      Just another splash screen I made while learning photoshop. This one is inspired by the TV show "Lost".

        @quicksilver this is infinitely less disappointing than Lost. Well done!

          @markyh444 thanks! I loved that show and I just knew they were going to answer all my questions. Then I started to realize that they were just making it up as they went along and there were no answers. Still the Dharma initiative was one of the more interesting parts of the show.

            @quicksilver I agree. I have still gone back and re-watched it a couple of times as well. Always have an feeling of dread when I get to the end of series 4 though because I know they just won't do it right!

                  @herb_fargus I'm guessing "Lost" borrowed the eight trigrams symbols from Taoism (just looked this up). The Dharma initiative was a mysterious group on the show with ties to Eastern tradition, so it makes sense.

                  I never new that the symbols meant anything before. Thanks for pointing that out, otherwise I never would have looked it up.
