Hello all! I was Allie's friend and partner at Snicker Doodles and will try to answer your questions. First off, Allie would love it if she knew the tubes are still being used, that is why they were made and were never intended to be hid away. Please feel free to use them in your work, we do ask as we always did that the Snicker Doodles watermark/copyright not be removed and that credit be given. Some were made by me and some by Allie, our styles at the time were similiar and at times we weren't sure who made which one so just credit Snicker Doodles. Please don't add them to any collections for profit or claim them as your own. Pretty basic TOU's, we wanted people to use the tubes and saw little sense in creating them for people and then sticking a ton of TOU's on them so please enjoy them.
The site is closed. The server very kindly, in memory of Allie, kept the site open for 1 yr after her death free of charge. At that time it was closed.
I can't offer the tubes since due to a major computer crash about six months after Allie's death I lost all of them and kept putting off downloading them from the site again, unfortunately I let time get away from me and didn't get them before the site closed. I am not sure my heart would have let me put them back up anyway. All that remain are a few that were never released that I was still working on at the time and had in another computer.
Thank you all for the kind words about Allie. She was a wonderful artist and one of the bravest funniest people I ever knew. We spent many late night hours discussing life, art, family and anything else that came to mind. I so miss those long talks with her. She was scared of the surgery but she faced it like she did the rest of her life, with dignity and the peace of knowing she was doing what she felt was best for her beautiful daughter and the husband she loved.
Please....enjoy the Snicker Doodles tubes as much as we enjoyed making and offering them to you. Take extra special care of my little crows, they were always my favorites!
