Too Hot for Zazzle?

I had this image up on my zazzle page but for some reason they took it down.  They cited my use of the term Twilight in my tags as the reason... or something about how my tags or description possibly had some problem with Summit Entertainment.
I don't really see an issue so I didn't specify a name in the tags or description but my design was again denied... it might've been the accidental use of the Twilight name which was corrected minutes after... but they took down all of my projects so it may have been the use of vampires and sparkle in the same sentence! 
It's stupid to me as it's an original work that at most falls under the category of fair use which is legal... but the font isn't the same and the background is pale blue... oh and Real Vampires Don't Sparkle!

Anyhow, I placed the design on CafePress which doesn't seem to have an issue with it, you can find it at
It has no alusions to Twilight or Twi-hards or even sparkly vampires... I imagine that'll make it hard to find but no one should have a lawsuit on there hands.

Hearts on Parade






This image was originally designed as part of my Valentine's Day Line.  While it certainly fits that profile, it has become more.  I think this photo has a certain quality to it that suggest a real emotional response.  Perhaps a longing for Love?

In any event, you can find this piece on several items over at my Zazzle shop, if you'd like.

Bunny Scene


Here is a scene I wanted to get out by Easter.  I think it works for all Spring really despite that I made it for Easter.  Originallly I designed it to be a Bunny with a little grass under it but I guess I got a little carried away!

If you want to see this design on some items for purchase, you can check out my Zazzle Store!

Alone

One of my more popular works, Alone was originally just me and some friends riffing on what was going on.  One day, I had my friend Mike come over and help me film it... I later edited the film and decided to set it to a royalty free music track.  I want to go back and add an original composition... but right now I have more important projects to work on... like editing all that raw footage I have!

Pot O' Gold


     Are you revving up for the St. Patrick's Day festivities? I myself don't do a whole lot of celebrating... but I decided awhile back that the best way to start learning some programs is to make simple items... especially for the holidays as it would provide me with ideas. The Pot O' Gold is from my St. Patrick's Day collection but I mean... who couldn't use a big ole Pot of Gold?

See this design on some products at Zazzle!

Screams From Inside

Screams From Inside is a bit more... ummm... dark than my usual stuff.  It just feels a bit more moody than I go for... but this is how it came out... I like the Sketch renderer in Poser and it adds a mood to the piece that you wouldn't otherwise find.  Unless I could sketch.
