Extreme Pumpkins and Others

Okay, it's almost Halloween so naturally I have to tell you about a pumpkin site or two. Remember when carved pumpkins were just a couple of triangle eyes, a nose (maybe) and a jagged mouth? The carved pumpkins of Extreme Pumpkins ( http://www.extremepumpkins.com ) are more .. well, I might say manly, but after looking at the puking pumpkin perhaps gross is the better word. Visit a gallery of unusually carved pumpkins, get carving advice and some tool tips, and see what a pumpkin looks like when lit from inside by a road flare.

If you want a pumpkin that's just as untraditional and a little more artistic, check out the over 250 free pumpkin patterns available at CarvingPumpkins.com. ( http://www.carvingpumpkins.com ) Yes, you too can have a
pumpkin carved like Bob Marley. And then there's the wonderfully-named Attack of the Zombie Pumpkins ( http://pumpkins.goateestyle.com/ ) which features a wide variety of pumpkin stencils ( Bono?), carving tips, and a gallery.
