Worlds most expensive blog template?

by Grant Robertson Jul 30th 2007

How much would you pay for a blog template? $49.95, $29.95? Or how about free with a little homegrown modification? That's what most of us would opt for. There is a market for pay templates, but we wonder quite seriously if there is a solid market for this one. This $4000 template for Movable Type is designed for an online newspaper, but frankly doesn't look so super special to us.

Sure, it's mostly black and white. Somewhat well formatted, and displays well in Kanji but, $4k US? What's the creator smoking and, if you don't mind us asking, where can we get some?

Whats worse is that Six Apart want to charge an extra 105,000 yen (880 USD) for a "maintenance fee" every year...

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
