agree with the text chosen....too hard to read at first glance...
green on the coconut, perhaps a frog zappin a fly with its tongue, perched on the edge..

Viral needs the Bio-Haz symbol!

The Warhol reference reminds me of soup, not his pop-art trip...
A sift with paint splotch action, or Dali jugglin' the kitties, standing inside...

Animation, with the WB logo with Videosift across it.....DANGER! How bout a buncha celluloid hanging from the top, with one frame enlarged and colorized, with a cartoon mallet hitting a head with stars....etc.....?

I wish there was more recent artwork to use for the “art” channel. It’s too bad that recent artists are not household names like Mondrian or Warhol. Works by Takashi Murakami, Damien Hirst or Matthew Barney would probably just stir things up around here. Mixing two art styles would at least suggest postmodernism, 1980’s to the present.

As for the cartoon channel, maybe show the little hand crank as a blur in motion? Or maybe add eyes and a mouth? Big animé eyes?

The green for “viral” makes me think “soylent green.”

I might split the art sifter with half Mondrian and half Warhol soup. Also nature needs more, like a vine on the handle or maybe some grass at the bottom.

They look great though.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

For the Arts channel, it would be fun to dress the Sifter as a Warhol soup can. ;-)
