iPhone Wallpaper: My Contribution.

// February 28th, 2008 // 4 Comments » // Photography, Technology

I took personal favorites out of my 200 most popular flickr pictures and converted them into the iPhone accepted wallpaper size of 320 to 480 pixels.

Feel free to modify them or whatever, they are all with a creative commons license.

Enjoy these free iPhone wallpapers:

That’s it for now. If I can ever afford an iPhone myself, I’ll probably make more.

I can’t even test them… *cry*

Insane rain in Pudong!

// August 2nd, 2007 // 1 Comment » // China, Videography

I just had left my home to walk to Longyang road to grab a subway to go downtown for lunch with a friend, when a insane rainstorm started. In the last days it had rained here every once in a while, mostly for about 5 minutes. So I thought ‘let’s wait’, which was a big mistake. 3 minutes later I was completely wet, from up to down. If you watch the video, the moment where I use the f-word, that’s when the rain changed direction and hit my body completely. A thunderbolt every 20 seconds or so. Insane. Of course a cellphone camera (here: Nokia N93i) can’t really capture the forces of nature, but you get a idea of what was going on. Or is still going on. While typing this entry, it’s still raining outside…

Saturday: Moving to Pudong.

// May 17th, 2007 // 2 Comments » // China

Yes, my life is in little boxes at the moment. We’re moving to our new apartment on saturday, and we managed to finish packing two days in advance. Thank god I have that german will to be best prepared. For a time I even wanted to put ‘I’m not handicapped, I’m german!’ into the header, but I guess that’d be too much. Anyways, the only things still standing now are our bed, obviously, and my computer. The rest is packed, except for toothbrushes and small stuff like that. It was no pleasure packing in the Shanghaian heat, but what can you do… On the bright side, our new apartment simply rocks. But more about that later. When I have pictures. Until monday or so, I’m out. Hope I got the ADSL by then.
