Do Caricatures Impress You as Wallpapers?
May 5th, 2009 | by akumar |It is widely acknowledged that strip cartoons in newspapers are so immensely popular that certain readers only buy certain newspapers in order to follow the adventures of their favorite cartoon characters. Inspired by the fact above, some designers of wallpapers start to consider the possibility to present caricatures as mobile wallpapers. From your own perspective, what if caricatures performed as your mobile wallpaper instead of other pictures like animated cartoons?
There are several reasons behind the belief that wallpapers of caricatures would develop their own downloads markets. Caricatures are neither subtle nor unkind. Their appeal rests largely on the fact that ordinary readers can identify with them—the “nobody” in the office, the ups and downs of life, and even washing machines, vacuum cleaners which frequently seem to have a will of their own. Weary commuters battling with public transport, harassed housewives, lowly clerks and secretaries, those diligent individuals who don’t live glamorous and exciting lives can laugh at themselves in these cartoons.
Political cartoons are essentially topical. Their wit mirrors the absurdities prejudices of society and blunders in law and order and current affairs. Even “somebody” of prominent may be mercilessly caricatured. Perhaps, wallpapers of critical caricatures with implied meanings will provide an endless source of amusement.
It cannot be denied that the spread of wallpapers designed via caricatures is arduous. We can not make sure whether downloads amount would be large enough even if knowing that there must be someone who likes them. Much more attempts and trials are needed before batches of new wallpapers of caricatures are released.
We would like to hold an optimistic view that wallpapers expressed by caricatures would be a success, while noticing the challenges they face. After all, diversified wallpapers will mushroom one after another, thus many of them will definitely find favor in your eyes.
