I look forward to anything Vic does.

Except those mudpies--the gravel is a bit coarse.

Jim Henson – The Legend

Oh cool, thanks! I hadn't noticed! Yay! I'd like to thank all of you for your interest and keeping these visuals alive and well!

Yesterday, my good friend Barry Lee started a very touching thread about his time here at MC and the influence the Muppets had on him, and if you haven't read it already, I strongly suggest you do. You can read it here. Like Barry, and many if not all of you here, Jim had a profound impact on my life as well. In all honesty, if Jim hadn't been a part of my life, I wouldn't be in this line of work. Recently I was asked to write a bio for myself for a potential radio interview about a book I illustrated. You can bet your sweet bippy I noted Jim as my main (if not only) influence in design and art. So today I use what few skills I have in Photoshop, in comparrison to all the other designers of the world, to dedicate this week's visual to the man who literally helped shape my life. My hero: The late great Jim Henson.

*Special Note - This visual is sized to 1024×768 for the perfect fit for your computer desktop!

Muppet Central Morsels
• Jim's image appears seven times in this visual.
• If you're having trouble finding the seventh image, take a step back from your computer screen and focus on the rainbow colored dots.
• Of the almost fifty visuals I've created, this one is my wife's personal favorite.​

*salutes* Vic my friend, you've done it again. Marvelous, simply marvelous. It's so gorgeous, every single one of those pictures of Jim are divine, and the perfect choice for the Visual. Then Jim... In the rainbow... I suppose he found his Rainbow Connection now... But, he's not in all of the rainbow... He's in the green Vic, he's in the green. Now he knows that it can be easy bein' green, eh? My favorite part is the Jim in the vanilla colored cut out, gorgeous, then the sketch of him in the top right corner, amazing. It's AWESOME Vic, and makes a splendid computer background. Great job Vic!! :excited:
