Default anybody know where these pics are from?
Really sorry if this is the wrong thread.
I have had the attached pictures in my screensaver folder for many years. Downloaded a whole series from the internet some years ago.

I think they are pretty funny and creative.

That sounds right. Is there a website for this? Googling found nothing of significance.

Thanks for clearing this up.
