Say hello

[1cowabunga]

This little guy just came out of nowhere to say hi. What is his name? Where is he from? What kind of stories can you all come up with about him? (He's sorry he wasn't sure what forum to visit) :D

Hi Nobby!

Nobby used to be a pencil topper but his owner gave him away because he kept giving them the eye!

:D

[down2earth2]

I don't know who he is, or where he's from, but I think we should introduce him to this little guy. :eek2:

[swillox]

Switch his eyes, the one nearest what he's looking at MUST :D be larger ;)

call him Switch. ho, and don't forget to switch his eyes over and over if you make a cartoon.

[1cowabunga]

LOL!!! That's hillarious dave. He does look like he'd belong on a pencil.

:D and great idea swillox. If I knew how to use flash, a cartoon would be a fun project for this.

I love his eyes just the way they are, I think he has great character...well done Sam. Nobby, as Dave suggested seems to fit quite well I think.

This may sound a bit hokey, but maybe your little guy is saying goodbye as he is about to travel to another planet for what he thinks will be the job of a lifetime. He spends his entire savings for a one way ticket.

Once he arrives he would find that everyone else is very different looking than he is. Of course he was considered quite handsome at home, and now being so different looking he is considered quite grotesque and ugly by the locals. He becomes sad and wonders if this was maybe the biggest mistake he has ever made.

Before he loses hope of finding happiness in his new surroundings he meets a girl of the local race of beings that is also is considered ugly by the locals. Her name is Nimra. She realizes he is a bit weird looking by local standards but judges him only by what she sees on the inside, a genuine, caring and thoughtful person.

As they get to know each other instead of seeing each other as different looking (and maybe a bit weird looking) they both begin to view the other as extremely beautiful.

Of course Nobby and Nimra would fall in love and live happily ever after. :)

Great story, burndog...but where's the picture of Nimra? :D

[Dave]

You know it'll all end in tears Burndog! LOL

(You're as mad as me!) :eek2:

[1cowabunga]

Hahaha!! Very creative story burndog. Hopefully Nimra will drop by to see us sometime too. :D

This is just a most creative and divine image! I just adore a great, original image, such as this one!! Burndog's story line is priceless! I can see it all unfolding for this little man. Kudos to you! No critic needed (in my opinion)!

Keep up the imaginative work!!!!

Nimra decided to take a break from ironing Nobby's ties, so she dropped by to meet the PA gang. She is a little shy, doesn't really like meeting new people, but seems to have a strange attraction to dave's avatar.

[Dave]

I think she's more shocked thna anything! LOL

No pencils up her a..!
