Cheers, Doc! And like everyone else I love the Susie Porcina ad. You may just have stumbled on a previously undiscovered basic human desire to see a pig skate.

But...huh

That would require image manipulation instead of just ripping a finished image of a skating pig :D

I may look into it some weekend.

:lol:

Sure. I haven't made an honest new OXP since Oo-Haul (not counting Lane Legal which was really just a simple re-texturing OXP). Making ads is relaxing because there's no commitment - without the scatterbrained clients with the final say.

It's hard not just to rip a good image and stick something oolitish on it. Of course the ones made from a combination of several ripped images and some home cooked graphics feel more like ones own. But even the simple rips like Susie Porcina take some time - coming up with the name of the pig, the name for the major annual OOZGHL event and producing a logo for the league.

(but it's still a nice break from being a lazy copywriter in RL ;))

Just keep them coming :lol:

...23 to go in set F

@TGHC: I know you were - but I still might look into a pink tutu. The Überball half time show should be wholesome family entertainment without nipple slips or nude porcinoids. ;)

Alazan Dengue, that sounds nasty!

However, I had one of the common Brazilian ones, and am entitled to say that the symptoms aren't at all like that...
You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.
