Old images restored - A few years back one of the third party images servers that supported B3ta went off line and we lost a lot of material. The good news is that we've found a chunk of it in the internet archive. Wil Haddon writes, "Looks like 11000 images have been copied over from b3tards though there were quite a lot of duplicates coming in for a while before I fixed that up. Still loads more missing but it's better than it was." So go and check out some old challenges like this Twitter one - loads of images are there. Not all. But lots.

Ohh we've got a new sponsored newsletter link, who asks us to say: "Our friend Keith and long-time subscriber has made a new book that doesn’t even mention AI. He has two books , check them out: the last book to help organise your days and a new book to help organise your life."

Expand Art
AI has been trying to take over our cultural history by lying about what's outside the frame of classic paintings. Help us to grab the AI by the Jackson Pollocks and expand classic works of art to show how it should be done.
