Ed's Blood Berry Beam Katana

ed in his costume with a blood berry beam katana

A couple days ago, a mysterious post appeared in DotEd's blog. It informed us that a lot of supplies had been purchased; we had no idea what he was up to (as usual).

In the meantime, a Halloween Costume CoN+est (by N+) rapidly approached its deadline. With just days before, DotEd started working on his costume entry. Today we could finally see what all that duck tape, spray cans and glue had been used for: A Blood Berry Beam Katana and Travis Touchdown costume!

Check out his Blood Berry Beam Katana gallery if you want to express your thoughts.

If you think this is good, then digg it. Let's see how many diggs we can get!

He Made One — We Made One

Well, not per se, but close enough. We used pictures from his photo album and made a banner out of it.

Click for banner preview.

Copy/paste this code to your CSS if you'd like (by the way, this banner goes great along with "The Darkside" theme):

#top {
	background:url(http://files.myopera.com/espenao/albums/301917/1katana-banner.jpg) no-repeat !important;
	}

#top h1 {
	color:#fff;
	font-size:16px;
	padding:50px 0 0 10px;
}

#subtitle {
	color:#f1f1f1;
	font-size:12px;
	font-style:italic;
	padding:5px 0 0 10px;
}

What? There's more?
