Space?Trucker also has a great desert photo. I find such images have a very inviting quality.

There is also a wallpaper-sized version on SYNTHWIRE.
For those who may not know, the Serge Modular Synthesizers are kits that can be assembled to build large custom analog synthesizers. There are classic editions, and new editions. You can visit matrixsynth for more images and info, or visit the unofficial fan site.

CatSynth video: cat prelude
From subtone on YouTube, via matrixsynth:
Sounds a bit like a 1980s power ballad…or a music store from my deep dark youth (the two have a lot in common).

CatSynth 2nd Anniversary (and Weekend Cat Blogging)!
July 19 is the Second Anniversary of CatSynth!
And by coincidence, we are hosting Weekend Cat Blogging (really, it is a coincidence). So we invite all our friends to participate and celebrate with us. As always, please leave a comment with your link, and we’ll post it during the roundup later this weekend.
Of course, we must post the photo of Luna that started it all on July 19, 2006:
`
and some fun stats for the occasion. Over two years at CatSynth, we have:657 articles.
2,476 comments.
106,000 visitors.
298 “catsynth pics.”The latter is using some custom analysis tools I created for the occasion, which also provide the top 33 tags/categories here at CatSynth:

Many readers may recall that last year, on our first anniversary, the site went down due to a rather annoying problem with our service provider, and we were sent into exile at the CatSynth FEMA Trailer. So we are leaving an anniversary post at the trailer as well.
A year ago, we at CatSynth had no idea what was going to be in store for us over the next year. A new job, a new home, a new life.
We traded the sun and greenery of our old home:
for our new home:
and life in the big city:
But some things remain the same. Luna, of course, is always here. And our friends and family. And CatSynth!
And we’ll still be here, continuing to do what we always do…
Some other significant milestones this weekend:
The 200th Friday Ark boards this weekend at the modulator.
Our friend Dragonheart is two years old today.
This is week also includes several birthdays for friends, whom we won’t embarrass by announcing their ages on our rather public forum…
It’s only one weekend after the Bad Kitty Cats Festival of Chaos first anniversary, so let us include it as well. This weekend’s edition will be at Life from a Cat’s Perspective with Samantha and Tigger.

Cats on Tuesday: Diggy and Slicky
We visit again this Tuesday with Diggy and her buddy Ein Slicky Vömel from Jacksin Music.
We posted a photo of Diggy and the Access Virus two weeks ago. It generated quite a few comments, including a question from Jewelgirl on how Diggy got her name. This week, Jackson responds with Diggy’s story:
I think she’s the sweetiest-meatiest k-mow ever. She got her real name when I got her 2 years ago (her name was Gracie but she didn’t respond to it so I felt a change was in order). This puffy Siberian k-mow always digs her face onto my fingers/knuckles (Diggy) and is so fluffy & overweight (at the time) & she looked like a massive pillow (Malow) & when she’d eat she was so round she looked like a huge ball (Ball) & that’s how she got the name Diggy Malow Ball.
She’s about 6 years old now & I only hope I have her for as long as I can. Diggy loves to take residence on my lap or bed & curl up to my gear yet is overwhelmingly respectful to avoid my keyboard & tv remote. The perfect cat IMO
I got a buddy for her, Ein Slicky Vömel, but that’s another story…
And we conclude with a photo of Ein Slicky Vömel, with the Virus of course.
