Hi friends, I am the creator of this video piece.

Thanks a lot to all and specially this is a message for Jake D.

Hi Jake, if you are thinking on tatooing that image on yourbody, please feel free to contact with me at my mail or website and I will supply you with the detailed image.

And then I would post your tatoo photos on my site and blog. It would be a pleasure.

Thanks a lot again!!

I've been thinking about getting Dia De Los Muerto themed tattoos for a while. I'm still considering it. I love the art and the culture behind it, but I'm not Mexican at all, so I don't know if it would be offensive or something to the actual culture.

But I think the image on that video at :26 would look really cool on my back or forearm. :)

Delightful animation and Voltaire music to boot.

I was thinking the exact same thing! :) Man, that game was so much fun to play. I still own the game so I think I'll try playing it later!

I wish sometime in the future I can travel to Mexico just to experience the "Day of the Dead" festival and see the beautiful beaches.
