Sometimes, fans design the coolest of things.
Last year (although we’re just discovering and geeking out over it now), Nathan Archer – a graphic designer from Tallahassee, FL – designed a set of wallpapers for the iPhone and iPad to emulate one of the greatest things ever to show up in a DC comic book: the Mother Box. Given that the iPhone and iPad are somewhat emulative of these once mythic devices, it seems only appropriate to have the ability to dress your device up in such a fashion, and this is exactly what Archer gave to us via the internet.
As Archer writes on his site,
If you’re a DC fanboy with a love a gadgets then there’s only ever been one computer you truly crave: the Mother Box. Living computers created by the New Gods and powered by the Source, these little workhorses can fire energy, heal the wounded and make transport wormholes called Boom Tubes. Now, Apple may be a little behind with some of these technologies, so until they release iPhone ∞, this Mother Box wallpaper will have to do.
Check after the cut for both designs, and be sure to visit Archer’s site for more graphic awesomeness.
