  • this is great. i'm sending my imaginary money right now!
  • What I found oddly compelling were those flash files that ended up in the web cache: stylized2.swf and salesman.swf. Stylized is a skimptop version of the woman. She stares at and follows your mouse pointer for all eternity. The man does the same, and he's got glasses now. I've got the girl now trapped now, watching me for ever... muah ha ha...
  • did you notice she even breathes!? well, at least her ample bosom heaves. not that i was noticing... um... whatever.
  • Sounds like a good deal, if I had enough money to blow on crap like this. Can I use some of my Ultima Online cash for this?
  • Someone might want to tell that woman that she has a couple squids burrowing into the back of her head. That's the only explanation for those tenticles coming out of the back of her head, right?
  • i'm sorry, shawnj, i can't tear my eyes away from her heaving bosom. there's a squid attacking her?
  • It's either a squid or something positively Lovecraftian.
  • i think it may just be very windy in the collective unconscious.
  • Yeah, the parent company's Miskatonic Real Estate. Who knew that SideDish had a thing for the digital chicks? Not that I blame her, for those pixels are indeed large and heaving.
  • i'd like to go on the record as i am in favor of anything large and heaving. any large and heaveful things? heave-ho!
  • I'll say whateveer you want, whenever you want" Oh boy, don't get near the website of the avatar flash talking heads if you're spooked by automatons triying to pass as friendly humans. Check the demo for their avatar creation interface for lots of heaving characters... there's even a couple, with photographs in place of styilized features, that really push the boundaries of the uncanny valley. Weeeird.

  • Monkeyfilter: really push the boundaries of the uncanny valley. I like talking heads. Especially if they're close to realism but not photographically so.
