You can still buy them Galaxy Babe, but they're not as common or as popular as they used to be. 
That is a great blob, how did you know it was by Jimster, I've looked and looked and can't see his name on the Entry.

The Community Artist credit is now given in the right hand column instead of floating over the picture. Excellent entry, Emmily!

Fantastic entry, and very interesting, I never knew they had such a puritanic phase in the fifties

I've solved the mystery of why I can't see the 'Illustrated by' I use alabaster, and the new credit tags were designed for Brunel and work perfectly for that skin, but apparently not so good in the other skins.

I always use brunel - the features are so nice that I think they make up for the colours 
Emmily, I'm curious, do you have some of those old postcards at home ?

Maybe it's my age, but I can't stand the bright colours of Brunel, it gives me a headache after a short while, shame really, because I think all new features are being designed for Brunel.
No, I don't have any of the postcards at home.

Awww, shame, it would have been nice to have a few cards from that era, I think. And the brunel colours are very dark, that's why I can't go back to alabaster - it's so glaring that it hurts my eyes.

I can see the credits perfectly well in Goo. It's easier on the eye than Alabaster or Brunel, too.

You can even see the 'illustrated by' credit tag in Plain skin, trust me to pick a dodgy skin.
The trouble with Goo is it's just too...blue. There's no pleasing some people is there.
Goo does have its good points, the pictures/blobs look sharper, but I've just noticed there's some part of my PS that are invisible in Goo, I'll see if I can sort that.
