some questions for cbuchholz

*this blog does not promise that cbuchholz will answer said question, but encourages additional questions regardless*

why don't you post gallery photos?

so, i hear you are a jahova. i know nothing about that. how's that work as far as your art is concerned? are you secretly brainwashing us all? what is your cult going to be called?

how much time do you find you generally spend on a design?

have you ever had your heart broken?

what do you personally feel is your strongest tee design to date?

any hints on what's going to happen w/ your select? are you going to be tempted, like so many past artist, to just have them print something that you've had sitting around for a long time?

i'm currently in love w/ the dovoctchkyskthdzka band (okay, it is late and i can't remember how to spell it) which you happened to recommend to our lovely valorandvellum. knowing this, what other music do you recommend i listen to next?

what maks you shake your rumpah?

what makes you shake your head?

what would you like to ask the ppl who vote on your designs?

etc later

Are those trick questions?

chelly on Feb 21 '07 at 11:53pm

sometimes i have a billion questions for designers
*shrugs*

NatySpaghetti on Feb 21 '07 at 11:54pm

i dont think they are trick questions, its just an excuse for chelly to talk to him so she can drewl all over him...am i right?

:D

valorandvellum on Feb 21 '07 at 11:55pm

Hahahahaha!!! Chelly, that's like an interview! Although I must admit... I'd be curious to see what he has to say!

Noobits on Feb 21 '07 at 11:59pm

Good questions Chelly. Maybe you can do a random interview a week with whoever and see how many responses you get.

MooseDinner on Feb 22 '07 at 12:01am

Devotchka? I was thinking about seeing them when I went to WA last summer.

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 12:31am

well, i've actually been thinking about trying to do open interveiw blogs w/ the artists for a while now

but i never know how well it will be received

for instance, i would start it out and then other bloggers would also ask questions and then the artist would just answer whatever they want to in an honest fashion

although things do tend to get wacky around these parts

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 12:31am

DEVOTCHKA!!!

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 8:17am

bump in case he checks this in the morning

Bramish on Feb 22 '07 at 8:21am

I'm not him, but I can tell you that I do enjoy a fine mature cheddar more than most other cheeses.

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 8:24am

*noted

Shebly on Feb 22 '07 at 8:31am

Nice questions.

Shebly on Feb 22 '07 at 8:32am

I'm interested to see his response.

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 9:46am

bring up my post

lemonalle on Feb 22 '07 at 9:50am

hahahaha, it would be awesome if he responded, especially to these two:

what makes you shake your rumpah?

what makes you shake your head?

realslimnatey on Feb 22 '07 at 9:51am

i know if he does answer these questions for you chelly, youre just gonna cut parts of his answers out to where it looks like hes a monster or something and then post it to the local gossip rags and tabloids

i know how you work chelly, i know

now tell me, who sent you!?

realslimnatey on Feb 22 '07 at 9:51am

or are you just flirting with him!?

cbuchholz on Feb 22 '07 at 9:53am

whoa! I just noticed this blog! I will answer your questions, but I might need a little time to do so, maybe around lunch time. HA HA! This is kind of weird... but fun.

cbuchholz on Feb 22 '07 at 9:55am

first of all, can I just ask you one question? When I'm speaking to Chelly, am I speaking to the male that appears in your gallery photos and avatar, or the female? I'm assuming I'm speaking to the female, since your name is Chelly, but who knows. I don't really know why I need to know this, I guess I'm just curious.

lemonalle on Feb 22 '07 at 9:56am

Chelly is a lady

(omg, he's here!)

realslimnatey on Feb 22 '07 at 9:56am

im tellin ya dude, this broads got issues

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 9:57am

natey stop tainting it

lemon, i know, those are the most important

realslimnatey on Feb 22 '07 at 9:57am

heyyyy, i just answered his question though! im helpin you out

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 9:58am

ahah, chis, worry not. this is just the beginning of several bouts of questions i have for artists. but you seem to be a pretty easy-going fella, so i figured you wouldn't mind.

