Well, we've taken a few days off to enjoy some turkey and presents, and we've come back to the office to keep chugging away... But it's time for another break! New Year's is within spitting distance, and we'll be closed for New Years Day (that, of course, would be Friday, January 1st). As always, we'll resume processing/shipping orders and replying to any correspondence the following Monday. We hope everyone has had a great year and that 2010 will be even better.
On a different note, we want to roll out some new artwork for the PumLantern. Instead of doing all the work ourselves, though, we want some input from you.

But only if they can meet the above design requirements. Feel free to even draw up some rough concepts and send them over - just remember that the simple designs are generally better. Take a look at the existing PumLantern designs or the shell source files if you need something to reference to.

Could be a record for the largest array of cooperating autonomous robots […]
Fun fact: The Friday before Easter used to be just like any other day of the week. But then they ('they' who? THE GREAT THEY, THAT'S WHO) decided that no, this Friday should be set apart from all the other Fridays of the year. So they tried attaching different names. First was Bad Friday, which […]
We have a pretty darn big announcement for you today: we're now distributing Open Beam! It's a new handy-dandy construction system that got its start from Kickstarter, and is gaining a lot of immediate support. Right now, we're stocking all the items except for the kits, which we'll probably bring onboard in the near future. […]
