ok but

Wait, is that an official SkateBIRD deck, made by @DJSkateCo? Well, gosh. youtube.com/watch?v=hkSRMv6z…

Good thing too. Had it in early enough that we didn't need to worry about Nintendo drawing attention to it when that whole explosion hit.

We had a very, very long figuring-out time for that, and BIRD won by a hair. It was neck and neck. We finally went that way cus it'll be international, and birb doesn't translate. ... everything is still birb though. Even the code calls it skatebirb.

If anyone else needs this, here you go, nicely formatted to past over your Kickstarter top art. Grab the direct download here if Twitter breaks the transparency: dropbox.com/s/u6tn2t3spkldq5…

Wait, wait, being a ding-dong - you CAN change one of the images. There we go, much nicer!

It turned out that they internalize all your images after a game funds, you can't edit them after the fact, but oh hey look at that I can edit the project name

Ah! This was @LordNed's sketch, actually. Anyways it cute too.

So then we were almost there, and @KnuckleCrackle just had to winnow down the variants, and now you see how we ended up with the cool fancy new one! We highly recommend @KnuckleCrackle if you need a faboo birb drawing. And also presumably not-birb drawings. But birbs are better.

So then @KnuckleCrackle went "OH HUH" and then he did more,

All of the above options were @KnuckleCrackle, to be clear. He did TONS. And then @Ed_dV starting drawing birbs too, because Ed can not be stopped.

This was by @KnuckleCrackle, and we shuffled through a LOT of options to arrive at the appropriate level of birbness.
