The Tarzan's Treepedal attraction, accidentally considered to be the premier single attraction at Disneyland
Battle the ridiculously impassible steps into Tarzan's Treepedal, and find how Tarzan grew in the jungles of the forest. Here you will find areas scavanged from the flotsam of a pirate ship, a noisy entertainment area near the roots of the tree, and even baby Tarzan, intriguing in his crib!

Hey im back again with flash but this time its a starcraft flash. Thats right starcraft. I'd like to thank 0ne_Eye_Blind again for getting me a mic and giving me the idea, Your always a help man. And now your feature presentation..........
Rated 3 / 5 stars
wait, what?
people talk about animation, I didn't see any, someone mentioned a battlecruiser, I didn't see one, what is up with these reviews? however, you don't get a total fail, as you didn't advertise this as anything but a battle report, which it was.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Very welldone,
Very welldone work here from the graphics to the animation which i may add was very smooth and sleek, i love this and thats why i gave a high score, keep up the great work, i am impressed.
Great flash
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Not bad
This wasn't bad, I liked the 3D Battlecruiser Loofah (though it seemed a bit strange when it stopped moving but the engines carried on blazing) and protoss's face, and the planet looked good too. The human characters though weren't too amazingly well drawn, their proportions were all off, etc. The commander's face looked more like a five year old than a military officer. It is so round - if he is supposed to be fat it's not really working, maybe do a google image search for a fat guy's face. Their dialogue though is good, it gives the characters a lot of... character. Also: I don't think the protoss have a language (they don't actually have a mouth to speak with!), they use telepathy instead. And I have to say not a lot really happens, but I assume it's just the introduction to a series.
Rated 1 / 5 stars
... Just lame
Your graphics were infantile, even the 3d, the style has been done a hundred and one times before, the sound wasn't all tha grand, and neither was the humor. But what really pisses me off is that you just had a black screen at the end, I sat their five minutes expecting something else to happen, but nothing did. In all work on your begining and ending, and the stuff in between.
And the moral of the story is dont call yourself Wagner. Dont be an asshole. Show some respect man, be appreciative. And also dont expect something so badly, i know its my fault i didnt put a crappy "The End" finale music soun but its your fault you sat there for 5 minutes. You could have left and gone out, who knows you could have even made a flash in 5 minutes. The point is dont be an asshole about a flash when you have no flash, it doesnt add up does it? Think about that while i urinate on your face.

NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 06/24/14 -- It's the time of year when it heats up and the kids are out of school wondering what to do with themselves all day. It can be difficult resist the temptation to use credit cards to finance costly vacations or to purchase expensive electronics to keep the kids happy and occupied. But it doesn't have to be that way. Fortunately, there are many things to do to enjoy family fun and still save money this summer. MyRatePlan, a leading expert on finance, announced the best ways to save this summer:
The Staycation
For those who have a week or two off this summer, why not take the opportunity to visit your area's local attractions? Saving money doesn't have to equal boredom. Taking a variety of day trips can be an inexpensive alternative to spending large amounts of money on travel and hotels. A little internet research and even the Yellow Pages can give you all kinds of ideas of things to do without having to go very far.
Pack a picnic lunch and spend the day at the lake with friends. With a blanket and a cooler of cold beverages, people can enjoy the local fireworks displays or free concerts in the park. Check out the days and hours of operation of your municipal swimming pool. Although the kids are on summer break, parents can always sneak in educational opportunities by visiting local museums and historic sites. Get outside and enjoy the beautiful weather by taking a bike ride, getting up a backyard game of softball or Frisbee, hitting some tennis balls at the local courts or taking a nature walk. Don't forget to take advantage of the programs offered by public libraries.
Summer is a great time to show the kids how good it can feel to make your hometown a better place to live or to help those less fortunate than themselves. Contact a local civic organization (or county/city government) to learn about volunteer opportunities. Make a family project of collecting cans and bottles for charity, keep the community green by picking up trash, or volunteer at a local animal shelter or food bank. Volunteering is an inexpensive way of bringing families together.
Backyard Barbecues
Ah, the joys of sweet, juicy watermelon and corn on the cob dripping with melted butter. Check out the produce deals at the local farmer's market and make a picnic at a fraction of the cost of restaurant outings. Skewer up summer's bounty of red, green and yellow peppers with mushrooms and onions for healthy and fun kebabs. Everyone loves hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill, but change it up and keep things interesting by grilling fresh salmon steaks, chicken breasts and even baked potatoes wrapped in foil. Baked beans and potato salad, anyone? Pass the ketchup and mustard, please!
Cut Cooling Costs
Home electric bills can reach truly frightening numbers for those who live in an area where the heat and humidity call for running the air conditioning most of the day. Here are a few suggestions to consider for cutting cooling costs this summer:
- Window units - If you have a few small window air conditioning units in strategic areas of your home, you may be able to keep the central air turned off most of the time. Why pay to cool the entire house or apartment when your family has congregated in only one or two rooms?
- Fans - Never underestimate the power of a good old-fashioned stand-up or ceiling fan. You can run a fan or two at a tiny fraction of the cost of air conditioning.
- Sprinklers and garden hoses - Remember how we used to run through sprinklers in the yard and soak each other with the garden hose when we were kids? If you're watering the lawn or washing the car, encourage the kids to take the opportunity to cool off by getting wet and splashy!

