Warlock, I have a question for you.

When saving a file to make avatar size, what software do you use? I use PS and I think it sucks. I make the image size small and reduce it to 72ppi, and then save it it at like med and it is still always too big! It pisses me off. Am I missing a trick somewhere in there?

No wait..medium? AH. You are saving in JPG. Make sure you select the smallest area of the image you need, crop as necessary, and save it as a GIF. Less colors, less need for compression loss, smaller image size. And don't forget that in Image Resize you can kick the DPI up to 150, though at avatar sizes it doesn't always help...

... no comment on the possibility of Meatloaf sandwich representing me, Meatloaf and some random, as of yet unnamed, hot chick. Because nobody needs that mental image.

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

And now, I'm going to really tick you off.

I was 18. She was 32, and hawt. (Most of the players in that D&D group were in their 20s and 30s; I was the yoot in the group.)

Coo coo ka choo, Mrs. Robinson.

Nothing says an evening's fun like corrupting the young. ... I believe Socrates said that.


Q: What do you get when you cross Mrs. Robinson with a pokemon?
A: Kookookachu!

 

[hafrogman]

Especially because, technically, it'd place Mr. Loaf in the center of the sandwich.

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Now look what you did to her, Ben!

Makes sense. Thanks

Darnit...another positive attribute among a woman who's always spoken for...hmph...

Now look what you did to her, Ben!

I'll recover.

I'll recover.

Perhaps. Most likely you'll repress it, and then eventually forget. You'll go around living your life in blissful ignorance, until one day, those fateful words will cause you to relapse.

"Woman, make me a sammich!"
