I kept waiting for the picture where they became self-aware and launched nukes to exterminate us...

RGB colorspaces give me hives, so that @badpng thing doesn't work for me. But I love what quilt bot is doing, injecting pattern. This image is lovely.

I shot some stuff at these bots, they came out ok. I love this stuff. Bots just bouncing off one another is some of my favorite stuff online.

Eventually it all became Cat pictures. Which explains a lot really.
