Default Off the wall question - wood under the computer case

I know this question is VERY off the wall and a little strange, but i was surfing the web yesterday looking for reviews on various computer cases and saw a picture of someone who had their home pc case sitting on a nice piece of wood so that it was up off the carpeted floor. i now can't find that picture. would anyone happen to know the picture i'm referring to?

I haven't seen anything like it for a computer but I suspect it's probably something in the likes of this?

Pedestal kinda thing ...
