CSS art

Looks like I’m a minor hit.  There was a post on MetaFilter about CSS art (basically, using a web browser to generate images in ways it was not designed to.)  Turns out I had already done this a couple years ago.  I quickly cleaned up my source code to ready it for release, and posted some sample images.  You can view the sample page (takes a while to load, probably only works in IE), the original image, the PERL script, and the MetaFilter discussion.

The guy who said “that’s beautiful” is quite kind.
