Default Bloo's design forgotten?

This was on Wikipedia...

"Bloo was intended to be a walking, talking blanket (as seen on the original website), but apparently, everyone forgot about that, including the creators of the show."

What do they mean by that? I always thought the theory of Bloo being a blanket made sense, but how did the creators "forget" that aspect?
Are they referring to some other concept design or webpage? (I want to see it if so, I need ALL Foster's info!)

Its just a badly written statement that should be changed. No-one forgot anything, Bloo's design just changed in development, just like all the other characters

EDIT: I reworked the line to just say "Bloo's early design resembled a walking, talking blanket "

The statement, without a doubt, was definitely biased and not necessary.

Agreed. Thanks for pointing that out, guys. I forget Wiki is less then reliable.

And One, your avatar is so cute, that's got to be one of the best captures of Bloo's expressions ever. Awww...

They just changed it a lot before it was finalised.

Oh dear, Wikipedia strikes again. There's no way you can 'forget' about something like that. Even if you changed the concept completely, you'd still acknowledge that the original concept was there. The whole idea of having an initial original concept is to develop the character further until you get what you want. That's what I thought anyway.

Thankfully, they can be easily corrected

(*ahem* by which I mean: if you see a problem, fix it yourself! Don't just sit on your tush complaining, that's how things get this bad in the first place )

Yeah. The only time I ever did anything on Wikipedia was the day I went into the Foster's section and changed all the "Terrance"s to "Terrence"s. I *could* fix it, so I did.
