Well it's supposed to be melodic, like a song. Lyrics don't really have rules, and limerick's rules can be bent or broken, so long as you got dat flow.

SlimX hit the nail on the head, he's no stranger to flow.

Actually, the last line is a tad wonky, but I decided I had to sacrifice a little bit of the rythm to make the grammar work. Leaving off the word, "But" at the beginning would have fixed it, but I didn't want two lines both starting with "If" and I also wanted to maintain the relevance to footsies by specifying that simply not attacking didn't make you safe.

Trivia: I originally just came up with the first line and was going to just post that in a sort of har har "What if?" sort of way, but then I came up with the rest while in the bathroom.

See, genius emerges when one has "a moment" on the crapper.

And yes, my point exactly, rules can be bent and broken. Especially when you're super fly.

Thanks. Maybe you're thinking of composition? The original sketch was by DaigoJr.

Kinda random but the new Super World Warriors skin on Higher Voltage Online is awesome. Some of the characters are spot-on, like everything from the picture choice to the quote to the spacing of the words. Karin, Q, Oro, Sodom, Birdie, Abel, and Rufus are all top tier. (Here's a directory listing if you don't want to mash F5 for an hour.)

Looks like all official art and official quotes to me.

"Cancer" drew Alex on SRK.

I colored it

Guess i'm easily impressed by bolded ellipses.

How come you don't do action poses? You could draw in hit sparks and such. Speaking of which, is it scientifically possible to do TWO lens flares in one image?

Sometimes I do action poses, but not like fighting game scenes or anything, heh. But I've just been in the mood to collaborate lately so a lot of my recent stuff is drawn by some one else and colored by me.

Now, if you can find a sun dog to photograph.

I don't know if anyone cares per-se, but since I brought up having an art account on youtube: xenozipart. Which I update only on entirely random whims.

I forget if I ever pointed out this Brick Wall post on my IaMP blog but I don't think it applies only to IaMP. I think it may apply even outside of video games for that matter.

Sweet. If you don't mind, i might post a 3-4 sentence excerpt on sh and link to it this weekend. Maybe this one?

Cuz if i read that, i think it would make me curious enough to read the whole article.

In addition to yours, i'll include an excerpt/link to this article along with maybe a third one from another website:

Yeah, the whole thing. It's just two rounds of Magneto getting beat up in two seconds by some weird floating ball thing after a minute of mashing kicks.
