Wasting time when I should be working. I was reading through jwz's blog and someone linked to the icon contest winners. I saw Marsh named as the artist who spruced up the animation, so I checked if his company had a website portfolio.

It's comforting to see all the folders turned upright. Ever since Vista they've been sideways, spilling your documents all over the taskbar (this is why I moved my taskbar to the side).
