"LOST Mini-Break Activity #4"

Make some South Park style LOST characters.
Getting antsy for Thursday? Need some mindless activity to help the last few days go faster? Try creating some goofy LOST peeps on this funny site: http://www.sp-studio.de/ Use all the graphics available (skin, hair, eyes, extra stuff, etc.) in the program, capture and save the pix with something like "Printkey.exe", and then go crazy making some more funny changes with whatever paint program you have. There are lots of clothes and accessories to play around with. It's sort of like a 21st century paperdoll set. :-) Well, making these funny portraits keeps me and the nephews busy laughing after school, so that's good. We use them for our avatars sometimes too.

Hurley, Juliet (with Ben), and Patchy from previous seasons.

I can see how this can become addicting!

Capcom said...

Yep, heheh, and the boys like doing really gross ones, like Patchy. :-D

I'll always come back Capcom!

Thanks for the activity too, mangement skills training will be a little bearable now!

Capcom said...

Awesome Alien! Hey, did you ever wonder why management classes are so boring, when actual management is so much the opposite, as in "never a dull and non-frightening moment"? Most useless management classes are the scary territory where theory and application never meet. :o)

Lol the best was last year when my company shut down for 2 days so everyone could get time management training. We lost a whole week recovering from those 2 days off! I wonder if the Others had management training?

Nice work Capcom. Here's some news about another one of our favorite shows.

Capcom said...

LOL Alien, now your company needs a class on how to manage a business while everyone is off taking classes. :-D Something tells me that the Others took the IBM management courses on how to lie without really lying, and telling the truth without actually revealing anything. If ya know what I mean.

Alien, you really should post over at the Lost Community blog, it's fun over there, and very informative. We discuss all the arcane junk as well as the obvious topics of LOST.

Great news Memphish, so if it comes back in July, it won't conflict with LOST on Thursdays at 10:00. I was kind of worried about that. Not that I would miss LOST of course, but that I would have to miss Mad Men. I do hope that they tone down the lechery somewhat in Season2, but I doubt they will. :-p

Capcom, there were rumors during the S1 run that S2 was going to leap forward in time a few years. Wouldn't that put us even more into the age of free love? ;) I think S1 being in this more Leave It To Beaver era, yet so lecherous made it interesting. Of course, half the show was the visuals, so I hope they won't mess with them too much.

Capcom said...

Really? Wow, I guess that I do vaguely remember them saying that. But when we left Don, he was pining on the stairs after his family left. I wonder where they'll pick up. I don't want the Jewish girl to go back with him, she's too good for him.

I hope that they are still committed to the visuals that they had before also. For me, that was the main draw of the show. I love Mid 20th Century modern design, especially the office furniture. :-)

maven said...

Great news about MAD MEN! I, too, heard they were going to fast forward some years. Part of the allure of the season 1 was the great depiction of that era. Hopefully, that "accuracy" will continue.

Capcom said...

Oh good, another Mad Men viewer! :-)
