Don’t worry, this’ll all be interesting when I’m dead.

Here’s another 460 minute doodle (7 hours!) for you, posted on overdraw.net.

Coz Baldwin’s “Memory“

Two sausages are frying in a pan.

One sausage turns to the other and says “Is it just me or is it getting hot in here?” The other sausage looks at him and says “AHHHH! A TALKING SAUSAGE!!!!”

Part 1: New doodle for a new doodling site. Overdraw.net is the site and it’s going to be everything Doodledraw should have been. Guaranteed good art on this thing — and no crap! My first doodle can be found here.

Part 2: Calling all graphic artists…

I was over my mom’s house, setting up AOL on her computer and I went to this site. Upon loading, I found myself almost in tears when I saw all the graphics on here look more like finger paintings because of the compression. I can’t stand to see compressed, distorted graphics. What confuses me is I don’t see it like that on my computer. I see perfectly sharp images. That little header graphic at the top of the page, the thin, grey gradient with “cozbaldwin v.7″ is as clean and smooth of a transition into white as you can get, but her computer showed it as 5 or 6 blatent shades of grey. I won’t even begin to go into how my precious doodles looked.

So first: Who out there sees the gradient more like blobs of grey?

Second: Why is it happening? Is it just AOL’s browser that compresses the image more? Why do I not see it?

Finally: How can I avoid this!? I feel like a moron thinking my page looks nice and clean and then I learn it looks like a pile of poop on everyone else’s computer?

Please help me understand. I’m starting to think maybe .gif is the way to go?

UPDATE: I changed most of the doodles to gifs as well as the “outlook not so good” graphic and the “gradient header” as well. Please tell me if it makes a difference.

Another freestyle doodle added… “Distant Dreams” And as you’ll see, each doodle has it’s own link so you can send and share Coz’s doodles with your friends much, much easier!

There is also a “doodles” link on each page in the navigation section.

There’s this guy Fallerd on Doodledraw. He’s been doing some awesome two-tone contrast pictures. Eventually, people have started requesting portraits to be done of their favorite celebrity — because they’re just so good. Today, I gave in and asked that a Milla Jovovich be done. And wow….

To see the rest of the pics he’s been doing over the past week, click HERE. You’re bound to see something you like. (by the way… the page that is linked to is NOT office friendly)

And of course you can see MY doodles right HERE.

What do you get when you cross 20-something, semi-feminist, Abercrombie & Fitch wearin’, college educated white females… with the Beastie Boys?

Well, my friend… you get Northern State.

I was just watching them on Carson Daly and I couldn’t close my mouth. They were so bad — and they’re gaining a lot of attention.

It’s… just… not… right!!! You have to listen to their music to really appreciate what I’m saying, because I realize what they’re doing seems admirable.

Egads!!

Who’s going with me!?

God damn, I’m getting a TON of fucking search referrals from that perpetuum site. Too bad the site’s overloaded to death. I really wanted you guys to check it out.

It’s sad when a busy, touring rock star has more time and inclination to keep a journal regulated more than me — an unemployed lewsor.

You must play this until the end. You MUST.

Did another doodle called The Equestrian. It’s a reproduction of a photo (not my photo). I think I spent longer on this one than any others thus far. (approx. 4.5 hours)

Happy? It’s not a morbid and depressing doodle! Damn you all….
