle wallpaper
@pvsage i was thinking about what you said about an impossible shape logo for #! and I might be able to make a C out of the penrose triangle. Although it would no longer be a triangle...

Re: penrose triangle wallpaper
Can you do anything with any of these?
The first one is the classic blivet; I think the last one is what you mentioned above...

Oh; I was thinking of just the hashbang logo, but if you want to build an entire font set, bon chance!

Re: penrose triangle wallpaper
I couldn't think of a way to do the #! but I would rather do that so I ill keep thinking of #! ideas.
I just thought of the C and wanted to put it down on paper.

Re: penrose triangle wallpaper
I have something sketched out; I'll try to remember to post it tomorrow night once Omp comes back form its well-intentioned but ultimately futile "Stop SOPA" blackout. In a nutshell though, the idea was two pitchfork blivets interlaced.
Remember, people, none of the people in Washington actually care about their constituents. They pretend to care when campaigning, but once they get elected, it's all about the Benjamins.

Re: penrose triangle wallpaper
OK, I'm not sure if I like how these blivets came out, but maybe someone can turn them into something nice. This is just a couple sketches I threw together in Tgif:
