I've been disenfranchised....
I can't vote. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Well, just to kill some time....
Here is my explanatory paragraph.
My entry represents the feeling of voters in america, the average worker in a world of increasing globalization, and anything else that will make you feel warm and fuzzy about yourself as a happy, self-actualized human being.
Make your votes count....Eric needs those pencils!!!!!!!
And with your third vote, vote for droosan or BobW.
God Bless Us, everyone....even Russian Judge!

I don't need a paragraph, just a title/subtitle:

Droosan, you completely had the same idea I did! I hadn't had time to realise it, but I was going to but thousands of little demons under a sheet going trick-or-treating. The only clues would've been the eyeholes with more than one eye in them, hundreds of little feet around the bottom edge of the sheet and one lagging behind.
![[cheers]](graemlins/cheers.gif) Good luck all!

Some really good entries!
I know mine's random as usual, so there's no use trying to figure it out. It's for a medical lecture based on a case study on Third nerve palsy, and the doctor is a big Poe fan. Just something from my archives to get in on the Halloween fun; I know it's not exactly "on topic".
Happy Haunting, everyone!

Cool! I had a lot of fun coming up with that pic, and with the last contest, too!
I don't spend nearly enough time creating stuff just for the fun of it .. gotta start doing that more often.
Thanks, Animation Nation!

For the interested: my entry was 'tradigital', in that the characters were hand-drawn. but the environment was CG:
I modeled the rooms in a skewed/curved fashion for the 'fish-eye' perspective. Much of the detailing I'd planned to add (such as a stove, sink, and curtains for the kitchen) never got completed, because I'd decided to build it all on the final Saturday of the contest. ![[blush]](graemlins/blush.gif)
Did anyone catch the fact that the Mom is wearing glasses in the portrait, but is not wearing them in the kitchen ..? I thought it was a fun detail, but no one I've shown this to seems to pick up on it, 'til I point it out ..

CG?
Who invited Milli Vanilli?
Just kidding, that was great droosan, congrats. Some mighty fine entries all the way around.
Hambone, when I saw yours I instantly thought "OOooohhhhhhh, It's a medical lecture based on a case study on Third nerve palsy!" It sent a chill down my spine. Theres just something about those ol' medical lectures based on a case study on Third nerve palsies that chills me to the core every time.

Yee-haaa. I'm the Badnarik of Animation Nation!
Way to go, Droosan, BobW and Hedman! Top-notch work! (But I still control the Congress.)
Yeah, Dole, I think voters were just *too* darn scared of mine. A lot of people get weak in the knees at the sight of a 19th-Century guy looking at a bird. I guess, artistically, I just don't know my own strength sometimes, and now I'm paying the price for that. [restrained sob]
By the way, Droosan, your characters have great appeal, and I *did* notice the mom's glasses and thought it was a nice little touch.

I didn't notice the glasses thing. She's got a lot more appeal without 'em, but in the portrait she looks much more family-mommish. The curve really takes the whole idea up a notch. Great stuff.
hey Hamsterbite-- I'd like to use that picture and your explanation this month when we cover gothic literature in my junior English class. We normally do the Raven, and I wasn't going to this year, but your piece inspires me to give it a shot again.

Rupert-
I'd be honored. Go ahead and use it. Heck, I could e-mail you the moving version, which shows the actual abnormal movement of the eyes, with a couple of blinks thrown in. Sounds tempting, eh? Actually, it doesn't add that much for a non-medical audience. (Even I realize that.) So just right-clicking should get it for you, I assume.
Eric-
I'm not sure I exactly follow your posts, but they're funny. And that's what counts, right?

Thanks! Before doing this caricature, I never made the connection between his hair and the feathers of a raven.
