Just noticed our characters are doing the same pose.



I noticed that when you first changed. I thought about trying to cut yours out and paste him behind plankton. It would be super sweet if yours had a shadow and I could keep plankton as is, but give him a gnome shadow with the same pose. I wish my graphics skills matched my imagination, but they don't.

I really appreciate you making that for me MC. I think I may try to move that hat slightly, now that you have it in the pic. I'll get gnome-ified soon, either way.

We started off Grey Solace, then changed to Head Full of Traffic (from some U2 lyrics).

However, after 3 separate attempts to get signed (lots of studio time making demos = $$$) and hearing a song on the radio that sounded like a blatant rip-off of one of our songs (Bush's hit "Come Down" ), we picked the name because we felt like the plankton being eaten up by the whales of the music industry. We had recorded a song that is about extremely close to that song (with completely different lyrics) a couple of years before the Bush one hit the radios and had sent it along with a couple of other songs to all the major labels. We still have the poor man's copyright (a tape with our song on it still in a sealed and postmarked envelope) to prove it, but I don't think we would win in court, so we never bothered to pursue it.

No link. My band days were before the internet was big for much other than AOL / Prodigy chatting and pron.

You need to get that tape out of the envelope and get that sucker uploaded then.

Nah. Then the "copyright" is broken. We have other copies, but cassette tapes don't hold out very well over the ages and I'm not sure I even have a player anymore. I do have our 2nd DAT tape that we may get put onto CDs / digital media for old times sake but we were no longer playing that one song once we heard it on the radio. Everyone thought it was a cover song that we were singing wrong, so we dropped it.

Reminds me of a friend that had Sony blatantly rip off his music several years back.

He won his court case though and got a nice check from Sony to boot.
