Gritty Abstractness
Gritty Abstractness brings forth a clear impression of a chicken, but is too far away from a clear form to truly be called as stylized presentation of such. As such it is best to think of it as being an abstract image. The heavily shaded thick black and white form leaves a strong contrast in the image and the sharp angles bring out a distinct feeling.

Blog Action Day 2010: Water
Once more this not serious blog is participating in Blog Action Day, because I enjoy the occasional pouring on of social commentary.
Even if they can't count these guys make a strong case about drinking water being good. So, I think we can all agree that drinking water is important. Really though the site leading this is kinda wrong a lot.
If one billion people out of out 6.8 Billion people on earth don't have clean water... that isn't one in eight. I don't know if that first number's accurate but it certainly isn't the same as their ratio.(That would be about one in seven)
According to them the United States was opposed to clean Water and sanitation being a human right, but according to the link they provided the motion passed 122 to 0. Maybe we were opposed but we weren't that opposed.
But that site being a mess isn't really the point. And do these people realize what would need to be done to actually provide clean water to everyone in the world? They just assume that because I have something to say in their program that I'm on their side. I am to an extent but that sort of thing is expensive and given the current economic situation of the world that sort of project isn't going to be easy to pull off.
When we're all prospering we can help the poor and downtrodden, but when we're slipping and might become the poor and downtrodden we need to buckle down.
And of course here is a polluted version of the Experimental Water Chicken. He was one of my first, so even though he's not looking so great I can always pull him back for a bit of screen time. The chicken hasn't changed much(though he is dirty and crying now) but his surroundings were horribly polluted.

Today's chicken is more or less just the standard fair. You know Basic Chicken Maker Style. If you don't like it then this site ain't for you. What's important today is that I put a tree in the background, symbolizing the unyielding strength to stand and grow that this chicken strives to achieve.

Which of these is the real Chicken Maker? The great mystery of this site is obviously my true identity, so I've decided to share.
On the left is a young fellow in jeans and sneakers.
On the right is a chicken in mysterious brown.
I for one think it's probably the one on the right who is the real Chicken Maker
I dunno. I mean everybody else draws little doodles of themselves so I wanted to try doing it too...
EDIT: I hear your complaints and have attempted to correct the error.

Old Paint is Better
Having seen many people doodle with MS Paint these days I said to myself, "Why are these people drawing so stupidly. They seem clever with their witty comments." Then I played on a Windows 7 computer. What the hell did they do to my beloved Paint. I mean I'd seen screen shots and things before and been kinda 'eh,' but I figured a bit of mussing with it and it'd be back to the old standard. But NO! I mean if I used the pencil instead of the brush I got rid of the anti-aliasing but that's not good enough! Whole thing just doesn't work for me.
And I hate those Ribbon Interfaces. I didn't even realize you could ruin Microsoft Office until I actually started using them regularly last year. And I just realized I whined about this before, but I feel like I should whine again anyways. Because this isn't just a chicken website. It's also an MS Paint website.
Here's a thing to get it back to the good one. I suggest all you Paint artists follow it and get back old MS Paint where there was none of that anti-aliasing and ribbons and what-not that doesn't belong in MS Paint.
Here's a chicken. Made in MS Paint. The Paint Bucket tool is dumping over his head to color him in, which wouldn't work out properly had I used the Windows 7 version of Paint.(There'd be all those little off-white fragments around the edge.)

Future Imperfect Once More
REMAKE!
A hard-line tough guy living in the endless wastelands of the future. Crossing a seared and desolate world, walking past those he'd stood with in the past. So many terrible deaths surrounded him and he had nothing left. He alone had survived his last battle and has been left with a terrible scar, both mental and physical.
