When I did the tile above, I figured this one had something to do with the 11th. Put similar words associated with the date.. and one big one which will surely fit. Nice tile.

Thank you. Actually, the words have nothing to do with anything real at all.
I wasn't sure sure how well this tile would be received, since it is a little different to all the others, and the title of your tile certainly sounds a little perplexed. I hope it wan't too terrible an experience :).
My justification is that this site seems to be rather sharply divided between the cartoonists and the photomanipulators. I just wanted to remind everyone that there are other styles out there.

Re: Re: :)
Hmm, actually my way of dividing the types of art is:

BAD:
ugly, pixellated, copy pasted, bright cartoonish colors (bright solid colors should be used sparingly, IMO...)

GOOD:
Nice composition, not too confusing, not attention grabbing, blends well, good choice of colors, pleasing to the eye, smooth, sleek, all things artistically good. ;)

Then again, that's just my opinion. Some people seem to think bright cartoon colors are good, but I certainly can't stand them. Your tile goes in the "GOOD" pile. I have a style classification too, but that's a long list... photos, really surreal like if you have no idea what the artist drew, most tiles have recognizable objects.. there's stylized realism, realism, realistic cartoon style (see Tonchy's happy fish.)... Tiles with text... It's really hard to classify them all.
