Easy way to generate backgrounds for web site banners

If you are not a born designer, making background images for your web sites is always a headache. Since I felt lazy to always go to a designer, I found some online tools to do that for me. Hope they will help others like me as well.

These low poly backgrounds were always fascinated me and wanted to use some in my web sites as well.

Java, how to create a list with a single element

 I wanted to create a Java List with a single element. Yet, I wanted to add more elements later. So, I was looking for a couple of ways to do this. So far there are multiple elegant ways to create a list with a single element with a one-liner. Not so much for a modifiable list though. Here's what I gathered so far.
