David A Hardy is a space artist. His AstroArt homepage has galleries of art done for science fiction magazines, book covers and commissioned material. Landscapes with two suns, planets with rings, spacemen and the such. Fantastic. My favourite includes a dinosaur, as all good illustrations do.
Another sci-fi artist: The Chris Foss Tribute Page has tons of scans of the airbrushed spaceship pictures that covered most of the books I had when I was a kid.

"Plastic bags don't kill people. Guns kill people". The first Upsideclown of the 2003 is up: New beginnings.

"'No, no. No crime,' said Sherlock Holmes, laughing. 'Only one of those whimsical little incidents which will happen when you have four million human beings all jostling each other within the space of a few square miles. Amid the action and reaction of so dense a swarm of humanity, every possible combination of events may be expected to take place, and many a little problem will be presented which may be striking and bizarre without being criminal. We have already had experience of such.'" -- The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle.

This year, it's been a small world and getting smaller. Aggregating individuality. Abstracting complexity into tipping points and critical states. Clustering and power laws. Social response approximations. Bloody psychohistory almost. Next year, let's not do that. Let's be overwhelmed by the bigness of it all, the maximal complexity of the thisness. Wallow in it. Start arguments we can't win with people we don't share this groupthink vocabulary with. Be earnestly wrong. Oh yes. We can bring this to some kind of new year's resolution all right.
