Fun Facts

Trivia

• This, Main Page 12 and the unfinished duplicate of Main Page 6 are the only Main Pages to still use the old "fat body" style Homestar.
• Homestar's hat is drawn without its trademark propeller.
• This is the only H*R main page that does not have any additional sound effects.

Remarks

Sketchy cursor

• In the .swf, a sketch drawn mouse cursor is visible outside the frame. This could possibly be from a scrapped idea to have a "custom cursor" in this page.
• Homestar's mouth is not animated for the "Store" button due to the Sticky Note over his face. Therefore, activating the "Store" effect and quickly moving the mouse cursor off the button causes Homestar to appear to be talking without moving his mouth.

Real-World References

• is the symbol that represents guitarist Jimmy Page on Led Zeppelin's unnamed fourth album.
• Trapper Keeper is a brand-name seller of American binders and notebooks, most of which are prepackaged with this style of paper.
• The way the pencil lines quiver is similar to the "Squigglevision" animation style.
