Description This little ditty is going to be a present for my friend Mari on her birthday. (It's been a week, but I'm slow as usual.) It's based of the song No Surprises by Radiohead, because she is very emotionally attached to OK Computer. (In fact, she's so attached to it, she cries everytime she hears it. Let's hope this doesn't make her cry. Least not in a sad way... )

Anyways, I'm sorta happy with this, I like the text. I used a typewriter, and then scanned the clippings, trying to preserve the shadow of the clippings, to give it some versimilitude. (I used that sentence purely to flaunt my ego. )

So, anyway, let's hear y'all shout Happy Birthday Mari!

That is really cool! I would cry in a good way if someone made me something as cool as that for my birthday!

I remember seeing a Radiohead video a long long time ago, and this reminds me of it quite a bit, though I'm not sure why, maybe just the mental connection because of what it's based off

I bet she was happy with this gift

Love the illustration and the texture the typed letters gives. I like too that it is a gift for someone.

(Sorry if this gets posted twice. Crappy isp and all.)

Since I still have no personal connection or feelings towards this band, it is hard for me to say anything..

The drawings are nice though, but I'm a little unsecure on what they mean, haven't even heard the song you know..

I guess it's a suiting picture..

you stole key-elements from my gift.

now we give two very similiar gifts, and I don't like it.. it seems weird to give two nearly similair gifts..

I came up wit a radiohead picture first, and I made it first , and I wrapped it first, and you will simply have to destroy your gift an come up with something of your OWN.-.

get some originality kid!

bet all those good grades you get at school is because you steal things an put it into your assignments..

I know you stole that crying demon and used it in one of your assignements.. I will now blackmail you..

Oh by the way it's a pretty good picture.. thus, I hate it even more! *bites off a corner of the picture* nice work..
