Yes, roaches. I want to test the creativity and skills of the players and see if they can make roaches beautiful

This IS starting to sound scary!

Pretty roaches...well, if I can do that, I can pretty much do anything...I think! Wonder what THAT would look like on my resume!

Roaches!?!

As long as they're not crawling all around my desk, I'm okay. Eck!

Welcome sir2u! You're gonna have a blast with ArtTag! And what an initiation subject!

I'm in too! Are these genetically modified roaches? Kinder and gentler? Heh heh, lets find out!

Yep, welcome sir2u. I started participating here for Art Tag two tags ago. They are great fun. You never know where the muse will wander!

Sir2u,

Welcome aboard! You are going to enjoy Art Tag! The main key is to be sure to log on to this site at least once a day if not more to check your mail once Art Tag starts. When it is your turn you will get a PM from me with the FTP site address, username and password and brief instructions on what to do. Then just try to follow the theme created and remember not to delete or cover up others work. It's a pretty interesting game, especially once the images are posted and you get to see how it changed from person to person.

ENJOY!

~T

Well you never know...whoever gets chosen to be the first player will set the tone. This one may turn out to be very entertaining!

Jennifer,

I signed up and haven't had my opportunity yet. I was available the last three days but no image. I've got to be away from the computer for about 4 hours this morning so no doubt the clarion call of Art Tag imaging will come then.

I share your anxious anticipation!

Welles & Jeanie,

I'm not cracking any whips.... I just thought that this one was so hysterical with roaches as the subject matter!

Take your time and have fun! That's what counts!

Okay, who did what? I added the traffic jam, skid marks, helicopter and the two text overlays "Traffic - I-80 @ Main St." & "WRPD•4 - Warped News 4 Warped People."

I LOVE how this turned out!!!
This has got to be one of the funniest art tags yet!

Ho Ho! It was amazing how the idea just seemed to keep developing in one direction without any departures. Congratulations everyone!

When I heard roaches were to be the subject matter I immediately got out a drawing of a roach and turned it into a jeweled mutant in about 15 minutes, just in case it would come in handy. Then when I saw the actual image, it was so well defined that I could only embellish in the direction so clearly defined... crash landed aliens and a TV report.

Just for fun, though, here's my jeweled mutant cockroach.

To answer Jennifer's inquiry, I was last and added the *Flash 4* and the two thought balloons. Bugs Yuck!

This turned out great - very creative group!

I added the clouds in the sky and the "glow" around the roaches - also darkened the image to match the clouds in the sky and give everything a more ominous look.

I added the dirt under and around the roach motel.

I was very please to see how this theme progressed so nicely from person to person...getting stronger with each new addition! Now that's how I like to see a round run!!!

P.S.

Welles I like your mutant cockroach too.
