Medieval Gargoyles

Even though I like to think gargoyles were put into place by medieval builders to scare away tourists, they basically are just spouts designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building, preventing erosion.

These two I saw on an old church in Utrecht, The Netherlands:

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/250s}

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 220mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/200s}

However practical these things may be, their designs do seem to illustrate evil, and many find them scary.

Maybe we could work two of these into the graphic design surrounding the Trending Page. Self-mockery is better than no mockery at all sometimes, and who knows who they will ward off.
