Ok, this will need a little background info so that y'all don't think I'm completely crazy :)

Last night I was on AIM with

tresca, and we were discussing, among other things, who sucked more at photo manips and graphics in general. She showed me some of her work (including an awfully disturbing Bitney manip *shudder*), but really, they weren't half bad. Funny, maybe, but not bad :) So we came up with the "Suck At Graphics" award, and her first challenge to me was: Lex... with bunny slippers, a feather boa, a wet suit, and a tiara.

So see, it's all tresca's fault :)

You don't have to tell me it's bad... I already know. Besides, that was the point, wasn't it? :)

I wanted to put him in the castle, but I didn't find a nice image to use as background. Plus, his head's a little big, and the tiara's crooked (but you can just imagine that it's because it keeps slipping). It's actually a really pretty tiara, but it doesn't really stand out on Lex's head... Oh well. At least the 'dillo's there *g*

So, tresca said the prize was Lex. I want him. Now. Preferably in that outfit :) And now it's tresca's turn. Can't wait to see what she comes up with ;)

Extracted from AIM:

tresca: Poor Lex. I am *so* mean to him.
maricats: Hey, how do you know he wouldn't like it??
tresca: You're absolutely right! I don't! Maybe Clark likes it too...
maricats: Get him out of his routine... Make his life a little more interesting. What's the good of having money if you can't be, um, eccentric?
tresca: Oh yes! I forgot! He's the eccentric old man in the castle!
maricats: Little kids will make bets on who has the guts to knock on his door... They'll TP his castle...
tresca: And spread stories about his hump.
maricats: See? We're just giving him a hand... Giving the kids something to talk about.
maricats: We're mean :)
