I belong to another forum where I sometimes fulfill requests for avatars and signatures. I made the following animation to use for my own signature. I wanted it to be about "Graphics Reality", of course, but even more, I wanted it to be about "Graphics" AND "Reality". I used a backwards question mark, because Life often consists of juggling questions, even those that are backwards and don't make any sense.

Picasso, Rembrandt, Henry Moore. I am old enough to remember Henry Moore's sigs and they weren't up to this standard! Rembrandt though was probably the sig genius.

Wow, thehermit, you're quite the name dropper aren't you? (lol)

I'm primarily an artist (painting, drawing, whatever), but I enjoy computer graphics, especially making animations. Speaking of Picasso and Rembrandt, here are a couple of userbars I made about them a while back:

I like the backwards question mark as it also makes the image look symmetrical and I think that really works

Thanks, stevo871. I really appreciate your feedback and I'm glad you like it.

When I made the backwards question mark, my thought was to make something "quirky" to represent Reality, and I wasn't really thinking about symmetry. But by your mentioning symmetry, that adds a whole new interpretation for me when I watch the animation. So, when I see the two question marks alone on the background, I'm now able to *appreciate* the symmetry aspect more.

Thanks, stevo871, for giving me another layer of interpretation to my animation.

Thank you so much, judibola, for your nice comment.

If you see something that appeals to you in my little animation, take that input and transform it into your own creation, spiritually, physically, or metaphysically.

That's the purpose of shared art, in my opinion, energy exchange.