By Liz McMillan While DevOps most critically and famously fosters collaboration, communication, and integration through cultural change, culture is more of an output than an input.

The UC Davis Police Were Right to Pepper Spray the Occupy Protesters
You have a First Amendment right to free speech. You do not, however, have a First Amendment right to trespass or set up a hobo camp. This is the problem with the Occupy protesters, well, besides the fact that most of them don't seem to know why they're protesting. They believe the law applies to everybody but them.
They scream at the police, threaten them, flick lit cigarettes at cops, deliberately back into police in riot gear, block traffic, refuse orders to move, and do everything humanly possible to bait the police. Then predictably, when they get what they've been begging for, whether it be a baton to the body or pepper spray to the face, they play the victim. It's like watching people run around in the middle of a busy freeway hoping to be hit by a car so they can claim their First Amendment rights were violated. When the cops go up against this sort of rambunctious mob that's doing everything possible to create a violent clash, your sympathies should always be with the police.
That brings us to UC Davis where the Occupy mob had set up tents and refused to take them down. Then they were asked to move by the police — and they refused. At that point, they sat down and locked arms to keep the police from moving them. All of the protesters knew they were going to be hit with pepper spray and they could have simply gotten up and moved. It was actually safer for everyone involved, particularly the police, to spray the protesters first — than to risk injuring them by trying to slowly pry them apart, while other protesters could get access to the officers' backs. Pepper spraying those protesters in the face was absolutely the right thing to do.
Again, the problem wasn't the police; it was that the protesters thought they should be allowed to break the law with impunity. They learned they were wrong about that. That's a good thing. When people break the law, the police need to be allowed to use as much force as necessary to get everything under control and it's too bad that these police officers, who did exactly the right thing, are being vilified by unethical people for the sake of politics. In actuality, cities across the country could learn a lot from UC Davis. Had the rest of the country forced the Occupy protesters to obey the law from the beginning, including using pepper spray where necessary, it undoubtedly would have led to a lot less vandalism, violence, and women being raped by Occupy protesters.

Due to significant increases in energy prices, the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., will be closed on Mondays and Tuesdays in January and February of 2006.The museum will be open during the normal winter operating hours, Wednesday through Sunday, during those months. The Wednesday through Saturday hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. On Sunday, the museum is open from noon to 4 p.m.The museum's pre-school program will not be affected by the schedule change and will continue to be held on Monday mornings. Museum officials have also decided to close the McBean Gallery for the winter on Dec. 31 to save on energy costs. The gallery is tentatively scheduled to re-open in April."After an extensive analysis of our expenses in the winter, we reached the conclusion that in order to stay within our operating budget it would be necessary to close for the two days," said museum director Peter Hammell. "The spike in energy prices had everything to do with the decision." The exhibit "Peb: The Art of Humor," a career retrospective of the Daily Racing Form caricaturist Pierre Bellocq, will complete its run in the gallery as planned on Dec. 31. The "Golden Memories" exhibit will remain on display in 2006 when the gallery reopens.

Praise for the first edition: "Aberth wears his very considerable and up-to-date scholarship lightly and his study of a series of complex and somber calamites is made remarkably vivid." -- Barrie Dobson, Honorary Professor of History, University of York The later Middle Ages was a period of unparalleled chaos and misery -in the form of war, famine, plague, and death.

Long before the invention of printing, let alone the availability of a daily newspaper, people desired to be informed.

Economic issues - corruption and poverty - were high on the list of protesters' complaints during the Arab Spring and the subsequent uncertainty has worsened the economic position of the Middle East's most populous nation, says Una Galani
May 22, 2012 3:27 by Reuters
The presidential election won't end investors' worries about Egypt. Economic issues – corruption and poverty – were high on the list of protesters' complaints during the Arab Spring and the subsequent uncertainty has worsened the economic position of the Middle East's most populous nation. But the leading candidates in the first round of landmark elections on Wednesday haven't offered many clear economic proposals.
Hardline Islamists candidates have been disqualified from the race. The field of qualified hopefuls is now led by moderate Islamist Abdel Moneim Abol Fotouh, liberal former foreign minister Amr Moussaand the Muslim Brotherhood's official candidate Mohamed Mursi. All three support a market-leaning economy, and promise to stamp out corruption and to reform energy subsidies, which eat up 20 percent of the budget.
Abol Fotouh and Moussa also speak of a more progressive tax system and of increased spending on health and education. Moussa is in favour of borrowing more to kick-start the economy. But it isn't clear how these aspirations will be realised.
There's also strong support for Ahmed Shafiq. The former air force commander, briefly prime minister during the last days of the Mubarak regime, is seen as the army's favourite. He hasn't said much about the economy.
In theory, Egypt could afford higher social spending without adding to a fiscal deficit forecast by the International Monetary Fund at 10 percent of GDP in 2012 if it stamps out deep-rooted corruption and enacts subsidy reforms. The IMF's conditions for aid typically encourage such changes.

About the Manufacturer
In January 1950, Wilbur Berger established Monarch Glass on Rachel Street in Montreal, providing quality custom mirror and glasswork for both retail stores and the home. Understanding that there was more business with glass, Monarch started manufacturing and then diversified to importing mirrors and frames. In 1965 Monarch Glass got the very lucrative contract of manufacturing frames for the Expo and renamed itself Monarch Specialties Inc. During this time, they moved their operations to a larger location to increase their import business, while continuing to use their extensive glass knowledge to manufacture furniture such as glass top tables and TV stands. In 1997 they started importing from Asia offering over 1000 different items of furniture for virtually every room in the home. The addition of their import line has increased the Monarch catalog to the impressive size it is today, featuring bedroom, living room, accent, home office and many more categories.

Their fashion forward designs, attention to quality and on-time customer service make them a value driven leader in the home furnishings industry.Style

Love this storage bench Carole Gilless from Santa Maria CA First, really appreciate all the reviews. Influenced my purchase. This piece is perfect. Arrived quickly. Was a little concerned because the packaging was dented, but there was no damage to the pieces. Went together easily. Looks great under a low window in my dining room. Looks better than the pictures. It was the first piece of furniture I purchased online and I was apprehensive, but no complaints at all. Would recommend without reservation. |

Unique bench Vivian from California A inner piece of the bench came broken. We fixed it. It may have been through delivery.The quailty seems fine.

By Nathan Hoobler May 21, 2009 |
While exploring the Whale last night, we climbed a route between The Thin Line and Esse Curve. Four bolts and felt 5.9+ ish. It doesn't seem to be in the RRCOS climbing book (at least not my first edition). Is this a new route or am I directionally challenged? FWIW, the route was fun. A challenge for me, though probably easy for most. |
By Stewart M. Green May 26, 2009 |
Yep. It's sort of a new route. We put that one up back in January. Unnamed and unrated. Look around for the other new ones. We've been keeping them off the radar for now because there will still be a few more to go up...trying to get a little more adventure at ole Red Rock Canyon. |
By Ryan Sanders From: C Springs May 26, 2009 |
And we appreciate it, Stewart. Our favorite so far is what Tom is calling Outer Reach (to keep the nautical theme). |

Great Post! Very informative and a great read. I saw this site during my browsing and think it may be relevant whales.org.za .Keep up the great posts! |
By Nathan Hoobler Jul 7, 2009 |
I think we might have climbed Outer Reach tonight. It was a touch loose down low, but had some cool moves up a double overlap toward the top. Seven bolts, I believe. Always fun to discover a new route where there wasn't one before. |

