Not too awful for a first attempt?

Cheers to the self proclaimed non-swearing Boris for showing a newbie how to look like an total prick and be helpful at the same time.

thats not very fluffy

( Sheehan forevermore owes Ttssattsr beer, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:46, archived)

no
but it is true

and i also woo the pic now
( Earl Otterby Goodbye and no thanks for the fish, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:47, archived)

more or less justified though
filesize nazis really annoy me but there's no excuse whatsoever for that picture being 381k. that's just simple fucking laziness and he can piss off.

sorry
It's not that big, is it?
(Nifty, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:47, archived)

see below :)

( Sheehan forevermore owes Ttssattsr beer, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:49, archived)

381k
Which makes it 7 1/2 times bigger than it should be.
But it's a good pic.
( Mstandot, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:50, archived)

the recommended size for a still image is 50kb
have you tried reading the FAQ?
Other than that, very nice welcome!
( Sheehan forevermore owes Ttssattsr beer, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:46, archived)

Well, as nobody else is doin it, yeh that's a pretty reasonable first attempt I reckon, well done,
and if you tell us what package you're using we can tell you how to make it board size!

*edit* and we got there in the end! I'll give you a now! ;)

here you are

34k, precious little degredation of image. try learning how to fucking optimise in the future you lazy prick.


edit: but to tone it down a bit, it is actually a very nice job. that's still no excuse for being sloppy right at the last minute.
(boris the spider, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:49, archived)

Well, the excuse, or explanation at least, may be that he don't know how yet...
just sayin.
( WiL laser raped the cat, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:53, archived)

yeah maybe
but i'm in a really bad mood. i'll unignore him a few weeks from now.

( Sheehan forevermore owes Ttssattsr beer, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:51, archived)

Depends if everybody's gay.

Was that the real reason that photographer asked Her Majesty to take it off?

Would you care for some fluff, Sir?
I believe you require some.
( Mstandot, Tue 27 May 2008, 18:55, archived)

Woah
I did that before I saw what you did. Chill out.

Is OK matey, you're getting there,
we just have a very very steep learning curve here, like practically vertical...

I know,
I feel a bit for guys lke this, 'cos he is listening and trying, and it looks like there's at least some ability there an'all for a change...

bad day?
I'm new here too, and i'm incredibly thankful nobody overreacted like you have done when i posted my awful seamy made in paint images the other week. Perhaps you should read the FAQ, specifically this bit - "Please don't be horrible to other people just because they are new, or you didn't like their picture, or posted something that bothers you. If you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything."
