Description

“The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” - Saint Augustine

And so I thought I could at least make such a page. This theme is mainly featuring photos about cultures rather than nature. As a great fan of traveling and the National Geographic magazine, I thought it would be great to make a theme like this.

I didn't make the photos in this theme myself (if that could only be true...) and I do not wish to get in problems with author rights. So I tried to seek the names of all authors. The list below describes every photo with the author.

Globe - NASA (who else?)
Angor Wat, Cambodia - Steve McCurry http://www.stevemccurry.com/
Chinese Mountains - Michael Yamashita http://www.michaelyamashita.com/
Bushmen, Southern Africa - Chris Johns
Elephant with Mount Kilimanjaro, Kenya - Steven Pollack
Statue of Liberty, USA - Derek Jensen http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Tysto
New York City Serenade, USA - Joisey Showa http://www.joiseyshowaa.com/
Geisha - Jodi Cobb http://www.jodicobb.com/
Machu Picchu, Peru - Martin St-Amant http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:S23678

If anyone of the photographers doesn't feel good about this theme featuring his/her photo, just contact me (see the 'developer website' link for contact through deviantart).
I couldn't find all names so there are some photo's with an unknown author. I still want to mention those ones too, in case anyone is wondering what he or she sees on the collage.

Paris by Night, France
Louvre, France
Grand Canyon, USA
Shrine of Hazrat Ali, Afghanistan (I think this photo is made by Steve McCurry)
Uluru (Ayers Rock), Australia
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Kremlin, Russia
Taj Mahal, India

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
