It doesn’t look like anyone has been contacted yet. Perhaps they are waiting till after the Holidays to contact people. I had a conversation with someone here at MC and we both came to the conclusion that those that are contacted would do best for themselves to not mention it on MC...

Check out the link below for the full story and the picture of the four new Muppets for Sesame India. They are really cute. http://www.indiantelevision.com/headlines/y2k5/dec/dec104.htm

Hi Ravagefrackle, your quote above reminds me of an Italian word I learned not to long ago: Sprezzatura It means; "A difficult act done so skillfully as to make it appear easy -or- the art of concealing art."

To make an animated avatar you need a program that can create animated GIF's. But for some unknown reason, Muppet Central stopped accepting animated Avatars. Old ones still work. Try to post a new one and it won't take. Although Beauregard did post an animated one very recently and it took...

My best to Bear and Barry with this project!:)

Dude! It's the Internet!! Regardless of the cause you can't trust the numbers or the names to be real!! Why? Because it's the Internet! Where everything can be falsified. Regardless of whatever cause the petition might be for, it's hard to take an Internet petition seriously when hundreds of...

Hi Wes, Yes, I found the recent auditions inspiring and hopeful of good things to come. If anything it was a good learning experince. I haven't created any puppets from it, but I did get an idea for a new puppet personality that I plan to use on a future puppet. Glad to hear of your new...

STILL MOVIN' RIGHT ALONG Though creator Jim Henson passed on some time ago, his creations, the Muppets, live on. The Museum of Television & Radio, 25 W. 52 St. in NYC, is "Celebrating Fifty Years of Jim Henson" by presenting a two-month retrospective of specials featuring Kermit and the gang...

Is it connect the dots?:)

The previous 'Fake Muppet' topic I mentioned was only about just that, 'Fake Muppet.' (As some in this group have coined this phrase.) Wasn't even getting into the issue of save the Muppets, that's a separate issue. So it seems for a Puppeteer to not be considered a 'Fake Muppet' (by those...

Very well put! You move to the head of the class.:)

"Fake Muppet" I'd like to address the term used here once in a while; 'Fake Muppet'. While this hasn't happened but what if some 19-year old from Iowa came around and did a spot-on perfect Elmo (for example), would he be considered a 'Fake Muppet'? Not to me. If someone does an...

The truth is no one has been recast nor will they be from these current auditions. That's not what it's about. Victor Yerrid and Drew Massey who are performing Statler and Waldorf on movies.com where hired for those roles prior to the recent auditions. Steve Whitmire and Dave Goelz did not...

Excellent point. While I am not totally against the save the puppeteer campaign, (which is what it really is) I do wish that those that support it would question why Sesame Workshop has been intentionally left off the contact list of people to complain to since Sesame was there also looking to...

I don't think so. The animated Kermit stamp I used last month which worked fine on MC, now won't accept it.

Wow! That is interesting! I just made the one I wanted to upload smaller (60 pixels by 60 pixels at 4 KB) and still wouldn't animate. Oh well, I'm glad to know your's works.:)

Yep, something must have changed. Even the animated GIF I had on MC last month won't animate anymore. Beauregard be alert if you want to change yours in the future, it might not work again unless this is corrected. I had made a nice new Christmas one I had wanted to upload.
