Before this goes where I don't want it to go-

Fabroman- Overall, I like it. It's got a "rat fink" feel to it, with some good elements. The wrench in hand is great. I've lost track of how many times I've done a pull up the road with a screwdriver or wrench while tuning! Again, I'm a bit concerned about the character- I may be asking a lot, but can we get another submission with a character that won't be somewhat "identifiable"?

I'll have to agree with Chris. While it's not Taz, copyright laws don't care if it looks identical. If it's easily mistakable, it could end in a nice cease and desist letter...or worse, a summons.

I will have to give it to you, though, I really like it

Yuuup! Did a sweet drift while doing a shakedown run on the Green Machine... Watched front wheel bounce across the road and into a culvert. Took me 10 minutes to find it again! I had a pair of cheezy, Harbour-Fright-esque dolly wheels on the front because the permanent ones weren't ready yet!

What about this? I was working with paint and I couldnt get back to the pointer so I couldnt manipulate things (or delete them) how I wanted to. But you guys see the basic concept right? As you can see its just the go kart that was built on the homepage.

I was thinking someone with photoshop could change the color to just an outline of the kart? IDK, someone with a better program can play with it.
