I agree with that, and so far you're right about the IC. :)


Dude, pictures are your thing. Do it, I love it. Makes the post not only a good read but also pretty to look at.

People everywhere suck. Trust me, I'm from Detroit.


Detroit? As in "nobody got water here" Detroit? Wow, dude. New respect for those responsibilities you talk about having.

Comic scans tend to help add some visual aid and dynamic to posts in these things from my experience. Plus, it was kind of a Hype thing so I'm glad to appropriate pictures into my post where I can to continue that legacy.

I think I've complained about my upbringing enough in these OOCs, but I agree. People here suck.

Curiously, did you ever hang out with that Mod in person? #HypeReferences


I actually didn't even know MB was from there until after my time, I think. I've never met anyone from the Hype or here in person. When I was in high school still, some of the old guard would talk about meeting up at San Diego Comic-Con. Now that I'm old enough to afford the trip every year, those lazy bums don't attend anymore. *grumble*

Also, I'm all aboard Team Pictures in Posts, as y'all have seen. I've got two 100+ Photobucket albums for Spider-Man and Flash. Heh.

With characters like Hourman that have had a limited number of appearances compared to, say, Batman, it gets difficult to use pics. But I try to go for it when I have time/good options. Also, if you should change your costume description, it makes less sense when you add a graphic aid.

On a similar note though, could you guys make me a banner for Hourman or a PNG akin to EB's Flash thing?

@Eddie Brock Do you remember Red X? His run as Iron Man was the fucking bomb. He had that Iron Man banner picture and would use scans in his posts way before I can remember anybody else doing it. There was something so cinematic to it. It's probably a big reason that I do it now - because thirteen year old me thought it was the coolest fucking shit ever.

Thanks all, just wanted to check. It's gotten to the point where I'm editing the pictures to fit in with the general aesthetic of the site haha I really should be doing uni work. :P

I'm no good at making banners or anything, took me a whole month to figure out how to use pictures here.

Sounds familiar, but I can't quite picture it. In any event, I'm addicted to it. Sometimes I procrastinate writing by looking for a good picture to use, although now I just use Imgur in one-offs rather than saving everything to Photobucket. I remember one time when I picked up Catwoman, MB linked me his PB because he's got sub-folders for, like, all the Bat-characters. Wish I still had that link. I'd plunder the crap out of it.

This. Ultimate Thor is the bane of my existence right now. And finding good Thor quotes for each post's individual Thor quote...

@Nightrunner How does this work? The quality of the picture was really, really bad so it might be a little choppy.

@Eddie BrockWhen I'm like, twenty, or something it might be cool for me to try to see if any of you guys would want to go. Too bad that first generation wigged out on you. That could've been a memory to treasure.

"Hey, remember that time I went and hung out with my friends off the internet that I had never really known if they were who they claimed to be?"

Heck, come to think of it, I really have no idea if any of you (besides Byrd and MB) are zoophiles or pedophiles or anything like that.

Yeah...

I always appreciated MBs use of pictures. It made it feel like someone wrote a picture book the wrong way by using illustrations sparingly, but to maximum effect. The situations were always so specific too. It's a skill I have never developed.

But I've tried experimenting graphically. I've wanted to make a game that would imitate the style of Twitter posts, just to see if it could work. I wanted to try and imitate news articles in posts and, roughly an hour ago, I took a shot at imitating an email's appearance.

I believe @Sep prefers the term pederast.

I prefer the term overly paranoid. You'll never see me in RL. Ever.

But on another note. I was going to get Cap up to keep the roll going. But I've decided to watch justice league unlimited instead. Procrastination is awesome.

That's so much better than the hastily cropped version I rushed out. Use that one.