heck answer them one at a time

also, i'm the chick
the avatar and the product pics are two different dudes

:D

cbuchholz on Feb 22 '07 at 10:00am

ok! I promise I will answer ALL the questions, just give me some time, I've gotta get to work or my boss will kick me in the rumpah!

lemonalle on Feb 22 '07 at 10:01am

*makes feeble nate/taint joke*

realslimnatey on Feb 22 '07 at 10:02am

*yawn*

tell me when someone cool enters the building, i mean, besides cbuchholz, sup bro!?

amy122166 on Feb 22 '07 at 10:02am

while you're at it answer this...

what is your favorite fruit???

because THAT is what I really want to know :)

realslimnatey on Feb 22 '07 at 10:03am

speaking of someone cool, hey amy!

(i hope his answer is cocktail fruit)

amy122166 on Feb 22 '07 at 10:05am

yes, cocktail fruit.....as long as it's the kind with EXTRA cherries :)

HIIIII!!!!!

lemonalle on Feb 22 '07 at 10:06am

nate's so cool... i found another one of his fake accounts

mezo on Feb 22 '07 at 10:11am

Chelly said tainting it. Hehehehehehe.

valorandvellum on Feb 22 '07 at 10:40am

Curiosity bump.

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 11:22am

additional questions????????????

ohyoustealher on Feb 22 '07 at 11:28am

There are actually several designers on here I enjoy who don't do gallery photos and while I assume some of this is attributed to laziness (or I guess we could read it as more time spent on your designs rather than taking pictures of yourself) I am curious. The anonimity kills me sometimes.

valorandvellum on Feb 22 '07 at 11:35am

ohyoustealher, I didn't do gallery pics for a long time mainly because of the anonynmity factor... I preferred people score my designs not knowing what I looked like or even knowing my gender. After people got a feel for my work, I figured it was ok to not be too mysterious :-)

Raid71 on Feb 22 '07 at 11:37am

I don't do gallery picts..... why the camera steals your soul

ohyoustealher on Feb 22 '07 at 11:40am

It wasn't like that before. Cameras only used to steal your soul if you looked into them. Then the emo kids got privy to this and the whole system had to be changed

Torakamikaze on Feb 22 '07 at 11:40am

i remember wondering if valor was a grandpa

ohyoustealher on Feb 22 '07 at 11:42am

oh, and Valor - You have a very valid point. I personally try to score without even looking at who the artist is (some people you just know, but that can't be helped) I am positive some people only vote well on people they like, though. Or worse are the ones who skip new designers all together.

Torakamikaze on Feb 22 '07 at 11:45am

i only vote high on artists with smooth looking elbows

ohyoustealher on Feb 22 '07 at 11:46am

I like your system. Nice elbows do make for nice art

realslimnatey on Feb 22 '07 at 11:48am

it comes with the fame and fortune, i have to hide my stuff now because im so damn popular, lyk omgz!

valorandvellum on Feb 22 '07 at 11:48am

Torakamikaze, that is very possible... if I had a child, they had a child and I got a sex change. Also, I exfoliate my elbows.

jrmasm on Feb 22 '07 at 11:49am

I've noticed that Chris does have a running theme throughout his submissions. "the deconstruction of nature" he destroys a robot in his fist sub, then doesn't address technology at all after. A lot of his subs are trying to explain how things in nature work.

chelly on Feb 22 '07 at 11:51am

good point jrmasm. like explaining it w/o the use of the standards of schooling.

amy122166 on Feb 22 '07 at 11:55am

i only vote high on artists with smooth looking...umm...nevermind :/

valorandvellum on Feb 22 '07 at 11:56am

Ooh, then maybe one of the questions should be if he's aware of this running theme or if it's just in his subconscious...

Torakamikaze on Feb 22 '07 at 11:57am

valor, your elbows like those of a glistening greek demigod

valorandvellum on Feb 22 '07 at 12:02pm

I've found that slathering them in butter has just that effect.

I have a question for jrmasm... how long have you been a creative director?
