This week's mascots are pretty much inseparable, so I'm introducing them all at once.

Bio below. v


The Social Butterflies

Joined Game Jolt: 2012

Hobbies: Light gossip, communal flower gardening

Dislike: Synthetic fragrances

Bio: Tim, Tam, and Tom (from left to right), known as the Social Butterflies by all and sundry, grew up together in a small country village. They have always been close friends, minus a few childhood squabbles, and share a desire to contribute to the health and happiness of their community. In their free time, they enjoy good conversation, along with cultivating an organically grown communal flower garden. When there's news to be heard, one can always count on these three to know even the smallest details of a matter!

Author's notes:

It's probably pretty obvious that these three represent the various communication-centric features of GJ, such as comments, the forums, and so on. I like to think of their positivity and peaceful surroundings as being a sort of model of the ideal community vibe we could hope for here on Game Jolt.

Since the community is such a tremendous focus here, the butterflies have been used in lots of different ways on the site. At times, when I've received an assignment to create a new graphic, it's actually been hard not to think "Tim, Tam, and Tom would be perfect for that," because they're so easy to use in various scenarios.

The second image I included was made for an article about two years ago. It's a favorite of mine, because it really emphasizes the strong team spirit shared by these lovable characters.

No pranks from me.

Just a reminder that Blarghfield exists.

Lasagna.

Pear blossoms!

I've finally added a channel to my gallery community for photos, by the way... LOL My photos are just point & shoot, nothing fancy, but it will help me keep track of what I've shared with you all.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

I... Uh... I definitely knew how to use the jackhammer...

Bro was really gunning for me, but I managed to get the last gem for our team... While I was dying??? Hey, I'll take it.

Also, this was my first online match, and my first online win! (My team carried me. )

Here's a photo from one of my recent walks! I think daffodils have to be one of the most welcome sights after a long cold winter.

It's chilly again today, but I have the wood stove fired up and cranking out the heat! Hope everyone's doing well.

Here's a fun one I made for Spoonflower's delft tiling surface pattern design challenge. Of course I had to theme my entry around chickens, because... I mean, come on... Chickens! #ChickenTrender
