		<description><![CDATA[Alright, I&#039;m okay with Snaps not being in the final game&#039;s parties, but some other paparazzi member better show up. Please? 
Snaps is really useful for playing spy against Viri. 

Or have his style of camera in the background of one of the final design maps and with McGee scribbled on the side. But in a display case. Because Snaps was (is?) that important. And the amount of dust on the camera could specify how long ago the beta parties were. That doesn&#039;t count as dating the game, does it? 

That would happify me. And Viri. And Snaps. Ya know, if you have some spare wall space.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, their house was totally mid-century modern, but Edna&#039;s place was from a totally different period, the bad guy&#039;s place on the island was different too, etc.  The way they mixed the different time periods together was awesome.  I mean, it&#039;s not even clear if their house was actually in the mid-century, or they just decorated it that way because danish modern is so trendy, etc.

I don&#039;t want to nix the 60s, I just don&#039;t want to be pigeonholed in the 60s and feel &quot;retro&quot;.  I want some retro, some future, some present, and I want the blend to be &quot;timeless&quot;.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, if you&#039;re shooting for &quot; not retro, not futuristic,&quot; then I&#039;d say the first image you posted from &#039;The Incredibles&#039; is probably the worst possible inspiration you could have picked. It&#039;s very much both. Furniture from this era is used in The Jetsons, sorta the pinnacle of what we view as futuristic. Plus, it&#039;s super trendy right now. 

All of that furniture is mid-century modern, both the chair and sofa look Danish.
Quick and dirty googling found pics of actual pieces these look like;
sofa: http://www.dejavulongbeach.com/sold-items/danish-sofa/8456107
chair: http://furniturebyljindustries.com/seating/#.UMnGM3fULg0

The coffee table a modified Adrian Pearsall 1960&#039;s atomic table, maybe inspired by this one:
http://www.objectculture.com/modhaus-secure/detail.asp?id=13894
He did sectional and platform sofas, too, so the whole room may well have been inspired by him.

So weird that you&#039;d specifically call out the &#039;60s as an era to avoid, because that is exactly what the picture depicts. It&#039;s &#039;Mad Men&#039; without the suits. Not saying it&#039;s a bad style or you should nix it. It just struck me as funny that you framed it the way you did.]]></description>
