from Decorative Patterns of the Ancient World, by Petrie Flinders, 1930: "Octopus" and "Cross Emblems, Pagan and Christian Age"

The book is free on the Internet Archive with over a hundred pages of blackline motifs. I would love to find a similar book with more East Asian, Islamic, or pre-Columbian designs.

Early this morning, I had minor success in making one of my Internet Archive uploads more complete. My dump of InsaneHeat.com, a former fan site for the Invictus racing game Insane, has 11 more vehicle files for a total of 462, with some 137 to go. It also now has Utilities and imap folders, along with more skins and maps. This goes on to show that I don't just dump stuff on the Archive; I make them whole when possible.

Does anyone else remember Tux Racer, the old #Linux racing game from way back? Does anyone else also remember tuxracer.fubaby.com, where people would share their courses? Any way to download all the courses again? Sorry, but I want to upload all of them on the Internet Archive. I could only retrieve some of them from the Wayback Machine.

Guys, get out your Internet Archive accounts. A video game repository called Myrient is closing down tomorrow, and a staggering 390+ terabytes of data will disappear with it. I am currently saving webpages at /Eggman's Arcade Repository/!EXTRAS/. Unfortunately, nearly all the saves are 404 errors, even though the files can still be downloaded directly from the site, so we may need to upload them.
