    The look would have been perfect if she had done her neck/collarbone as well. Still, well done. #pixelface

    Not to be overly geeky here but this looks more like 16-bit rather than 8-bit due to the number of colors. Regardless, a classic look. #pixelface

    @quadrant6: I would have to agree, though the blocks are what give it the 8-bit concept. Still, it was not until the Amiga that the number of colors and shading that she has could have been rendered on a reasonably affordable computer.

    The challenge for next year is someone to create a costume giving the original monochrome Macintosh look. #pixelface

    I had to go to this girl's blog and see what she really looks like. I'm actually surprised at how much the make-up distorts her appearance. I dig it. I dig her too. (Not restraining-order dig her, but I dig her.) #pixelface

    This 8-bit fad is becoming like steampunk - it was great at first, but it's getting a bit overdone.

    Those jagged edges wouldn't be that good. I used to use something like this when I worked midnights, and any little light matters. Mine said "Can't sleep, clowns will eat me...."

    @YoSoyHe-Man!!_GitEmSteveDave: haha was this a Simpsons reference or an Alice Cooper one?


    either way, I'm really surprised I recognized it.

    Another missed branding opportunity--these should have been named "Pixel Peepers".
