Artwork Meme Done

Matt Arnold

October 11, 2006

I've finished the artworks for the first five people to respond to the LJ Art Meme. If anyone else wants one, you can ask, but I make no guarantees. And it helps if you make a request for something, even if it's vague. I'll do it if I like it. How many of you actually fulfilled your promise to make art for this meme?

Heh. I haven't fulfilled mine, but that's a "yet", not a "never".

Ditto to that.

Wait a second. I'm confused (although this happens quite frequently). I thought our part of the meme was to put whatever artwork you created on our lj. I think I missed something. What exactly do we need to do to fulfill our part of the meme?

Oh, and I like my custom artwork...but what is it?

It is Linux-tan! With a KDE gear for a mohawk and a Gnome footprint emblazoned on his chest, this half penguin, half gnu is an anime-style personification of all things open source. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Linuxtan-orig.jpg

I just realized I totally forgot to add his mighty horns and beard of a gnu.

Yes, I was curious if that footprint was for gnome, but you can never tell. Very cool. Now that I know what it is, I like it even better!

Copy the text in the LJ entry, promising to do art for the first 5 who ask.

I did mine for the meme, but only had 3 requests. Two female and one male. Of course, I am not at all artistic, but I did beadwork for them. :)

I have been sorely tempted to do this, and then make the little coaster (i.e. pads to hold one's beverage) variants I have found on knitting and crocheting sites. Would that be welcome? I don't know. :-)

This reminds me of college. Good memories of it anyway. :) You are so very talented. Do me, too!!!

I like mine. It's the movement diagram for a Jester from Space Chess, right? (I had to look it up. I knew it was something like a Knight, but I didn't remember the exact name.) Very nice. Thanks, Matt. I haven't done any artwork for anyone because no one has asked me for any, not even (sob) my wife. Maybe they think this whole phenomenon is a Memetic Hazard.
