    Post RobA's Compass rose featured in Iphone video

    Our reach is beyond Science Fiction and Fantasy...maybe, as a guild we do have zeitgeist relevance.

    RobA's compass rose posted in this thread has made it on the Iphone and in one of their advertisements (application author - Tommy Westerberg).

    The next time you are lost in the wilds and need your Iphone to show you the way out....thank RobA and Tommy!

    Please join my heaping loads of Kudos on RobA and giving him truly deserved rep for a great achievement.

    We're famous!

    Or if you're wondering whether to go to the Tavern or the Castle....there's an app for that!

    haha. Nope. I had released the compass on the open clip art library (OCAL) as public domain. I was just glad the developer 1) asked and 2) let me know apple wanted to make an ad with his app!
