totally offtopic, but...: how/where can you get your picture traced in a guilloche pattern like that (other than paying an artist to hand draw it)?
Get the Wall Street Journal to do an article about you, which is how I assume Kent did it.

Do you have mathematica installed? http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/8716/how-to-c...
nope. seems like a bunch of nice ideas but the results are not even close in style and "artistic quality" to Kent's photo or the original example from mathematica.stockechange... seems like the only way to have it done by an artist... or maybe combine by hand contours and "fills" generated by the different techniques in that thread... anyway, thanks a lot for the link, whenever I'll be in the mood of wanting to sharp…

Yep. Fulfillment of a childhood dream, that. I'm just sad Ward didn't get his picture in there too. He doesn't get his (large) share of the credit.
Surely Ward will get his picture in the WSJ in some kind of article about Wikis, if it hasn't happened already.
