    Thanks so much!  Isn't it deliciously creepy? Evil Grin  This is the end of the spotlight on The Headless Horseman, so we'll have a new, autumn-themed banner tomorrow.

    Is the "Graphics from" info too blurry to read?  I can fix that... Smile

    I had no trouble, but I'm one of those people who only needs to see part of a word to know what it is - also very helpful talent when applied to HOs!

    A little off-topic here, but it DOES relate to my banners... just not here! Laugh

    You may or may not know that I'm an admin at The Diving Bell Adventure Pub.  I'm not full-time staff, but I AM in charge of the banners.  They don't like things too cutesy over there, so I came up with this for the upcoming holiday:

    Oh that is so cool!!!! you are so creative! I wish I had your flair with images - and words. I have always envied artists and as a kid used to believe that once computers 'grew up' a little they'd let me create wonderful pictures too. And they can let me do lots of fun stuff and make pretty wallpapers - but I don't have your talent for originality. And it turns out, that is the thing you still can't get a computer to do!  Cry

    I think your banners are wonderful - here and at The Pub.  I didn't realize we didn't like things too cutesy over there!  LOL  I love everything - that's why I am not in charge!!   Smile

    Too cutesy, and she's not a fan, so nothing nauseatingly sweet or cute banner-wise at the Pub.  The queen has spoken! Love Your Banner! Worthy That's OK, I have my likes and dislikes, too, and when I want cute, I'll add it here! Belly laugh

    I actually noticed the new banner.   Have you played the game?  It is either in my "to buy"
    list---just cannot remember which game site its on--or I already own it.      Belly laugh

    Yes, but I've not finished it!  I must do that!  Machinairum is by Amanita Design.

    I'm featuring them right now, so I just copied this paragraph from that thread:

    Amanita makes wonderfully quirky point-and-click puzzle adventures, and some of them are FREE to play on their site!  Games such as Samorost 1, Rocketman, Questionaut, The Quest for the Rest, and Osada can all be played online!  They have flash-demos of their other games, too.  They're free, you play online, and no DRM at all.

    SO, the game thread is HERE, but here's a listing of the places where Machinarium can be purchased, so that you don't have to follow the link Elk grin

    Amanita (find wallpapers here, too!)
    GamersGate
    GOG
    Steam

    If you own it, I'm guessing you would have gone for GOG back when they had it on sale.

    If you DON'T own it, you can demo it online at Amanita!

    I did promise my creepiest banner would be up when Bad Omen was finally released, and I think this one is it!  Carrie

    It certainly is! And young Carrie there is the spitting image of 'scary girl' in the True Fear/Bad Omen game!

    For a theme, have to say DRAGONS   Happy bounce 


    Or for a game, how about one of the Puppetshow games?  Love all those creepy puppets, and the evil Felica with her Spiderdroid.   Evil Grin  Evil Grin

    I have some banners that I never finished that would suit perfectly for you, volnole Sunny

    In the meantime, some creepy puppets (though not from PuppetShow) for Frodo.