We hiked around for 45 minutes looking for this place not realizing we were on the opposite side the climbs are on. Park in the far SE lot and hike up the Red Rock trail for about 10 minutes. The Whale will be on the right shortly after the pond. |
By infiniteforests From: Colorado Springs, CO Aug 25, 2014 |
Most of the climbs around here really benefit from using long slings or a long cordalette for an anchor to reduce rope drag at the top. |

Education: How the system failed a school
It's four years since Hackney Downs school was forced to shut down after years of very public pillorying as `Britain's Worst School'. But its long demise was no simple tale of poor teachers and lack of community support.
The painful demise of the school which was dismissed by tabloid newspapers as that year's "worst school in Britain" and first victim of a government standards hit squad, is now the subject of a new book.
Hackney Downs started life as a prestigious grammar school; celebrity old boys included Michael Caine, Harold Pinter and Steven Berkoff. It went on to become one of the former Inner London Education Authority's star comprehensives in a deeply impoverished area of London. In the early Eighties it was being complimented by inspectors for its humane values and creativity. By 1985 there were rumblings that its academic performance was not good enough. By 1990, according to HMI, it was "at risk" and, although its exam results improved, by the end of 1995 it had only 200 boys in buildings so dilapidated that when it rained heavily the water cascaded down the main staircase.
The school's closure in December 1995 was a prolonged, torrid and very public affair. But among all the schools which have been pilloried for "failing" over the last 10 years, there has never been one for which local councillors, parents, staff, governors and even pupils fought harder. They only lost the battle at the 11th hour at an appeal hearing against the result of a judicial review in the High Court.
Four years down the line, it is still worth looking at the lessons of Hackney Downs for two reasons. Firstly, because so many of those who were involved still feel a burning sense of injustice at what occurred, and secondly, because the lessons do not support the received wisdom on which "school improvement" policies are being based.
The government-appointed Education Association, whose recommend- ation that the school close was finally ratified by the High Court, offered three reasons for its decision: financial mismanagement; the dilapidated state of the buildings - which would take about pounds 3m to put right - and the low standard of education being provided. Conventional wisdom now has it that schools "fail" largely because of the quality of the teaching. Yet two of the reasons for Hackney Downs' demise had nothing to do with the staff in the school when it closed. Financial responsibility for the school's budget passed first to the Hackney local education authority and then to the Education Association, moving from surplus to deficit, more than a year before it closed.
And Hackney Downs' buildings had deteriorated steadily for 10 years before closure as a backlog of repairs was allowed to accumulate until Her Majesty's Inspectors complained that the place had become "squalid".
Hackney was and still is one of the most impoverished boroughs in the UK. Its population is transient, ethnically mixed, burdened with unemployment, poor housing and ill-health. The number of single-parent and refugee families is very high.
The "market" in school places meant that as Hackney Downs declined it received such a high proportion of boys with special needs that it became, in its pupil composition, closer to a special school than even a secondary modern.
Hackney Downs was a grotesque example of the market at its most vicious, making teaching and learning harder with each term. As HMI commented, there were children in the school who were beyond the remit of any normal classroom. The same market affected teacher recruitment and, by the end of its life, it was staffed almost entirely by young teachers in the first few years of their careers. Incompetent? The Education Association certainly thought some were, though the fact that most of the staff have moved on to successful careers elsewhere suggests that they were not so very different from staff in many other London schools. They were certainly inexperienced, as was the management in a school which had four headteachers in its last five years of life.
But its detractors still argue that the inspection reports and the exam results proved that it was in deep trouble educationally. Up to a point, perhaps. Hackney Downs, during its last five years, must have been the most inspected school in the country. Most of the reports were dire but, significantly, they were improving. The last visit by HMI noted progress six months after the Ofsted report which designated the school as "failing". Crucially, two of the three reports of the Ofsted-registered inspectors brought in by the Education Association itself - until now unpublished - suggested that even in its last term some experts thought that the school could be saved.
It was a shaky platform upon which to close a school, pillory teachers and fling parental and community support back in the teeth of a neighbourhood not easily persuaded to support education in any shape or form. And it took no account of the difficult relationship between the school and its local education authority, which had allowed problems, including the unprofessional behaviour of a minority of ethnic-minority staff, to fester over a period of years.
The fact is that turning inner-city schools round is a much harder task than anyone was prepared to admit back in 1995. The market system does create sink schools which need not just inspection but significant investment and support over a long period if they are to improve. The lack of success reported by Ofsted this year at the flagship Phoenix School in Hammersmith underlines the point. Examination success at Phoenix is still lower than Hackney Downs was achieving in its darkest days.
"Failing" schools also need what Hackney Downs never got: competent and effective support from a well-run local authority and a physical environment in which staff and students can feel safe and valued. Hackney council, which is now publicly humiliated itself for its incompetence, had already spent a lot of money "turning around" another of its failing schools. In the end one is forced to the conclusion that Hackney Downs was simply a burden too far for an inefficient council, cash-starved by the Conservative government and often in political turmoil.
By the time the Education Association took over responsibility, the bill for reconstruction had grown too large for anyone to meet. That may or may not be a legitimate reason to disrupt children's education and risk blighting teachers' careers, but it is not what the term "failing school" is meant to imply. A much better case can be made for concluding that Hackney Downs, its staff and its pupils, were themselves seriously failed.

