Thanks for the elucidation, jaclaz!

and, by the way, great video about the same-color-grey squares.

 

But, being a chipmunk in the "be the nut" mode, I have no *concept* of COLOR, since I only see in shades of grey, as you correctly stated.

 

So, as far as COLOR goes, all I'm able to say is:

Just in case :

jaclaz, in your image...

that be a photo of my chipmunk cousin, Fat Albert,

who really isn't fat,

because he sold all his nuts,

so that he could buy a bunch of Bugs Bunny^TM comic books.

He looks fat,

because he's wearing a fur coat,

which he stole from

Zsa Zsa Gabor,

the famous actress,

who is now 197 years old,

and still going strong.

In order to have a pleasant online experience,

 

 

"troll" spelled backwards, of course, is "dummy".

 

If you don't believe it, see it here, where I'm spelling "dummy" backwards, to give: "troll".

 

See, we're back to square one.

 

Of course, both "troll" and "dummy" are palindromes.

 

But those details are best left to an elucidation in one of my future posts.

As you all know, this is a thread in the "Graphics and Designing Art" forum.

This post doesn't concern a "Graphics Art", but it surely does concern a "Designing Art".

Beethoven, an ultimate designer, "Ode to Joy":

"There is no loftier mission than to approach the Godhead nearer than other people,

and to disseminate the divine rays among humanity."

Ludwig van Beethoven

I wrote "dancing", but I really wanted to write "twerking",

but I didn't know how to spell it,

and there were absolutely *no* online references

to provide the correct spelling of "twerking".

 

I checked Wikipedia,

and they were no help at all:

Howdy, LostInSpace2012:

 

This image is hot off my mysteriously-magical graphics-makin' machine.

Here, Vincent van Gogh be doin' the squirtin',

Pee Wee Herman be doin' the celebratin',

all the fruits be joyously celebratin',

and Darth Vader be doin' the cryin'.

@LostInSpace2012:

 

I took another look at the image in my last post, with "fresh eyes", and Vincent's face looked too pale.

 

So, I made another version:

 

 

I like this one better. Of course, with a face that small, it's hard to get all the details in,

but it "kinda" looks like Vincent, to me.

 

What do you think?

 

Larry

[larryb123456]

And then I worked on Vincent's arm

made it more muscular

and lengthened his coat sleeve

 

This one is my favorite.

 

 

It kinda looks like Vincent is driving the Joy bottle "vehicle" (a convertible) and doing a drive-by shooting on Mr. Vader. (lol)

Cool, Larry. They're both great. Well done :-)

I will switch up my sig later when I get to the library.

You rock!

[larryb123456]

Well, LostInSpace2012,

 

I went back and did some more work on my image in my last post.

(Just compare the 2 images to see the effectiveness of my changes.)

 

Change 1:

I made the yellow Joy bottle squirt actually impact on Mr. Vader's helmet,

rather than stopping some distance away.

 

Change 2:

I added more color to Mr. Herman's face so that he doesn't look as anemic.

See, he be in outer space and receiving all them intense radiations from all them

gamma ray bursts emanating from the constellation Orion^TM.

And I made Mr. Herman' tongue a little more pink,

cause, as you might know, he be always lickin'

on them strawberry lollipops.

 

And this be my final version (I think)

and this be the version I likes bestest:

 

 

Well, thanks for sayin' I rock.

Well, I really don't rock.

What that rock sound is is -- (excuse me for stuttering) -- the sound of my brain slamming against the inside of my skull

when I be doin' all them intense concentrations

doin' my graphics.

See, my brain is as dense as a rock.

Actually, it is so dense that it be a diamond.

One advantage of this is that

my eyes twinkle in the dark.

thanks, Larry. It's locked and loaded.

[larryb123456]

You're welcome, LostInSpace2012

 

locked and loaded, for sure

 

Vincent has Darth locked in his Joy-bottle-convertible machine-gun sights

 

and Pee Wee is for-sure loaded

on whatever mind-altering substances

he be takin'

 

(I think he been mainlining Joy^TM)

I made this userbar in November, 2013,

as a expression of my sincere belief and wish that

happiness.

If I were making the userbar today, I would replace the word "need" with "deserve" -- for sure.

be definitely belongin' in the Graphics and Designing Art forum.

 

If you don't think so, well,

EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE ME !!!

and go ahead and sue me.

 

IMO, the Jim Carrey interpretation is a total laugh riot.

 

If you aren't even *moderately amused* by the above post,

then you be a total
