December 2009 Wallpaper
Merry Christmas everybody! After a short delay due to a holiday, the December wallpaper is now live. The wallpaper is based on a present, complete with wrapping paper, ribbon and tag.
The tiling pattern is actually based on the Koch Snowflake. It’s mathematical basis allows it to be tiled in a number of ways, which can be seen on this Wolfram Alpha page.
I’m really excited with the possibilities 2010 brings, so expect more wallpapers, blogs and other goodies still in the pipeline.
Thanks for reading, I appreciate all the comments and tweets and wish you all a Merry Christmas.

November 2009 Wallpaper
After a brief, one month absence the monthly wallpaper is back!
The November 2009 wallpaper is very minimalist, based on a simplistic pixel grid, inspired by the recently launched cleartypemedia.com. The font is the fantastic Vegur (Extra Light) Don’t worry if this isn’t your cup of tea—expect a festive theme for December!.

September 2009 Wallpaper
For September, I was inspired by the work of Andy Gilmore and created this months wallpaper around the geometric styling of his work.
August 2009 Wallpaper
My third wallpaper-of-the-month, and this time it has a Twitter theme. I have decided not to add a calendar to it (but if you object, please let me know, but it at least allows you to have the wallpaper for more than one month of the year)
July 2009 Wallpaper
This is my second monthly wallpaper, and this time it has been based around a Julius Caesar quote. After all, July was named after the Roman leader
June 2009 Wallpaper
