DRAW ME: I am a Unique Person!

This is something for all of you visitors to enjoy!

In a celebration of diversity, I created the below drawing of a very unique person (see bottom of post). You may notice, of course, that he/she has a slight development problem. That's where all of you folks come in: First, left-click on the image to select it (it should load to its actual size). Then right-click on the image and download it to your desktop (by selecting "Save Picture As" from the resulting menu). Using your favorite art editing program (file is in GIF format, so you may need to increase colors to 16 million), add a physical feature to help this person develop and grow into a complete human being. Save your contribution, then e-mail it back to me at neroguejournal@aol.com.

[ *SEE THE UPDATED PHOTO AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST!*]

PLEASE READ THE RULES:
1.) It doesn't matter which body part you choose, but you must select one from the list I have below (so please, no penises).

2.) Put whatever clothes you like on your body part, but try to keep it similar to the clothing on the other parts.

3.) You may choose a skin color, or leave the part blank. But once a skin color is chosen for a particular person, that color must be maintained for the whole body. (EDITOR'S NOTE: A colorless part [by default considered a white person] may be colored in if a particular body needs a part to be completed.)

4.) Keep the body part similar in proportion to the rest of the body.

5.) No more than two contributions to start with, until visitor participation is gauged.

6.) DO NOT change the size of the image. It should be Width-280 px. by Height-330 px.

7.) The deadine for drawing submissions is tentatively set for May 31st, 2007, depending on contributions.

As the contributions flow in (I'm sure!!), I will indicate next to each listed body part how many times it was selected, so as to give others a better idea of what to pick next - hopefully, the least selected item (the drawing in progress will also be displayed). Many parts, such as the nose and ears, will be paired as a single contribution. Contributors names (or screennames, if you must) will be listed at the bottom of each drawing, along with what they contributed.


Duplicate contributions will create a new unique person, which will be added to this post, next to or below the original drawing. And so eventually, we may have an entire community of unique individuals making up our own diverse community! (This "community" may be placed on a separate post.)

But it all starts with this first special human being! It's all up to you folks! So start downloading and start drawing.


BODY PARTS:
- HAIR (1)
- EYES + EARS (eyebrows optional)
- NOSE + MOUTH (1)
- TORSO + NECK (1)
- LEFT ARM + HAND (1)
- RIGHT ARM + HAND
- LEFT LEG + FOOT (1)
- RIGHT LEG + FOOT


UPDATE NOTE: My brother, Gerry, has kindly contributed this poor woman's torso. There is a tragic tale to be told somewhere in her life, I'm sure - as if something went terribly wrong in some car accident, or perhaps a diet plan gone awry. Even so, she's still smiling!
