Gaaaaahhhh!!!

Anybody guess what I forgot to do all week while I was working on getting my new site up??

Anyhow, to make up for it I'm gonna post a whole bunch of stickers in this thread. But since I've been working and looking at 3d art all week that will be my focus for this thread. Enjoy this slightly more artsy side. :)

Under The Willow Tree
This is a new shop from the same minds behind the Kat House. Full of faeries and other mystical creatures browsing through tends to make one's mind wander.




Dreamy Draw
This is a more estblished shop which has recently started adding 3d art. Here is one of the most recent additions... EmotiGoth!



FiannaSidhe's Original Gothic Fairy and Fantasy Art
Another new shop devoted to 3d art, the images in here will capture your attention and won't let you go.



Dreams in Digital Art
A shameless plug for my own recent venture into digital art. And while I know that it's another smiley... the expression on his face just makes me laugh every time I see it.



Don't forget to vote for your favorite of last week's stickers in the BSR community page. And the ones from this week will go up on monday so that everybody has a chance to vote.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster Sees All

SO I know that the FSM was more popular a few months ago... But I saw this bumper sticker and was reminded of it.

I always thought that the FSM was fun, and dead on when it came to trying to point out how insane the whole intelligent design thing was. And it's because it still makes me laugh to think about, I decided to post the sticker here.



and for those of you who have never heard of the FSM... venganza.org

Now there are times that I try not to get too much into the political side of the bumper stickers, even though they are sometimes the funniest.

Today is not one of those times. I saw this bumper sticker and decided that it was perfect to post today.

Of course this has always confused me. How is it possible to be both pro-life and pro-war?

Anyway, this sticker points out the paradox. Perfect for anybody else who is confused, or just to say that you see the paradox.

Megacreations

Who remembers the dot com bubble? All those companies that shot up like rockets, and so many came crashing back down to earth.

Yeah, we all want to forget.

But today's bumpersticker takes a lighter approach to the dot com burst.

It was the reference to the dot coms, along with the obvious lousy t-shirt play that caught my attention with this bumper sticker.

And the Finalists are...

As promised, I am now compiling the poll for the favorite sticker in January. Even more incentive to vote every week is that I know that at least for one week I am the only person who voted. Now ya'll really don't want to have to choose from my favorites when you could be choosing from your own now do you?

Anyway, to make voting easy, here are the three stickers that were voted favorites. Choose your fave, and then go to the BSR community page to vote.

The first sticker is from The Kat House. This is a fun sticker that is full of attitude. Perfect for all drivers who are stuck in front of the idiots.



The second sticker is from LookCrazy.com, and expresses well the frustrations of the insanity of everyday life.



Finally, we have the sticker from
iBrake. Another sticker directed at the drivers who are behind you. Do you brake just to see the look on the other driver's face? Then this is the sticker for you.



Alright everybody, those are your choices. So pick your fave, and go vote.

Oval Stickers. net

Somebody said something in a forum yesterday that made me think. No, I'm not going to tell you what was said, but I'll tell you what I realized.

I realized that instead of jut posting the stickers, and a one or two line blurb about them, I need to actually discuss the sticker some. This will accomplish 2 things. It will provide keywords that the search engines can latch onto, and that will mean more traffic.

It should also help bring up the clicks through to the bumper sticker itself. The more targeted click throughs will end up helping to cover the different costs of BSR.

One thing that I'm not as happy about, however, is that sometimes it may get to sound a little like a bumper sticker ad.

What I'll try to do though is return to my original thought when I was starting the rant. To discuss the actual bumper sticker itself, why it was liked or disliked, and maybe even what made me choose it. Hopefully this will encourage more discussion on the bumper sticker, and grow our little community.

Anyway, on to today's sticker:

I came across the ovalstickers.net site today after seeing a cute little smiley face bumper sticker. My original plan had been to post the smiley, and then I saw the Geek bumper sticker. Of course the geek in me said that I had to post it.

Of course on of the things that stands out in this sticker is the simplicity. There are no graphics and no fancy text. But the simplicity is what makes it work, especially given the euro style of the sticker.
