Are you deaf?
Don't tell me things like that, I'll cast aspersions. Damn League of Gentlemen.
edit- was that just a really unsupportive thing to say?

Pfft, I think not.
If the liquid latex paint stuff stuck properly, I'd well paint it over half my head (lower half, not including nostrils) and go to TG.

I used bondage tape for that once. Twas fun.
Problem is when you get smoke in your nose and sneeze, and for the rest of the night you don't realise you're dribbling snot all over your chin.

Depends.
I would have to see a picture. Preferably a naughty one.

I thought you'd already seen one and murmured approval?
Might have been a while ago though.

I really wish Fraser would write a list of disclaimers
and things to avoid. Like 2 second MSPaint jobs

which bit?
I just get fed up of the repetition of obvious things like a quick scribble of orange over a famous head. Well crafted shopped hair I can deal with, but flat colour in 2 seconds is a bit of a rum deal

Sorry, but applying orange in MS Paint to a picture is not good.

I disagree,
I like it a lot - the simplicity adds something to the image I feel.
Certainly it is subjective.

yes
but there is one missing in WONT
so it's sort of karmic punctuation

I am recently of the opinion that b3ta should scrap the weekly image challenge
as it just pollutes the board with crap* and pushes all the good stuff off.
Either that, or contest entries should have their own dedicated board.
*obviously there are some great image entries, but many, many more shit ones.

We have crap and good stuff on the board regardless of compo entries
and if we didn't have crap, we'd have nothing to measure the good stuff against.

That's OK though, isn't it?
If we encouraged the less talented people instead of shouting 'Fail' and similarly hurtful things, we might improve the overall standard of the board.
Many of us, me included, were rubbish when we started here and have benefited from friendly B3tans giving encouragement and/or constructive criticism.

You are right on that
but the problem seems to be that the vast majority of people who are crap don't actually take our advice.
They consistently post bollocks on the board with massive filesizes, and ignore any attempt to help them.
That's when the 'FAIL' pictures come out.
I agree though, b3ta should be more fluffy, and I'm not helping :(

but its people that just do not give a shit about b3ta at all
that cannot be bothered to look down 4 inches to see that people just sticking ginger wigs on any old picture are getting flamed. And that do not listen when given friendly advice.
That's ok - mine will be much better!1!!11oneoneone

That's a fair point
But there are a lot of people who don't understand things very quickly.
You're right that there are people who are just annoying and ignore advice but we feed them by giving them attention.

Good point well made
I'll still mock the failers though. Tis the B3ta way!

but image challenges encourage 'easy' opportunities for people that wouldnt normally bother posting
like this one - put a ginger wig an any old picture and post it, seems to be the order of the day.

And If the board only allowed good stuff
then new people would never post and learn/improve
and B3ta would stagnate
I wellcome new talent

I completely agree
my point is that the image challenge encourages a much larger percentage of '20 second mspaint' type efforts - and depsite constant moans and suggestions from other members about the shitness of it all - no one seems to pay a blind bit of notice, and continually posts the same shit over and over.

unfortuantely not.
Another suggestion - have the image challenge starting mondays and ending wednesdays, so at least we have a a few days where the board isn't full of identikit crap.

It's a thought.
But a shorter amount of time in which to create the entries would just make people think they have to rush shit out, wouldn't it?
Mind you, people think that already, so it won't be much of a difference ._.

Announce the subject of the challenge on say Monday
but prevent any entries until say Wednesday

Good point
I don't know if it seriously bothers many people though - or just a vocal minority. Hmmm... maybe I should do another survey...
And thanks Mugatu for starting an interesting discussion. :)

To be honest I'm not all that bothered.
I do get a bit annoyed with streams of shit posts - but b3tans make it better by replying to the shit posts with funny posts. FAIL pics, funny comments or just plain reposts can make a useless thread worthwile.
Although I sometimes think it'll be funnier if shit posts didn't get any replies or attention at all. Just sunk to the bottom of the board, completely disregarded :D

I agree
I haven't liked the image challenge for a while - notably the dire top trumps one and the 'years too late' 9/11 one.
They're as annoying as bandwagons now.

I'm for scrapping.
If the challenge is crap, people still feel compelled to post crap for it even though they know it's crap. Why? Why don't they spend some time on it and make it good, or just not post it at all?
