Description Too many people complained that in the original - [link] - it was difficult to tell what the image was. It was clear to me, but i'm the artist. But even if not, I can't really see how anyone couldn't see.
Anyways, it made me sad because it is my absolute favorite out of all the signs. It has the best pose, the best hair, the best "sass" ...

So, today while just answering comments and stuff i came back to it, and thought, "What if i added some figure lines in Paint?"

This should make it clearer.

I was originally just going to add the face curve, but then the rest of it looked ... wrong ... empty. So i added the rest as it would be. But i am not sure i'm happy with the way i did the pubic hair ... but it has to be there otherwise it would look wrong - the belly's too high to cover it...

Except curves refers to the hip-to-waist ratio, not a polite way of saying you are fat. Otherwise fat men could have curves. No you don't have to be skinny to have curves either. You have to have curves to have curves! 7:10 ratio is ideal. Oh and this isn't abuse/trolling, it's a critique and informative. Just because you don't agree with the truth doesn't mean it's trolling. What I said is the same thing as you posting this image.

I knew what the first one was but I do like this one better. I have to tell you I have a bumper sticker that reads "Caution, I brake for Curves Ahead". Not really but it's an idea. LOL

Haha, that would be a cool bumper sticker!
Hmmm ... perhaps one with a figure like my image here, "I slow down for Curves..." hehe.

This is awesome! I know you said it was clear to you, but honestly, I think the image is even more striking with these lines. It breaks up the black space more, and besides, we get to see more of that "sass" you mentioned. Sooo yeah.

This looks alright, but you know, I liked the old one better. I knew what it was... I thought it was quite clear.

But you're the artist. This one looks fine, darlin'... my only suggestion would have been to make the curls for the pubic hair more finite... smaller... y'know?

LimeGreenSquid In reply to LadyYuna88 [2008-09-21 14:44:38 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, yah, i agree with the pubies being smaller curled ... perhaps i'll redo it again someday!

This is better I think...even if the lines were a bit smoother, that would make it look even nicer, but I know how it is in paint to make perfect lines. Ya, maybe you should have done the pubic hair not so afro like, but it works.

It looks really great now... I think it was too complex a silhouette to not add those lines (as opposed as the sign I use as an avatar, this one is reeeeeally simple, thus doesn't require any further details - and good thing, cos I'm no artist ).

I do have to thank you, since your sign is basically what brought the sign idea back into the forefront of my mind to mull over and think about - even though it took however many years it's been since i first saw it, hehe.
