Description There is a song I grew up with called Big Yellow Taxi. I grew up with the Counting Crows rendition, not the original. I was listening to it when this happened. Mainly because of the "they took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum" cause it sounds very Dr. Seuss like.

The song: [link]

I'm not a fan of the new Lorax film. I felt the message was lost and it strayed rather far from the original. The visuals were lovely, they did fantastic work on the artistic portion of the film. It was just the implementation of everything else that I took issue with.

But this song fit this movie's message rather well to me and struck me as something I could work with. As I downloaded new brushes and have been playing with them I thought it might be fun to try. And this was the result.

Not bad. When the film is released on DVD proper you could do it with scenes.

Danke! I'm glad you like it! And yeah, I wanted to recapture some of the darker remorse of the end of the old short.

I have heard very negative critics on the plot because of the loss of the real message...I am interested on viewing it tough.I wanna see how screwed up it actually is,plus if the graphics are good I at least have a reason to feel impressed after I watch the movie
