I like how the blurred sun works on all the different colours, changing the image. And I had fun drawing a silly pun here (yes, the words came first with this one). Dinosaurs are always cool, of course, and so I was able to combine this with a relaxed summer image and the sense of danger and adventure. I even got a TBA for it (yes I am aware this doesn't mean anything. And I still dream that maybe, one day, somebody, somewhere, might like it enough to buy one.
Anyway, I like all of them in a way.

I'd love to see my bat guinea pig featured on Futurama :-) It just fits perfectly to these crazy mutants and aliens.

Maybe it could be a dark opponent to nibbler, or maybe it could magically help me to expand this answer to 100 words, because actually this is all I can say about the topic and I am only at 64 words now. I might add that I am not an expert as I don't ever watch TV (did I mention I am a deer?), but I will not give up and answer this question in 100 words.

How did you find zazzle - and what kept you going with it? *
I had a few drawings and wanted to make postcards, so I searched and found zazzle. Never had heard of it before.
Being a deer it was difficult to find someone who would not print on leaves (they don't last). Today, postcards are only a small part of what I create here with all the different products available.

My personal favorite is this Monster Kingpin Jailed T-shirt, though it's not selling nearly as much as the cute Dazzled Bug. Monster Kingpin Jailed shirt is a black male T-shirt with a grinning blue monster with sharp teeth looking from behind jail bars. It's a dark and at the same time funny design.
I love cute designs and I love wicked designs, that's why I make both. Moreover, I love monsters with a personality and I love what the design symbolizes - I have a monster inside, but I keep it jailed, it's not coming out... well, hopefully it's not... :)

It's a blue paper textured mousepad with a happy singing robot which sings about the times when robots ruled the universe. It has a slightly vintage look.
The show I would like it to appear on would be Big Bang Theory, which I am a keen fan of. It's a show about four nerd scientists who happen to be friends. Leonard (one of the main characters) is often pictured playing, chatting, looking at science data and so on on his laptop and I think this mousepad would look really great there. I think it suits the geeky/nerdy style of the show.

How did you find zazzle - and what kept you going with it? *
It's been long ago and I don't remember well but I think it was through a link from Deviantart's forums. I love the freedom Zazzle gives me and it's really cool to see my designs as they will look on the final products. I have two wonderful children at home and Zazzle is a great way to earn money while taking proper care of them. I've found so many amazing designers and products that my wish list has become huge. When I see a talented designer, a wonderful product, it's a pleasure, I get happier.
