What we have here, folks, is a new classic. It's simple, clean, and honest. So there!

The title sounds like it should be shouted by girls in tank tops and short pleated skirts: fish! united! swans reflecting! or else!

In the thumbnail view especially, the result is overwhelmingly phallic.
Very tight corpse, congrats all.

Except for the fact that it's "untied" - not "united"; the cheer is awesome. (Actually, as an advocate for "catch and release", I like "Fish! Untied!" even better.)
Anyway (stepping away from my pedantic mode - sorry...) it's a great corpse with great title.
I particularly like the shadow from the string and the depth it creates.

Thanks, FogBaron, for seeing and noting my shadow. Also that it is "untied" although both cheers are really fun.
I was anxious to see this one. It was refreshing to receive such a minimalistic slice, to create something really clean (it's so easy to overdo it with all that the software puts at our disposal), and a bit unnerving to pass on the same minute amount of clues. I almost wished I could contact Muggy to say something like "sorry" and at the same time "isn't it liberating?"
The thumbnail is rather, ummm, orgasmic.

Hey, who posted this upside-down?

Oh, gosh, that's a nice one.

Very very nice, and it couldn't be more phallic if everyone tried. What a cool little development.

Based on contextual and behavioral factors, I believe I've identified the creature at the lower right--it's the infamous Lounges Lizardus fish...

There is nothing about girls in tank tops and short pleated skirts except for those that see something phallic. Which I don't. Simple, clean and honest. Four stars ****

An Exquisite Corpse is a collaborative experiment in the creation of visual art through the tapping of the collective unconscious...
