Je suis Charlie
Dear community :
Yesterday on Wednesday January 7th, some french journalists have been killed because they dared to use a pen and do some caricatures or satirical portrait.
Here at TVPaint, the heart of our job is to provide tools for such artists, journalists, caricaturists, ...
Also many animations were created via our software to illustrate caricatures (look for "cartooning for peace" on the web, you will find some Gobelins 1st year students caricatures work under TVPaint).
As a logical consequence, we are deeply shocked and touched by those events.
Please find below our reaction, beyond long sentences or political/religious comments.
We have received a lot of solidarity message from many TVPaint users from Japan, Israel, USA, Germany, Czech Republic, etc.
Thanks a lot. It's touching.
If you want to say something in this topic : Don't use your keyboard. Please use your stylus and post a drawing to our caricaturist tribute.
"Draw kill"
"My pen has killed me"
"Where is Waldo ?
The answer is "everywhere".
You can't win, guys.
You just can't."
-> in French version, Waldo is named Charlie.
"Why ?"
"Shotgun ?"
"Fundamentalist !"
"It's fucking clear ! Do not destroy life that God made sacred - Sura 17, Verse 33"

Re: Je suis Charlie
Moi aussi je met quelques dessins exprimant ce massacre:
Carlos Latuff, dessinateur brésilien
Boulet : "Ducks will fly always higher than guns"
(In slang French, a "duck" is a newspaper.)
Gary Varvel, dessinateur américain de l'Indianapolis Star
Je trouve aussi que ce dessin résume bien la situation:
A French Pun. "Satire" and "Shooting" are pronounced the same way.

Re: Je suis Charlie
black humor for this one :
"Tribute drawings for Charlie Hebdo are popping on social networks.
So... a pencil against a kalachnikov...
A kalachnikov shooting a pencil...
Again a pencil against a kalachnikov... So imaginative !
A kalashnikov shooting a pencil... But where are thes best cartoonists ?
... Oh... yes... Fuck."
