Monkeys, vultures, Islands and ..uhm... screensavers

Enjoyed the Maniac Mansion stuff? Felt that nice fuzzy adventure related nostalgia thingy? Thought of creating a huge shrine where Pirates, Governors, Monkeys and Penthouse Pets will daily sacrifice ripe bananas? Care for more classic Lucasarts related stuff? Yes? Great! Absolutely fantastic...

Now, then, listen very carefully. Focus on Monkey Island. It was the funniest and most beautiful adventure ever designed, only to be bested by its Dream Sequence featuring sequel, wasn't it? (Don't bother answering, it was; this was a rhetorical question, apparently) Want some beautifully animated and definitely free Monkey Island screensavers? Wallpapers too?

Simple. All you have to do, oh most beloved readers, is send me 15 euros, bake me a cake, adopt a gnome, stop major wars and then follow these lovingly selected links:

  4. Well, Mr. Elderly, all you have to do is mail Unicef and arrange for a travel to the land of the Arican gnomes (that would be in Africe, Nigeria probably)... Lots of orphan gnomies there...

    Ross, behave! Stop terrifying the elderly...

    Tim W. glad you enjoyed it my friend. I'll try :)

  7. Pirates? Ghosts? Monkeys? Ticks all the boxes... I've no idea what this is about but I like the pictures... Actually, that just about summs up my book-reading history...
