Stained glass seems to be making a comeback, but it's not ordinary patterns, it's crazy features like shagging skeletons and wild street art.
This gallery shows what happens when geeks do stained glass. My problem with these examples is that the images are crappy. A beautifully done Darth Vader, or storm trooper, would look amazing. The Darth Vader that is featured here (look for the triangle head) most certainly isn't a stunning creation. I am sorry, but it really is spectacularly rubbish, even with the really long story behind its design.
Others such as the digdug machine and pixel window clearly rule.
