Before I get on with the post, I should make an announcement. I’ve noticed some bloggers out there who do custom artwork to enhance the uniqueness of their site. I’ve decided to join in the fun. Now, I have to warn you a little – my artwork is so elegant and so precise, and the maturity of my technique, hue selection and presentation is so professional that you may not believe it is derived from my own hand and mind. I assure you; it is. I did not download images off teh internets and claim it as my own. But the stuff you see here might be so good that you might think I downloaded or paid an actual artist to create it.
I shall call these new creations “whallart”. The art of whall. Like, art you might find hanging on the whall. As in, a whall virtually covered with art. Any blog post I have that has whallart will be tagged with the category “whallart“. You hereby grant you the right to print it out and hang it on your whall.
Now on with the post.
I’ve pestered my “in-person” friends about this a couple of times, and have only received one valid response so far, and I’m still not so sure about it anyway. You know how you can ask any kid “Hey kid. What sound does a cow make?” And after they scratch their head a little bit and wonder why you’re covered in peanut butter, they shrug it off and answer “moooo” ? YAY! They know what sound a cow makes! Same goes with any common onomatopoeia, right? Everyone knows what sounds certain animals make, like dogs, cats, sheep, roosters, frogs, ducks, donkeys, horses, snakes, etc.But what about the bunny?
I think someone who figures this out should get a Nobel prize.
Well, let’s see. My niece’s bunny makes this high pitch ‘ee’ noise. Spoo (oops spelled backward) doesn’t make any noise unless she is pissed off. So he goes ‘ee’ when she’s mad.
On a cute note, Lady (my former dog that my mother stole from me) loved to play with Spoo… She would chase Spoo all over the living room. Spoo lives in the house. She has a potty box like a cat, and makes it most times… She likes to spread her crap around though.
As for Whallart, god you are shameless. Can’t you be unique? You gotta be just like Blogography? Actually, I thought about the same thing… But you suck. I hate it when you beat me to the punch.
Your rabbit is okay, but, rabbits don’t have eyebrows, Wayne. Did you even TRY to look up a bunny on the internet before you drew it?
PS: What did you draw it in? Corel Paint sucks.

Cheldear, ‘spoo’ is now my all-time favorite pet name.
Re: my bunny’s eyebrows, I have a couple responses you may choose from. Pick the one that suits you best
#1: those aren’t eyebrows. They’re embarassing mating scars that the bunny would rather not be reminded of, thankyouverymuch. Too much pain.
#2: *my* bunny has eyebrows. You got a problem wid dat?
#3: I didn’t put eyebrows on my bunny. It must be a government conspiracy. Either that, or a browser incompatibility.
#4: I think I know what the eyebrows are that you see. You were reading my blog post while eating breakfast, and came across the overwhelmingly beautiful whallart and were so overcome with emotion and wholeness of spirit, the muffin got caught in your windpipe and you spewed some of it on your monitor.
And to answer the ‘which tool’ question, I used snagit. It leaves a little to be desired. If anything is to be said about the whallart, it’s that the artist is clearly limited by the available tools and crudity of the times. The author of the majestic art is way beyond his time.
Yeah, isn’t spoo cute?
Okay, so here is a list of “real” scenarios from which to choose:
1. The artist is really four years old inside, and barely got past stick figures. He apparently thinks bunnies don’t have eyballs and look like Groucho Marx.
2. Jaden actually drew the picture after seeing Daddy’s original. He fell out of his chair laughing, and Daddy’s manhood was destroyed. Jaden said, “Daddy, let me show you how a real man draws.”
3. The artist decided to draw all night, and didn’t get approval from the wife on his picture. Being a married man, he is supposed to get approval to take a poop, so he is in big trouble now, and grounded from pool league this week and next week. Plus, she is horribly embarrassed that you would even put that drawing on the web. She is afraid of what her friends will think of the man she chose to marry. then, she goes into a tirade about taking the trash out, fixing crap around the house, and basically everything else she’s been pissed about over the last 14 years.
Are you telling me snagit lets you draw now? Are you sure? It’s just a screen shot capturing tool… I meant, what did you DRAW it in?
Chelle
#3 is _so_ off…. It’s 15 years.
And yes, Snagit let’s you draw. It has a pen, line, shape tool, stamper, eyedropper, bucket, and airbrush. I’m either on snagit 7 or 8… I forget. Just do a screenshot of something and it should show up on the left. Let me know if you still can’t see it. The program component is called SnagIt Editor.
Cheldear, and re: your #1… The bunny is sleeping. That’s why you can’t see his eyeballs. Doesn’t his pose make that obvious? He’s eaten a ton of carrots and has fallen back for a little nap.
In that case, bunnies dont’ make ANY sounds when they are asleep.
do I get my nobel prize now?
Cheldear
I think your question got answered. Sleeping? No sound. Being torn to shreds in the wild? They scream a high-pitched sound that give you goosebumps and makes your nuts shrivel up into your body… well, so I ‘ve been told… seeing as I don’t have nuts. But I can vouch for the goosebumps.
