Number ONE: to win. dexter_collins February 2 2005, 21:30:32 UTC

Number One to win: the Marlboro racing car driver.

The picture I drew was of a cartoon, pink monster in the shape of square. Rather like a Mr. Men character.

The patches on the racer's overalls allign with the eyes of the monster, and the white panel surrounding the 'Marlboro' sponser's label resembles the monsters white smile.

The arms were coming out the top side of the pink monster's head, which is close to where the man's arms are, in relation to the patches and 'smile'.

Also, the general squarish-ness :) of the image leads me to associate the image that came to mind with this picture the most.

Also, oddly, I tried to imagine the monster's feet but they were out of sight. Just like in this image.

Well of course you may.

I've befriended you for being interesting and polite!

Steam punk, eh?

Have you read "The Difference Engine" by William Gibson and ... somebody else? It's quite good.

I liked Neal Stephenson's "The Diamond Age" a lot.

Stay cool!
