They did that at my other brother's rugby club.
If it was your birthday they'd give you a pint of vodka and you'd have to drink it.
Now that's manly.
Rugby and vodka.
Better if it was Austrailian football though. lol

my housemates rugby club would buy the birthday boy a pint of nasty. each member of the team would buy a random shot and when the pint glass was full the whole horrible mix had to be downed in one by the unlucky recipient.

yes.
2 source images, both 10mp (monster-sized).
what do you want in focus? trees or bricks?
(or a rather tasty transparency of one over the other I was playing with)
edit: don't try an enlargment of the animation as your desktop. it really really hurts after about half a minute, plus it thrashes your processor to bits ;)
how big's your desktop?
