Theme 05 of 06 / Black, silver, one red
Web Crawler theme
Vector webs grow from the corners of the page, spiders crawl along the threads, one rappels down on a line, and a stamped headline lands in the middle. When the build breaks, a jagged crack tears across the screen, the web falls away and the spiders scatter.
