Snow White is back and is looking for revenge! Created by vinylville, this laptop decal blows me away. I'm totally impressed how they naturally incorporated the Apple logo in the design scheme!
Looks like Snow White is a good girl gone bad and is out for blood! It's a great new look for her, isn't it?…
About a month ago, I posted about stunning ice sculptures at the Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival in China. Not to be outdone, Japan has started two of their own magnificent ice festivals!!
Gotta love the imagination and dedication of the crew from Improv Everywhere. It's pretty amazing how they pull it off with such a big group. My favorite is still the frozen people at Grand Central Station in New York. If they did this is your city, would you… Continue
