I've released my tool for encoding pixel art on floppy disk tracks.
Because that is surely a thing that people will want to do? I don't know. I just get ideas and dumb stuff happens.

A couple of days ago I was cutting various window decorations from paper. It's always fun doing so!
We've already placed those decorations, currently setting up New Years Tree.
Happy Holidays!
