[OT] Switcheroo Zoo

[Mark]

Every once in a while I like to point out sites, or remind people of the existence of them, that I have found and are just too fun not to make sure they are known. Here's one!

Have fun!

(Save and post the pictures of the abominations you create!)

Would you eat a turkey leg from an animal with the tail of a cheetah, body of an elephant and the head of a walrus...?

 

[Mark]

What if a pig-legged, zebra-tailed, dog-bodied rhinocerous charged you?

 

[Mark]

Fear the multi-phacetted eyes of the Chee-bearfly!

Thanks for pointing this site out Mark. I'll be sure to share this with our 7 year-old Jake in the coming weeks. It will be our home version of a game we saw at Disney World's DisneyQuest. They had computers set up, which basically allowed folks to play Sid (the nasty boy next door neighbor in Toy Story) and create monster/mutant toys from disembodied parts. Then you named your creation, got a color picture of the beast, and all of the necessary parts to build the monster at home. Wicked cool IMO!!

BTW, I haven't forgotten my review promise...it's still forthcoming. I just don't want to rush my commentary and shortchange you in the process.

Cool, thanks, and no problem!

Just in case some folks aren't sure how to capture and image, use that print screen button on your keyboard, open any graphics program (such as Paint) and paste it in. Then crop it to a nice-sized image and save as jpg to keep the file size acceptable for the slower connections among your fellow EN Boarders...

This is great. I love it. The future Mrs. Geekus expressed inital shock and horror, but now she's leaning over my shoulder telling me what to put in.
