Bill -

You neither deferred or encouraged ideas for new graemlins, so...here's just an idea that struck me while responding to a message tonight.

It would be great to have a graemlin that gives a thumbs up or similar, with a voice balloon or similar that says "OK!" in the style old Chevrolet dealer script.

Perhaps he/she/it? can retire an old underused one...?

Well, since you said "thumbs up"... then I'll agree!! laugh

Hummm... anybody got any graphics that I can use for a model? Especially the "OK" sign... there must be a Chevy site with it somewhere. :confused:

Too cool ! I think you got a winner there. He'll fit right in next to the blue bowtie guy. I like that it helps portray the Chevrolet spirit on this site.

Now, I promise I won't start getting crazy and begin asking if you can create a Pat Boone singing "see__ the U-S-A in your Chev__rolet". bigl

I appreciate the response. Nice job! drink

What? Elvira sells beer, not Chevys ...!

But in the small event Bill will entertain you...how about a smiley face with a long black wig and a teeny bat in the background? :p

If you could Bill, how about a blue oval with an "F" in it and thru all of it a big slash or X. This way none of us would ever have to write that nasty 4 letter word again. dance

Bill,
I sure like it. Let's not have the blue oval thing. It is better to keep things positive!

For the Elvira gramelin, I was thinking more along the lines of a nice smiley face, long black hair and a nice pair of headlights....you know......something like this: [Linked Image from nostalgicreflections.com]

I would like one showing a golfer pumping his fist after a great shot to indicate "super advice" "great topic" "nice reply" "ect". Oh well, to each his own. :rolleyes: laugh laugh


I think I'm a fairly wise person because I'm smart enough to realise I'm not too bright.
