The 'PC gone mad' QOTW has got me to thinkin about these little guys
= Golliwog
Remember them? A true casualty of the modern PC world I feel.
Are they really offensive to black people?
To me at the time I couldn't see why rag dolls shouldn't have a few 'ethnically challenged' friends but I guess it's the 'Minstrel' likeness and the name that we balk at.
Whaddya reckon kids?
I've put him into the mini challenge anyhoo so I guess the votes will decide whether he's still offensive or now ironically right-on...

CRAW!!!
= Zoidberg!! :D
Once someone made me think of it earlier I had to do it! Vote if you want it!

I made another possible board icon for ya'all:
Either you've had a visit from these little fellers at some point in your life or you haven't but as they're tiny too it amused me to make an icon of one
I give you the crab-louse:
shame I can't get his little arms waving at you sullenly just like the real thing...
Anyhoo vote if you want him! A vote for Crablouse is a vote for freedom (to scratch!)
Altho frankly I can't imagine why anyone would want him but what do I know I didn't think anyone would want Jesus either....

Jesus!

No I don't know why either I'm just still playing but you don't get much more iconographic than this guy do you?
Vote if you want it for a board icon!

Ok, here we go, last of my icons for now (unless I get a flash of 'Oooh, must try that!'
here we go last of my icons for now (unless I get a flash of 'Oooh must try that!'Firstly the requests:
= Lemming
= 'Cute' Ghosty

= JetSetWilly altho this one is a cheat as he is too tall so the hat would have to be a seperate hat (as it is here) otherwise it's just a pixel bloke
= My last attempt at getting VINCENT right had to remove his gyros and squash him in a bit but not bad...
And may as well repost the others I did today:
= Magnet
= Zebedee
= Pretty flower
= Have a b3ta day
And yesterday:
= Transformers
= Hello Kitty
= Heil Kitler
= Pirate Sword
= B3ta onscreen
Aaaaand I reckon I'm prolly done for now so get voting if you want Rob to use any of 'em. Cheers!

Shitting christ these are addictive.
And probably bindun..
- Sonic.
- Nes controller.
- Nes controller version 2.
- For all those lady b3tans tired of being called "him".
- Because the blokes don't want to be left out.
- Piggeh.
- Berk from Trapdoor.
- A biffday cayke.
- A little bit of Bakelite never hurt anyone.
- So b3tans can smoke indoors.
- An impossible triangle. Permanent mental urine.
- A bowling ball.
Some icons from last night.

Good Ning
I did more icons for the mini challenge:
= Magnet
= Zebedee
= Pretty flower
= Have a b3ta day (not that keen on this one but I've made it now so have it)
BTW does anyone know is it possible to view the ones others have done as I can't find a way and it means I may be making ones others have already done better.
Also any requests as all mine so far are fairly self indulgent 'What I want' ones but I've got a good method and set up going now so can knock these out fairly easily (tho not everything makes a good icon I tried doing VINCENT last night and I just can't get him to look recognisable in the 15x13 px format due to his portrait aspect ratio: VINCENT =
tho I guess chopping off his 'legs' is an option but width is still an issue as his eyes really dictate the scale).

To redeem myself a tad, I made a Transformers Logo icon
I made a Transformers Logo icon
and I realised it has a certain similarity to another well known icon logo:

They are addictive until you run out of ideas =[
