Seen in multiple locations:

a safe-for-work advertisement in Brazil for lubricant. Impressive, really.

Ah, lube . . .

I'll take thirty gallons (http://snipurl.com/lubricant) please.

As for the placement of the post, kinda reminds me of those little crotch-height XXX poles they have in Amsterdam, which is just wrong on oodles of levels.

BTW, [livejournal.com profile] underwatercolor, darn cool icons.
I envy.

Thank you. :) Compliments get you services, if you'd like something? :)

I like your writing, btw. :)

Aw, thank you! I'm still just beginning to get the hang of LJ, and I find that my writing's getting a bit more confident as I go. Praise helps!

And as for services . . . I totally crave icon services.

My current icon, the tipsy-kitten-in-a-basket has only just recently been borrowed from [livejournal.com profile] pumpsnail, who happened to have it on hand. And I like the thought of a tipsy kitten icon, as I have a reference to tipsy kittens in one of my posts, in a bit about my umlaut issues (http://snipurl.com/umlautenvy).

But I'd love to have some form of icon that actually played on the concept of "shiny blogs". Especially something animated. Like somebody waxing a big shiny "BLOG" with little "shiny"s sparkling off it. I also wish I had something like this:

but with "shiny" instead of "pretty". (Isn't it cute, though? I don't know who the original creator was, so I don't know who to beg for permission to use it.)

Ooh, or a pack of vegetarian supermodels springing through a window to eat a hapless bygawker as he points and goes "ooh! shiny!" Only that'd be kinda twisted. And tough to make in 40k or less . . .

But, really, if there's anything you spot in my blog that makes you think "Oh, I could make something that'd fit that," I'd be delighted to see it, animated or not.

Thanks! That's enough to start from. :)

Oh! See, I haven't actually praised your writing, I don't think, but I enjoy it. It's really funny. :)

If anyone can make you that, the degree to which it would be appropriate is just... amazing. I want to _see_ that! Icon or otherwise, actually.

Icon or otherwise???

Well now, I don't know about "or otherwise." I mean, a live action staging might be painful. Although, if we could replace me with a stunt double just before the carnivorous bit, I suppose I wouldn't mind being in a brief live-action scene with a few supermodels.

And maybe Uma Thurman.
Ooh-mmm-ahhh Thurman.
Now there's a girl with mithril buttocks.

Heh! No, I mean larger sized vs icon, or something in motion!

i couldn't resist....I simply couldn't resist. I had waaaaaay to much making that icon =)

[identity profile] wispfox.livejournal.com 2004-03-01 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't tell what's going on in the last scene of this icon. I can _guess_, but...

[identity profile] theatresphynx.livejournal.com 2004-03-01 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
wow.....that didn't work. At all....I shall have to fix that one/......

heehee

Either way, the effort deserved some props. Sorry to take so long to say so, but you've got a little huglet of a blurb on my blog.

Erm. Yes, well.. I'm not always this slow, I assure you. :)

Sorry about the delay. It's your very own... umm... something. :)

It'll look really terrible on a dark background. If it's a problem, let me know? :)