Baseball Primer Newsblog — The Best News Links from the Baseball Newsstand Sunday, October 28, 2012San Francisco Giants, unlike the New York Yankees, winning with substance over style - NYPOST8-3, 2-0, 2-0. Yes, the Yankees are sitting home watching the Series and the Giants are up three games in the World Series because Jeter is the only player on the Yankees who will give himself up and move a guy from second to third.

Downtown Bookie Posted: October 28, 2012 at 08:14 PM (#4286274)"The teams that are playing the best win,'' Jeter has said often. Hard to argue with that. "The Yankees are more concerned with major stars without looking at guys who go the other way,'' the scout said. "Who goes the other way for the Yankees other than Jeter? Who gives themselves up moving a guy from second to third? Which explains why the Yankees finished in last place and failed to make the playoffs. Oh, wait.... DB
I am fairly confident that the Giants will miss the playoffs again sooner than the Yankees.
3. Voros McCracken of Pinkus
Posted: October 28, 2012 at 10:15 PM (#4286590)then again, they do play in a craptacular division. (though I guess it helps that they get fewer free wins from the Astros going foward) Who goes the other way for the Yankees other than Jeter? The Yankees made a mistake by not trading for an outfielder who is famous for going the other way. If only they had pulled that trigger. Who goes the other way for the Yankees other than Jeter? On a more serious note, I'm fairly sure that Cano / Ichiro / Gardner goes the other way above the average of MLB hitters. You must be Registered and Logged In to post comments. |

United Hatzalah program honors our survivors, war veterans with specialized medical care
The Auschwitz Jewish Center launched a fundraising campaign to rescue the house of the last Jewish resident of Oswiecim, the Polish town where the Auschwitz concentration camp was built.
The center plans to transform the home of Szymon Kluger into a cafe that also will serve as a meeting place for local residents and visitors.
As part of its fundraising, the center launched a Kickstarter campaign on Monday to coincide with Yom HaShoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Before World War II, Oswiecim had a majority Jewish population.
Kluger died in 2000, the year the Auschwitz Jewish Center was opened. His house was next to the center, which includes a restored synagogue, a museum and educational facilities.
"According to the recent expert inspection, the retaining wall, which stabilizes our synagogue, is in danger of landslide due to extreme erosion," said the center's director, Tomasz Kuncewicz. "Without support for this badly needed renovation, we could lose the Kluger House and the synagogue."
Kuncewicz said the center will establish a vegetarian cafe called Oshpitzin — the Yiddish name for Oswiecim — in the Kluger house that will serve as "a place of intercultural dialogue for residents and guests from all over the world."
"We want to respect the town's heritage by offering local products and promoting local artists in Cafe Oshpitzin. By reinforcing the Kluger house and its retaining wall, the synagogue's future will also be secured, so that visitors to Auschwitz can continue to have a Jewish haven for reflection in the town."

