Welcome back Big D. How's work been treatin' ya? Good I hope.
Can't wait to hear what you've been up to.
Work consumes most of my time,
too much possibly, but I'm aggresively trying to advance and that possibility has made itself clear, so it's now in the hands of HR and God, so hopefully within a few months I'll be a made man. In the meantime, my wife and I are also in the process of trying to move closer to work. Toss in a ton of freelance and personal projects and you get a stressed out Romano who needed some time away from MC.
However, in the mean time I've been toolin' around with the ol' Photoshop and inadvertantly creating new Muppet stuff, so by November I plan on having a pretty hefty arsenal to share.

Thanks so much Vic! By the way, do you still plan to do that muppet babies project you talked about a while back?
Plan? Yes. Finish? Undecided. Understand that the photomanipulated visuals you see are relatively quick and easy for me to create, where as illustrated work (
such as the Muppet Baby one) take more time, effort, planning and concentration. So I'd like to, I just wouldn't hold your breath. But your interest gives me real initiative and eagerness to please, so I'll do what I can. I can also promise some fun new stuff coming out later this year.

Vic, are you still planning to do that "Muppet Central Show 2" thing again? Because if so, I need you to PM me again...
I think so, but it's hard to say. Lemme' give you a little perspective: The MC Show was one of my favorite visuals, both to do and see. I personally thought it was a great sign of the sense of community and friendship we share here at MC. However, the second one didn't necesarily generate the cooperation I'd hoped for. Yes; people seemed generally interested, and yes; I share your frustration with projects like T*K*O* that are great and fun things that don't always get the response that you want (
possibly because of the overwhelming amount of great fan-fics we have here). My problem was that many people said they wanted to participate, but not many people followed through with it.
I am genuinely thrilled with the response that the visuals return is generating, so we'll have to wait and see if The Muppet Central Show 2 becomes a reality.
Like all things, there has to be somewhat of an interest in those things to give them life. When I started this thread, I was lucky if the next visual appeared four posts after the last. Now I can post a teaser and generate almost two pages of posts and that's very rewarding and let's me know that I'm lucky enough to have such great friends as an audience, thusly making me aware that I need to produce some quality stuff! I know it seems like I'm making mountains outta' mole hills here, but I do take the work I do very seriously, so thanks for your very kind words, they mean a lot to me!!!
EDIT: Yipes! Long post!
