Original illustration of Fail Whale by @yiyinglu . DieFailWhale.com has modified it slightly (adding the "x" over the eyes, removing birds), but it's essentially the same thing so it's important to let everyone know who the real author is.

You can see all the times the Fail Whale has been used on her site www.whatisfailwhale.info

An additional credit should go to the designers and developers of the Twitter website. DieFailWhale.com has borrowed heavily from their design. I don't know who they are, but if you do please let me know so I can include them.

Also, if you're looking through this site and see something that should be credited let me know too. I want to give credit where credit is due.

Alright, that's it...

I offered to trade this game for my website, but Die Fail Whale said no. Now I'm sad. *
