It was bound to happen. Progress.

Soon, you won't really be able to tell the difference between what is a real picture and what isn't.... not just for pictures, but for animations as well.

Sorry but it's a vimeo vid and won't embed with the code they give. 

Anyway, you can see more about Kevin Karsch on his homepage.  http://kevinkarsch.com/publications/sa11.html

We have talked about this many times before, and I wanted to share another tip for both people who are looking to spread the word about their skins, or just members who would like more customization topics to read about.  I got a nice e-mail from a moderator at Reddit who has a sub-forum over there dedicated to desktop skinning.
