# Well
I'm just wondering how many people will have the audacity not to draw the whole thing themselves using only paper and pencil.

For this compo.

# Because all else is just sheer laziness.

# ok then
seems a bit of a harsh rule, especially when there are so many source photos to start with, but there you go

# I'm just trying to find out if he misread what I put
like I was having a go at people photoshopping, when what I thought I clearly said was that I imagine some people will just do screen grabs of the film and post them, seeing as it encapsulated the theme of this weeks challenge so succenctly.

# In that case he assumed (as did I) that you meant it in a critical manner

# but barry's picture isn't a screengrab from the film?
I'm very confused. On seeing Barry's picture I commented on how Watchmen would be an easy source for simple screen grabs or unshopped pictures found on the internet due to its opening sequence.
And from that I was being critical of Barry?

# It was judgemental, condescending criticism for anyone thinking of using a screengrab from Watchmen.
You may as well have said "I wonder how many people won't post stuff as good as mine."

# fuck off did I!
If you think that of me then thats your call.
You clearly think I'm some kind of cunt and no amount of reasoning on my behalf is going to change that.
It was condescending of anyone simply posting an unshopped/unaltered image that they found off the net yes, same as anyone on here is when they ask "is that shopped?" But bollocks was I being superior in any way.
Seriously mate, we've been through this before, you don't like me so just put me on ignore and save me the drawn out trying to get to the bottom of things.

# You might not have meant it like that
but it can be interpreted as such, and it's a touchy subject to some.
Chill.

# Its not personal. I think you're a good artist.
But being condescending through speculation seems a bit ... well ... pointless at best, and judgemental:

"I wonder how many people today are going to be idiots?"

But if you fancy putting me on ignore, feel free.

# I think if you take HappyToasts online personality into accoount
you should realise he's pretty unlikely to have meant that

# Yeah like all that photography stuff that some people get so hung up on...
