that's very cool, epsecially with the scrollbar. it's like two, two, two illustrations in one. (vintage tv commercial reference). Great Job!

I thought the old man was in trouble at first. The scroll is awesome! And I love the one pigeon with his head turned to the gingerbread man. Very clever.

Awesome concept. Great colors. And that's the way the cookie crumbles. :D

Wow this was funny even before I saw the "Mr. Bill"-like gingerbread man. The scroll is a wonderful tool for storytelling. I've never used PSP....looks like a cool program.

Demosthenes... Apparently I'm vintage now, as well. I knew exactly what the reference was. :-) Ah, good 'ol Certs.

Amy... I had this nagging feeling that he looked like someone, but I just thought it was the gingerbread man from Shrek I was thinking of; You're dead-on, he does have an unmistakable "Mr. Bill" look about him.

Absolutely brilliant!

ROFL. oh nooooooooo.

well done! love the pigeons!

This would be funny enough if you only saw the initial view. Old guy is out of feed--he's in trouble. But, it is hilarious when you scroll over. Great idea, wonderful execution. I really like everything about this. I think you did more than just beat me by five minutes ;-)

(in a falsetto voice) "Not my gumdrop buttons!!!

WAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA!! Waaay too funny. The one pigeon seeing Mr. Ginger Bread coming...........classic! Great great job!

flossy-p said...

HAHAHA Clever! I love that it's not until you scroll that you really notice the pigion looking the other way.

At least the pigions may be a little more skitish than a flock of seaguls. fingers crossed.

...and the old man was found dead his trachea filled with feathers.... ok maybe i'm having a violent day.

Bearuh said...

ok that is just way too funny... how did you do the scrollbar thingy...

anthony said...

man this could not be any better.
i laughed when i saw the first part and totally cracked up when i saw the second.

Amy beat me to the "oh, no" Mr. Bill connection with the gingerbread dude. I, too, almost missed the scroll bar... I think it was noticing the upper right pigeon looking off toward something else... trouble for sure for that sweet jogger. Of course, I'm no lover of pigeons, and they spell trouble for my eaves, rain gutters, etc. Wonderfully drawn... especially like the pigeon-faces and the old park bench dude.
