New Newton Battle Wallpapers Available at 36 Point!


First thing's first — that there above image is a freebie wallpaper for your iPhone or iPod touch, so grab it while the grabbin's good! And while we're at it, if you like the iChat or use forums a lot, I made you a little Newton avatar, too:


These are all for a set of giveaways on 36 Point for people who can now make small donations, for any amount they choose (yes, even 1¢), to help the site stay on top of hosting fees and other associated costs of running the site and the world's best graphic-design webcomic and podcast. I also made a Paper Dummy (our name) of Newton that builds into a 4" toy with only cutting and folding, no glue! The full-res PDF — as well as the desktop wallpaper in a myriad of sizes— is only available here, as a thanks to people who support 36 Point. HUGS.

from Nate Voss to you.
