Henchman's Helper
Henchman's helper now has its own site. This is a thing I was inspired to make by an active desktop item that was floating around a long time ago. The idea is this is the online version of that giant wall that the bad guys in movies, evil scientists, mad doctors etc. stare at when they plot. It's got a sinister feel to it.

Good job. I thinks this is really relaxing: and gives a neat perspective on those places!

I got a warning from my browser (Google Chrome). Apparently your site includes some malware?

It does not!
Its just images, CSS, and some javascript. I'll double check with chrome though.

One of the weather pictures comes from nifada.com, which Google claims links to adware. It doesn't look to me like there's any actual danger from the weather image itself, but who knows.

Yay! I'd lost the link to the previous iteration somewhere, thanks for the update.
BTW, in Safari 3.1.2 not all the screens load consistently; if a non-loading screen is clicked, the loading/progress bar appears, but nothing happens, and the tab must be refreshed. (esc doesn't cancel the loading process)

that happens when you click on an image before the camera is loaded in, in any browser. I don't know how to fix that one...
