An Isometric New York by Eboy

Fonts, Fonts, Fonts Galore!
You can never have enough fonts. OK, I guess you can if you have to keep them loaded in memory all the time. that would be a drag. Anyway, if you ever wanted to spell something in a font from a movie, game, product, or just about anything else you can find them here. Best of all, it’s free! Cool, eh?

DIY Hologram Kit
This kit allows you to make your own holograms in your own home, even with the lights turned on! You get enough self developing plates to create 20 images so you can let your imagination go and make holograms of just about anyhing. It’s amazing just to thing that 20 years ago doing this at home required more equipment just to dampen the vibrations than parts that come in this kit to make the entire ‘gram.
