iCE's Modern Version Of Old-Fashioned Quilting Bee 138
Ant writes "tiles.ice.org is a Web site with a cool art idea as a tribute to Salvador Dali. It is iCE (remember ANSI art, you old school computer users?)'s answer to the old-fashioned quilt party, minus the gathering of elderly women. It's a unique opportunity for collaborative artwork on the net. A huge image, composed of individual 'tiles' is created, one piece at a time. The goal when making a tile is to mesh your work as smoothly as possible with the surrounding tiles, while creating something cool, artistic, and if applicable, on-topic. Check out the finished sample. I love the ants in the quilt tiles!"

iCE has always been an excellent organization of artists that are extremely talented and have remained friends for a long time now. Tiles is proof of the many great ideas Jon (slothy) has had over the years. Looking at the work in the tiles is pretty interesting and its a lot of fun.
Nice to see it on slashdot. I know Jon and other iCE members such as myself are frequent readers of slashdot.
Enjoy!

Cool! Where's the "download quilt" button? (Score:3, Informative)
What this really needs is a download button so I can download the composite quilt and use it as a desktop or something
I guess I'll just have to take a couple screenshots and stitch them together manually...