Trucking-tech team-up: XRS bought by Omnitracs for $178M
- Mark Reilly
- Managing Editor- Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn | Google+
XRS Corp., which makes makes fleet-management software for trucking companies, is being acquired by Omnitracs, another trucking-technology provider.
Omnitracs will pay a hefty premium for Eden Prairie-based XRS — $178 million, or $5.60 per share. That's nearly twice the market value of XRS based on last week's closing stock price of $3.02.
The Dallas Business Journal has a post on the deal and what it means for Omnitracs, formerly a unit of mobile-tech company Qualcomm. It bought fleet-management software firm Roadnet Technologies last winter.
The Star Tribune, meanwhile, has a piece on how XRS has evolved in recent years under CEO Jay Coughlan, who took over in 2006 when it was still called Xata Corp. He remolded it from a hardware-based business into one built around mobile apps.
Mark Reilly manages daily and weekly coverage at the Business Journal newsroom.

The Ubuntu Code of Conduct : What We Stand For
A conversation that I had yesterday has reminded me of the Ubuntu Code of Conduct and what we try to stand for as an Ubuntu community. Any Ubuntu Member (official) is required to sign this article before they can be approved for membership and it should be a reminder of the ideals we're trying to live by.
The community (those not yet official members) should try to live by this standard as well. For those unfamiliar with the Code of Conduct I wanted to share it here.
- Be considerate. Your work will be used by other people, and you in turn will depend on the work of others. Any decision you take will affect users and colleagues, and we expect you to take those consequences into account when making decisions.
- Be respectful.

Lee's bill would cut, cap, balance
With few firm offers in play for increasing the federal debt ceiling in advance of the Aug. 2 deadline, Sen. Mike Lee opted Thursday to lead out by introducing the Cut, Cap and Balance Act of 2011.
"There has been a surprising and somewhat disturbing absence of serious proposals on the table (for raising the debt limit)," the Utah Republican said. "That is troubling to me on a number of levels — most noticeably what happened a few months ago when we were going through a series of continuing resolutions as we neared what almost became a government shutdown. We don't want that same sort of thing to happen."
The Cut, Cap and Balance Act is like the mirror-image twin brother of the Cut, Cap and Balance Pledge that Lee and Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, endorsed last month. The pledge commits signees against raising the debt limit unless and until Congress passes immediate spending cuts, statutory spending caps and a balanced budget amendment; the new act Lee introduced Thursday takes the affirmative side of the issue and promises to raise the federal debt ceiling once its three prongs of cut-cap-balance are satisfied.
"I expect it to get a lot of support among Republicans in both houses of Congress," Lee said. "I'm also hopeful that we'll get a number of Democrats signing on with us. So far we have not had proposals that have taken off (in Congress)."
Hatch is one of 17 Republican senators co-sponsoring Lee's Cut, Cap and Balance Act.
"I think this is a great idea, a step in the right direction," Hatch told the Deseret News. "There will probably be at least two or three versions (of Republican bills on this issue), and I suspect that Sen. Mitch McConnell's will be the one that will advance. Even so, I commend Sen. Lee for coming up with his version of this. … I suspect that we're going to be unified to try and make it very clear that we've got to have real spending reductions and no tax increases or the debt ceiling's not going to be lifted."
The group Pass the Balanced Budget Amendment is holding a rally Friday in downtown Salt Lake City to promote the Cut, Cap and Balance Pledge. The event begins at 2 p.m. at Washington Square, across the street from Matheson Courthouse.
"We want to bring people out, have them sign the pledge and make sure they get behind it," said state Rep. Carl Wimmer, R-Herriman. "We don't have a lot of time. Our federal leaders are really playing chicken with the clock, and we are on the precipice of financial disaster."

Is it possible to set notifications to a lower priority? What I mean is, at the end of a mission and the final pop-up appears, you also get the flood of green notification text, but it floats over the pop-up, making it extremely hard to read until the floaters shift off-screen. It's only a few seconds, but so much text on the screen at once is kind of hard on the eyes. I think setting it so notification text, by default, displays under pop-ups would help--since notification text appears in the chat window anyway.
Just a suggestion. Thoughts? |

A girl in a frog kigurumi. I was thinking of making it a penguin first (because penguins are awesome) but that idea has to be saved for another time. Made in Sai and Photoshop.

Would've expected a gender-swapped Mario but the girl in this pciture is making the old frog suit modern and work anyhow
Woah! How beautiful and awesome ! BTW can I borrow it as Steam picture? I'll write down the artist at profile.
You really should make that penguin suit too, the concept is lovely and it looks beautiful! Cute
