the cute rejected!

ok so i sent in a few pics of rusty and forrest (as a teeny baby) to cute overload, which, if you've never seen it, is just a collection of incredibly adorable little animals (mainly animal, but also cute products, cute drawings, etc.). as you can see here, the pics i sent in are EXTREMELY CUTE (EC). i mean, a little dog with his tongue out? mr. winkle couldn't have done any better! and a quarter sized turtle? c'mon, she's like a little miniature of a real turtle (or was, 'cause now she's a monster). however, whether it be by accident (co has been having email problems) or by snubbery, i never got an answer back! there was a long thread of people who said they were never answered, and i went to one person's website to see the pic he claimed made you go awwwwwwwww.
AND IT DID MAKE ME GO AWWWW! geez people, these are the types of pictures that make me coo at my monitor! the kitty is soooo cute! thanks so much to joel, who let me take the pic of his little buddy from his website. joel too appreciates that which is cute, so he's been taking our cute overload rejected photos in a series he likes to call Even CO was speechless! looks like there's going to be more people sending him pics, so check out his blog of cute overload's overload :)
