Ren And Stimpy Doorbell
A picture says 1,000 words, so don’t let me keep you. However I am disturbed by the notion that there is a generation of people out there who are not familiar with Ren and Stimpy. Heck, even Invader Zim is losing a foothold in today’s pop culture zeitgeist. Kids these days and their Adventure Time.

Wile E. Coyote Blueprint Posters Now Available
You can buy a poster of this image here. You can find wallpapers here.
As you can see I updated the art substantially since I released the wallpaper this past spring. I missed a few details, the largest being the whole box and its contents were tilted.

Another mistake I made in the original wallpaper was placing a pile of birdseed rather than an ‘X’. I must have been thinking of another failed Wile E. Coyote plan.
For both I would like to add a grid to the background, but these are how they appeared in the cartoon.

Kool-Aid Sports Bottle
Here’s a fun design that adds the Kool-Aid Man to your typical sports bottle. He would be perched at the top part of the bottle, and would be translucent so you can see your beverage.
I don’t know if people would use it for actual Kool-Aid, but I think it would appeal to nostalgia buffs on the go.

Spongebob Squarepants Alarm Clock
Apparently there is a whole armada of Spongebob Squarepants alarm clocks, but none of them are a replica of the one used by Spongebob himself on the show; and I’m really surprised by that. Statistically speaking there are “morning people” who want to emulate the sponge’s wake-up routine.
The only reason I can think of as to why this doesn’t exist yet, is that it would be too expensive to have a 3-foot tall foghorn alarm clock parked by your bed. That said it could be smaller (maybe 8 - 12 inches tall) which you could call “life size”, given how small the characters are in relation to us humans.
It must be equipped with the option for the radio or other beeping sounds for the alarm sound; a horn blaring in the morning isn’t for everyone. The face could also be backlit, it has that eye-pleasing aqua color in the show.
If you like this check out the Spongebob lamp.

Pinky And The Brain Flag Wallpaper
Here are some wallpapers depicting the official flag of Brain from Pinky and the Brain. At least, that’s what I remember it looking like from memory - can’t find any online reference. If anyone has a screen capture of this flag, please send it to me.
If I recall correctly, this is a flag Brain had used in one of his many schemes for world domination. And if I am wrong, it probably would’ve looked like this anyways. Just a name and portrait, the mark of a narcissist. All hail Brain.
Didn’t set out to do wallpapers, this was for a desktop flag idea. I will post that eventually.
EDIT: updated the images so they aren’t as noisy as the top image
In the meantime one giant widescreen 2560×1600 image, a large 1600×1200 standard-def image, and an iPhone 960×640 image. Click to enlarge:
I really need to grab the DVDs of this show pronto. It featured, among other things, my all-time favorite sound effect: whenever Pinky or Brain got hit (or belted each other), the sound effect was like two phone books being slammed together (or one being slammed closed). Hilarious Foley work.

If I Had A Lawn I’d Rent It Out To Bugs Bunny
If I did have a lawn of any kind, I’d set this up. None of that Gnome or Flamingo business! This lawn ornament idea will give neighbors the impression that a certain silly wabbit has taken up residence on your property. For those who do have a lawn of some kind, they could probably get all this at Home Depot today. The mailbox, decal letters, and a wooden post.
Ideally it would be a smaller mailbox, I just used this size so you can see it in the picture! As for the hole, I recommend burying two small stacked black potting plants, so you can remove the top-most one and empty it if need be. A round black stone could also do the trick. I’d also make the mailbox removable for easier mowing. If you want to mess with the mailman once in awhile you could leave half-eaten carrots strewn about near the hole.
Sorry for all the Looney Tunes posts as of late. I guess when I work on one idea featuring LT, they all sort of creep into my head.

Pepé Le Pew Fragrance Bottle
I mentioned this in the earlier Penelopé Pussycat post, but I’ve been meaning to use Pepé for a long time. It seems fitting he should be placed on a fragrance bottle of some sort. Read the rest of this entry
