Serenity's going to space!!

Tuesday, March 24, 2009

Okay, so there was a contest by NASA to name Node 3 of the ISS. I was looking at it today, not knowing when the voting ended and a was so happy at what I saw. The name Serenity won by 70%! The next highest (Legacy) was only 13%! More details here (http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/name_ISS/).

This remains to be seen. Unfortunately, Colbert won by 40,000 votes by write in.

*Only* write-in votes?!? Smells like a stunt to me. I hope they look at those votes, to tell if they're just stuffing.

So do the on-line votes not count? It would be interesting to know how many actual votes 70% turned out to be but I suppose we will never know. Have to say I am mighty disappointed, Ali D

hey Nasa said they would take high votes into consideration but that they wanted a name that blended with the others ( tranquility etc...) what blends better than Serenity

Such good work (800by600)
The 800 by 600 try at my Such Good Work wallpaper I posted just the other day. I don't like it as much, but would also like to hear everyone else's thoughts one it.

Such good work
Random wallpaper idea that hit me at about 2 in the morning. Most of it revolves around the line from the R. Tam session, "We're doing such good work." This one is for 1366x768. I'm still working on a 800x600. Screenshots from http://www.leavemethewhite.com/caps/thumbnails.php?album=73 and a screenshot I did and a Youtube video of the R. Tam sessions. Sadly I don't remember who's video I used, so apologizes to that person. People who give comments go to the special heaven.

River Blueprints try 3
This is the last one I'm going to post for a little while. If you have more feedback please give it. I'm going to give myself a break from this project to work on something else. Thank you to everyone who has given feedback.

River blueprints try 2
This is a modified version of River blueprints made after talking to my family. Better or worse than the first one? Comments wanted.

River Blueprints
This started as an image of river with her line but I didn't know what to do with the background. After looking at my firefly collection for ideas I saw my blueprint book. I don't know what it is but I think this is missing something. If anyone has any ideas please comment. As always screencaps from stillflying.net. Comments and criticism welcome.

I wouldn't say I'm entirely ok...
After 3 months of inactivity I have come back. This is an image that got started and then sat in my computer for a while. Thought of it after watch Heart of Gold for the thousandth time. Comments and criticism welcome and wanted.

Jayne's hat
Sorry to be posting so many. Last one. This is another 1280 by 800. I don't currently have a 800 by 600, but will get one. One day. Screen caps by still-flying.net.

River hopes to dance wallpaper (600x800)
Same as the last one, only because of the proportional difference, I couldn't have it solid. Please tell me if you like the faded (this one) or the solid (last one) better. And tell me if you like the text tilted or straight. I can post one of these with straight text if requested.
