    This is my first challenge and I wanted to try this one first because it sounded fun and interesting. I guess I would have to pick Dino from the Flinstones becuase he was the coolest dinosaur. Can't wait to get started!

    I always loved the end of an episode where Dino throws Fred out the door.  :)

    I think the most amazing Dinosaur was the Velociraptor. It was fast, agile, smart, and brave. :-)

    Rex is the friendly T-Rex from Toy Story. He is still working very hard on becoming intimidating ^_^

    I had a bucket of plastic dinosaurs as a kid. Possibly some of my favorite toys growing up!

    I was introduced to Hackasaurus at the DML Competition, and was very impressed. Hope to give it a spin here.

    I'm still not sure how the filmmakers of the terrible 1993 film "Super Mario Bros." ever thought a highly evolved dinosaur would look like Dennis Hopper, but apparently they did.

    Dennis Hopper is a dinosaur.

    Denver The Last Dinosaur

    Anyone remember Denver from the late 80s? The wikipedia entry is here.

    I thought I give this challenge ago because Hackasaurus looks like fun.

    My favorite dinosaur must be the Trodoon, since it's believed to be the most intelligent dinosaur...

     

    Troodon, a human-sized theropod of the Cretaceous period, has become the poster lizard for dinosaur intelligence. Judging by its predatory arsenal--big eyes, fast speed, and stereo vision--paleontologists believe Troodon must have possessed an especially big brain, "big" in this context meaning about the size of a modern opossum's (which, for its size, still placed Troodon well ahead of other dinosaurs).

    Hello there,

     


    I am here only because it looks really interesting, never actualy heard about Hackasaurus before but once I did a bit of surfing around about it, I have to say it made me really interested. 

     
    My favorite dinosaur of all times has always been Dino - the happy and always running dinosaur of Flinstones... wink

    My favorite dinosaur is the Mozilla dino that was on a donate button a while ago. I don't actually know his name, but he's super cute. I love the illustration style. I'm naming him Mozzie for now :)
