edited September 2006 in Folding@Home
A little something I put together. What do you think? I was going for "Hauling Cogs" or "Dumping a load of Cogs" A real cog mover!!

Maybe someone good at Photoshop can make it cooler! :bigggrin:

    Haha, when I saw this post I thought it was about a machine that keeps crashing and losing the work units before they had finished. Nevermind :p

    Well, I found the dump truck on google images and cut it out of it's background using photoshop, then I pretty much hand drew the cog in the back of the dump truck using photoshop. All I had to go on was this:

    If you did the cog in pen then send it over so I can use the shape in C4D. :D

    Heh, now I can't stop thinking about how cool it would be to have an anodized blue aluminum cog on my desk :D

    That would be pretty cool! Everyone that gets their first million points should get an annodized blue aluminum cog sent to them to proudly display in their home or office! :smiles:

    Now THAT is an awesome idea!! It should have a little plaque attached to it with some wording relating to folding. It would be a great conversation starter.

    (pussy cats are acceptable, but not with a cog in their butt.) :D

    I think that is a great honor! Glad you liked it enough to make an avy. As the internet lives on and this image survives me through the ages, there will be a time when the original artist is lost and this image become uber valuable. With my death, riches will be made! You have my permission to sell it to the highest bidder. :thumbsup:

    Sweet, I'm a theoretical future millionaire!

    on a side note, I didn't see that sig in the sig-maker-dohickey. Where'd you get it?

    He may have done something different, but our sig generator allows you to use a custom picture if you choose. :)

    Check the location of the sig. It's a custom one from http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com
