    Could it be Cartooners? I have this in my collection but haven't even looked at it yet. It consists of 3 disks, the 3rd of which is labelled "Space Art".

    number of backdrops- so you could pick legs, arms, head, and put it on
    an alien backdrop (surface of moon or something similar) or any number
    of others, and then print it out. I haven't had any success in
    finding it on any lists, especially since I have no idea what it was
    called or who made it, and I figured with all the classic Apple fans
    here, someone might know! If it helps, it was not a free-form drawer
    like kid pix, and we played it at school in our comp. classroom. This
    would have been around 1988.
    Most educational Apple software in the classroom was from MECC and was not generally available retail, so you will have a lot of trouble finding it on mirrors.

    Last year I needed floppies so I trashed all of my MECC educational stuff I didn't think, after two decades, there was any demand for it...

    Could it be Facemaker? Or Facemaker II?

    The asimov mirrors do have a pretty good collection of Mecc stuff, and I have a connection at a school which still has a massive library of mecc things. Massive. I might ask there.

    Arfink, that would be HUGE!! Please do so, and in the meantime, I'm going to pursue anything Mecc I can find.

    Well, haven't found an image, but saw some videos online of people using it- didn't look like it. Any chance you could give it a spin and see if it matches? (the creature creation, etc.?) Thanks!!

    I've got access to a large image library for the apple, I'll check for something resembling it there.

    There wasn't a Print Shop Deluxe for the II line? I was sure there was....I thought I remember using it in school in the 80s. I remember making a huge AC/DC banner with some type of Print Shop software, lol...dot matrix all the way

    Hehe, I checked- no Print Shop seems to have the features I'm mentioning. But hey, give it all a shot if you can!! I really appreciate it.

    Well, I think it might be Jeepers Creatures by Kangaroo, Inc.

    Anyone have this??
