Originally in the first few cartoons, William Costello, aka, Red Pepper Sam did the voice. He was fired early on. The voice that is best known is that of Jack Mercer who was an in-betweener at the studio. He was responsible for all the mumbling and asides and the great Popeye laugh. Olive's voice was done by Mae Questel who also did Betty Boop's voice. Gus Wickie did the original voice of Bluto. During the war when Mercer was overseas, Mae Questel did Popeye's voice for 6 or 7 cartoons!

In third grade. And let me tell you, those third-grade cartoons were met with some rave critical reviews.

A9: Our internal research data confirmed that the transferability take rate (available on the 7-year/70,000-mile warranty program) was low. We are providing peace-of-mind to the original owner who made the investment in our Chrysler product. Our competitors, Hyundai/KIA/Mitsubishi that offer what was considered the benchmark in long-term powertrain warranty (10 years/100,000 miles), only extend it to the original owner.

When I was growing up, in the days before Cable and Satellite TV were common, we lived between Rochester and Syracuse, NY and received TV broadcasts from both cities. If the conditions were right, we could also get one from Canada and, once in a great while, a station from Buffalo. This was during the time period when Popeye was the most popular cartoon character on TV and almost every city had at least one station that ran Fleischer, Famous Studios, and/or KFS toons.

Adobe ImageReady, sometimes version 3.0 and sometimes CS. I use it mainly because it has layers and transparency, the ability to save good-quality web images, and it can animate if that's what I want to do, all in one program.

First, I sketch out the cartoon very loosely on paper. I usually have a good idea in my head of what I want, but if I have to illustrate a clients' idea, it may take awhile before I get the idea across in a composition we both can agree upon. Then I tighten up the sketch and depending upon my mood, I will ink it on the paper or overlay a type of tracing paper called vellum, on the drawing and ink on the vellum. Once the cartoon is inked, it is scanned and cleaned up with Adobe Photoshop.

My original versions of FMOCT were written out entirely by hand in raw HTML in Microsoft Notepad. I have since started to use Macromedia Dreamweaver 4.0 with additional hand-scripting for fix-ups. Dreamweaver is a professional piece of software, and is not freeware, so please don't ask me for a copy. You might be able to find a demo at the Macromedia site, or on download.com, but I can guarantee you that it will have a thirty-day or so trial period after which you can no longer use the program.

I use vim to do all of the editing. I use PHP for the dynamic parts (coded by hand in vim). For graphics I use The GIMP. All of the tools are free, Open Source Software.

The site itself is coded by hand in plain ol' Windows Notepad. All graphics - site, skins, objects, etc. - are created with Adobe Photoshop. I use BodyWarp to make UV maps of skin meshes, SimPose to preview my skins, and like the rest of the world, Transmogrifier to clone objects.

The model is Victoria 3 from DAZ 3D, the renderer is Poser 5 from Curious Labs, the apartment is Poser Luxury Apartment I found at Renderosity, also the Hot Tub. Backyard and stores backgrounds are screenshots from Sims 2, and all the street scene backdrops are from Need for Speed Underground 2.
