Dang, still no worky. Tried paint, tried adobe, even tried word. The pic is a gif; could that be what's screwing me?
For some reason it wasn't working for me yesterday. I couldn't paste into Paint. It's working today, though. Yesterday what I did was just press Print Screen and copy the whole page into Paint then cut it out.
some flickr pictures have anti-copy protection on them fyi
You can still get the by copying the whole page and just cutting it out in Paint, though.
[quote=Slade;931767]I hate... this font... so much. But I really like the picture of the innocent young boy. it's a good one.
Yeah, the first one I did in that post with the boy is my favorite so far. I think the text (both style and color) look really good with that picture.

Article: Some mathematical thing that I don't really understand.
Quote: I closed the window. :(
Cover: A hummingbird.
Band: It'd definitely be a post-rock (or maybe experimental rock) band.
Article: Again, some type of mathematical term I know nothing about. What are the chances? :dunno:
Quote: "I've done the calculation and your chances of winning the lottery are identical whether you play or not." Fran Lebowitz
Cover: Some guys playing football.
Band: When I got the article, I thought of an alternative/indie rock band. Then I got the picture and the quote, and I figured the band would be an indie rock band made up of passionate football geeks.
All right, I finally got it. Posted it on a board I help moderate... apologies, my paint skills are ****e. Still can't figure out url's on here either. Sorry. Just shoot me now and put me out of my e-misery please.

"****" are Sierra Hotel India Tango. The "Echo" (e) gives it a British twang, so to speak. Danged censorship.
If you make 7 more posts on the main boards you can post urls/images. Might be worth the investment!
Yeah, what up with that? DA posts don't count? They should count dubba. Maybe trippa.
I'll have to bust out the ol' Mega Man (nostalgia, ya dig?) and come up with some thoughtful questions to post. Like, why don't Mega Man games have more dickgirls?
bump... this is getting quite a bit of action over on the RRF (see linky above)
Some pretty cool submissions!
posting so I don't have to keep manually fixing the url
