Self-referenced mug?
« on: April 16, 2009, 10:23:01 pm »

What do you guys think of this mug?



I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but it seems to show an image of itself, which would contain another image of itself containing an image of itself, etc.....all done in topaz.  ???

I don't know what amazed me more, my first self-referencing artifact or an enraged groundhog tearing out my hunter's left eye after being stricken mace-style by a crossbow.

Now all we need are dwarves making artifacts that reference future artifacts referencing the artifact just made.
