Actually, nobody had gotten The Wizard of Oz yet, so good work! Also, Star Wars was just the plain logo from A New Hope, not any of the titles with an M in it. :)

Thanks for playing along, everyone!

The cover was cool and makes for a fun game. My friends are enjoying it.

I just saw the art and came in here to compliment it but I see that in both this and the review thread it's been getting a lot of accolades, so just add me to the pile. (fwiw I recognized fight club, pulp fiction, toy story, alien, amelie, clockwork orange, friday the 13th, and american pie.)

This week, I really like your submissions, Aimee, especially It's Just Not Right and Onomatopoeia.

I submitted my first ever attempt at cover art. When I made it yesterday there were no Tiny Town 's but I wasn't able to submit it last night and I was at work all day today, so of coarse by the time I do get to put it up, Way better submissions are already there. Oh well. It was my first photoshop experience (my friends talked me through it) and I had fun and I'll do it again.

THANKS SPUD!!! you rock.

Sorry about that... Spud said there was no TiTT entry so I decided to whip something up in about half an hour, and then did a couple of other variations.

I definitely like #3 the best, myself. I tweaked some of the shapes to make them a bit rounder, and also the Godzilla-like thing has little hearts on his back in lieu of spikes. Fire-breathing is also cool.

It's not a giant monster. It's a tiny monster, in a tiny town, in a snow globe.

Marcus Kellis's artwork for Give it to Me is a blatant toothpaste for dinner ripoff. It's also hilarious, had me chuckling for a long time. Good job.

Nice job on the Onomatopoeia cover.
(Edit: Also, fluffy, you've gotten way way better. Great work.)

To everyone who keeps making covers with inside jokes and shitty puns, I just want you to know that there is at least one person who finds them wholly unfunny and unilaterally terrible. Complete waste of time, etc. Please stop.
