Yup, semi-cartoon, half-realistic, this mix-style has many names. ;-)

Hm, that's if the signs are just leading somewhere. Maybe they're also 
signs leading you when you are in a certain situation? (Just giving fuel 
to thought... ;-)

Ooooh, there are a couple ones hiding behind the others, which is a 
shame, really. Overall, 50 different things and only a couple dozen are 
really readable.

No, don't worry, constructive criticism is okay! Suggestions, different 
points of view, that's what I try to get when I post things here in the 
newsgroups where people can comment. It's still up to me if I want to 
implement a suggestion or not, I don't feel obliged to obey. ;-)
