I swear, the first thing I thought was "runny nose". It reminds me of those commercials for nasal decongestants or whatever where they show an animation of a see-through profile, demonstrating the product at work.

There's not much going on inside this kid's mind.

Arrrrrggguuuhh!!! Get out of my head.

I chose the "like a faucet" option. My first reaction was pretty much, "okay, her brain is a faucet, what's that a metaphor for?"

Thanks for the helpful feedback.

How about... this? (The black area won't be as thick - that's bleed area.)

It still leaves me with an ambiguous sense of intent. Like it is kind of insulting. Thoughts dribbling out one reluctant drop at a time.

Though now it is very clear that the output of the faucet is ideas.

Also, now I'm confused. At some point I apparently decided that Tom is 3894's husband.

Nope. There was even a wedding thread on here three years ago, heh.

Yeah, don't know how it happened. But Helen's huband is a Tom, right?

Ok, I love the image with the lightbulb droplet. I think it's brilliant. Pun intended. :)

The lightbulb definitely add the whole "Ideas on tap" context.
