    @Molona, ah well, great idea. My art skills blow hard, so...well, I guess they're OKish. Not well honed and I lack patience at times; so stick drawings and smilie reuse are where its at for me!

    @Poes. New cat. Vim saved it and it's pet parrot from a horrible fate on a sinking ship. Sweet.

    OMG Poes, I'm such a twit sometimes.
    Somehow I stumbled on some site or other that pointed out it was talk like a pirate day. I was thinking, hmm I wonder if THAT is why Poes changed to a pirate cat. I come back to check, and then I stop to read your new title.

    Now I feel shame. So inattentive. I should be forced to walk the plank after I'm done scrubbing the deck...

    I sent this last Tuesday, but the Flickr page seems to have stagnated so I'll repost it here to confirm my entry.

    Good thing artistic talent isn't required!

    Note: While I did draw this myself, a lot of the features were traced.

    The drawing is so much better than mine... I think I'll follow the smilies route suggested by BLZ... it seems to be easier for me

    It is better to send it to forums@sitepoint.com. I'll upload it to flickr

    Lawlz it has the kitchen sink!!!!!! You get ++ for kitchen sink.

    I've been keeping that away from my Emacs guy because it's so overused but, now I do have to include it at least on his tshirt. Lawlz.

    When I've pencilled all the characters, I'm going to just post them here and later if I get them inked I'll repost.

    At least put up the scan.
    I put up a transparent png and some smilies. The bar can't get lower unless we start burying it, so you aren't allowed some vague sense of shame as an excuse!

    Trust me, I understand the feeling. Last week was hell for me, and this week has been even worse Must be end of the month's craziness

    Actually, I thought that yours were funny... but one of our requirements was the work had to be original meaning yours... Shame that transparent gifs were so widely used in all webs
