Kara: I'll agree it's not pro work, but I'll tell you I bursted laughing when I saw your nice ceral, lol. I wish they'd made it. so, in short I liked it a lot .
Grave, if your objection is out of shame, I will post a link (in the links) to scans of my lousy sketchbook (non SC related) as a payback for yours.
I pet animals, I rescue insects, I hug trees.

hmmmmmmmm sucky charms, interesting concept. I wonder...................nah that would get me in trouble. That gives me an idea for a commercial, that would be something cool to put on the net. If your interested let me know and I'll send the idea to you or post it here.
I like to scare small childeren, it's fun and as long as you can out run the parents you can get away with it.

Go for it. I've never used Flash or anything similar, so I could never make such a thing.
I can see the commercial now,
Three people sitting in their cubes eating their sucky charms. All of a sudden the a call comes in and all you here is this high pitched, fast paced whining about bills and payments for his cell phone account. Then another call comes in and this time it's someone bitching about their cable bill. then see the thrid person sitting their with the phone on mute eating away listening to the customer gripe about the comapany. And the voice over comes on saying"For all of those who work with customer's remember theres always Sucky Charms. Because no matter where you work the customers will always suck(insert slogan)" Or a little chibbi kara inserted

Anyway, I dismissed the idea as silly. Now my creativity lobe is getting all itchy.
Don't dismiss it!!!! I wish I had one of those creative-lobe thingies! I say use it if you got it!
I love the Sucky Charms, I was thinking after reading that post that someone was bound to make a visual representation

I'm already compiling a list of characters. The four in the picture I already made, plus a few others. A deli/bakery type person, a barista, a bartender, a chef, a wharehouse worker named "Samurai Mike" (a character I thought of for a spoofy kind of story I never got around to writing about the wacky world of retail), a delivery driver, a fast food worker, just all the different aspects of customer service as a whole and different little independent storylines that will (knowing me) likely evolve into some grand intertwined epic. Oh, also, a guy who works in the housewares department that carries a shotgun and chainsaw (I couldn't resist).
I'm not promising this will ever go anywhere, even just past a crop of ideas, just kind of playing with it now. I want to finish the current story I'm writing first, but I'm giving more and more consideration into taking this silly little thing and trying to do something with it. Even if just for random amusement.
I say go for it, Kara. At the very least for our amusement but it may open up some real opportunities for you. Now that the world is online people really have a chance to find audiences who appreciate their work. (Of course, in some cases that's not a good thing!) Anyway, we'd all love to see more.
Gravekeeper, it goes without saying that we're all on pins and needles awaiting your first art posting!

Just don't forget the supermarket cashier! XD Most of us have a psychopath just dying to be let out from the murky part of our minds. At least, I do.
Oh, don't worry. I worked at a grocery store for 5 years and held positions as bagger, cashier, front end supervisor, grocery clerk, meat market (it was gross, but I was doing whatever they asked to build up brownie points so they couldn't refuse me when I asked to go to Video), night crew (again, for leverage), Video (it worked ) and finally Assistant Manager of Video. There are oodles and oodles of stories to be harvested from those days.
