In this video we learn how to make aircrete (or aerocrete) using a new method that has no need for specialty tools, and only requires grocery store ingredients.

Thanks to Prana-Tech for letting me use his clips of common aircrete methods! He has some great videos on the subject, including how to make a foam generator for only $20.

The original Mozilla "Dinosaur" logo artwork

It has come to my attention that the artwork for the original mozilla.org "dinosaur" logo is not widely available online. So, here it is.

As I explained in some detail in my 2016 article "They Live and the secret history of the Mozilla logo", I commissioned this artwork from Shepard Fairey to use as the branding of the newly-founded mozilla.org and our open source release of the Netscape source code, which eventually became Firefox. This happened in March 1998.

  • I am 100% certain that we (Netscape) purchased the artwork outright.

  • I am 99% certain that some time in 1998 or 1999, the artwork was open sourced under the terms of the then-new Netscape Public License.

However, I find that I can't actually prove either of these things. Can you?

I see this document that was on the Mozilla.org web site in 2005 that asserts that, though the rest of the web site is CC BY-SA 2.0, the red dinosaur is trademarked.

I don't believe that's true. I think that's lawyerly overreach. I believe the dinosaur had already been released and could not be clawed back in this way.

But what do I know. Anyway, here are all of the original vector images. Come at me.


These are the first batch of drawings that Shepard did for us. The original files were PostScript, but I have converted them to PDF and PNG for modern sensibilities:

PS, PDF.
PS, PDF.
PS, PDF.

You probably didn't know the dinosaur had legs!

Here's the artwork for the CD we gave away at the first anniversary party in 1999.

Ai, PDF.

And here are some "Netscape Now!"-style banners that some other division inside Netscape commissioned a different design firm to make, shortly thereafter. (Why they didn't just get Shepard to do it, I don't know.) Some of these were once hosted on mozilla.org.

Round two:

(If you don't see a whole bunch of wide banner anim-GIFs above, turn off your ad blocker on this site! Yes, it tripped me up too.)

Previously, previously, previously, previously.

I'm going through an "I'm starting to agree with things Matthew Inman says" arc and I'm not sure how to feel about it. I hope it's mostly a sign of him growing up and putting his popularity to good use.
