Cool look­ing cup­cakes inspired by the brain slugs from Futu­rama. (via)

Just fin­ished up a redesign of a friends site for his buggy, The Pit Viper.

I imple­mented valid XHTML code, and added some meta data so that the site is more search engine friendly. I broke up the text into sep­a­rate head­ings so it would be eas­ier to read.

I used fan­cy­box to punch up the photo gallery at the bot­tom. I also took advan­tage of some CSS3 for some tran­si­tion effects on the links, and rounded cor­ners on the image borders.

I have been try­ing to repli­cate the inte­rior light func­tions of some of the newer cars for some time now. I like how they stay on after the door is closed and then fade away. This is also called the­ater lighting.

This cir­cuit is based around the ever use­full 555 timer, and an N chan­nel MOSFET.
