Damn it.

Damn it. Remember my Simpsons Valentine that I made back in 2001? Somebody else has done an identical version and it’s even been linked on Boing Boing. I don’t want to accuse the guy of ripping me off; it’s not like it’s a totally original concept or anything, and if we both traced the same screenshot then it just follows that our drawings would look alike. I guess I’ve just got sour grapes that now somebody else is getting all the official credit for having the idea.

Edited: Upon further inspection, there are some significant differences in the drawing. I squared mine up, while he left the bottom a little skewed. His wheels are also drawn differently to mine. Oh well. I guess great minds think alike!

    Ahh just saw that epsiode on TV. I missed a lot of Simpsons in the UK since it was only on satellite for ages.

    You just have to go to the card from the end now with the Bee in it.
