Wow. You guys managed to set the all-time record for most comments in one post on that last one. Looks like my site is soaked in sexual inuendo, and I did not even know it! In the next few weeks, I will work on a replacement, decidedly non-spermy graphic to punctuate the end of that horizontal rope divider at the top of each page. Everyone weighed in with some absolutely hilarious pieces of text, including the first ever link posted to the comments, by Richard Roche: an awesome graphic depicting the red end caps to be ovaries in addition to other graphical illustrations. Incidentally, this was strikingly similar to another image used by Mykala to illustrate a similar point.
Other topics of discussion included (but were not limited to) Pandora’s Box, America, sacred sperm, sperm death, insanity, sperm home, freak getting on, symbolism, and on and on. Furthermore, please welcome Mr. Ryan Markoe to the commenting table, and ponder Justin’s final comment as well. I give everyone a hearty pat on the back - perhaps we should all have a monthly discussion group here. Let me know, I’d be open to it.
As for me? Yeah, I agree, they do look like sperm. Was it subconscious? Was it conscious and I am not telling?
Gizoogle tumbledry - Tumbledry gets jiggy. Consider this excerpt: “Nevertheless, ta continue in tha current brotha vein, I wizzle ta pizzy this note frizzay mah girlfriend cuz I put gangsta rap on tha map.”
I have said very little about this new design (it was whipped up in a frenzy of about one month), but I have received very positive and constructive opinions on it. It was a decently large pile of work and I have a few small things left to tweak (namely, making QuickMail scroll better) until I rest for an extended time from designing anything online. Nevertheless, to continue in the current feedback-from-readers vein, I wish to post this note from my girlfriend.
This is an invitation to all Tumbledry viewers who wish to participate. I believe our minds are being poisoned by subliminally sexual graphics displayed on tumbledry.org’s frontpage, and I would like to encourage all those viewing the page in its redesigned glory to locate and describe the graphics that I feel may be depicting sexually explicit material (i.e. there are two spermy-looking graphics near the top of this redesigned frontpage). It took me nearly fifteen minutes to explain to Mr. Micek what exactly it was that resembled sperm, and I feel that the innuendo is very blatant. I am asking for opinions on the matter, and I expect participation from the masses as far as this subject is concerned. Do it for the children, people. The morality of our country depends upon your actions.
Thank you,
Mykala
I will politely side-step out of the spotlight and sit by to watch the comments unfold without me. So, I look forward to reading whatever discussion takes place, and I hope all avoid unnecessary visual trauma.
