Wimblewrong 2023 Round 1 - Ferris vs Poirots BigGarlickyCorpse

[Ferris]

[Ferris]

Spoiler alert

@Poirots BigGarlickyCorpse sorry for the delay!

[close]

[PlanktonSideburns]

Love it

[touchingcloth]

800x600 you risible FUCK. Jeff's leering face shocked my eyelids when I clicked to expand the thing.

Nice entry, once I got over my injury. There's something a bit Discworld about it.

[Poirots BigGarlickyCorpse]

Hmm, yes, much to ponder here.

[touchingcloth]

Post a white rectangle of the correct dimensions and you'll automatically win my vote instead of Ferris. Not sure if anyone else will judge his infraction as harshly as me, though.

[Ferris]

800x600 you risible FUCK.

It's in the right size you dick'ead! I even manually put it in the image size parameters so gobby wankers like you would keep their hair on.

[Cerys]

Nice one ... where 'nice' can be defined as 'made me almost happy to see that cunt's face again'.

[PlanktonSideburns]

Unbeleivable

[Ferris]

its 800x600 in the thread! Some people will never be happy. You'll be down there with Jeff and Captain Tom soon enough.

[touchingcloth]

Oh, well if that's the rules maybe I'll make my next entry out of a grid of thousands of differently-coloured 880x600 rectangles each of which says FERRIS IS IGNORANT OF RULES and then downsize it in the thread to fit.

What do you think this is? Fucking pointilism? What is pointilism you pal? What is pointilism YOU?

hmmmmmm

[selectivememory]

Nice to have my own pit bull this year to zealously enforce the rules so I don't have to.

[Ferris]

Is the rule genuinely that the whole image has to be 800x600 (and not just in thread)? I'm happy to just collapse mine down next time because the shit MS Paint aesthetic is half the "charm".

[selectivememory]

Yeah. I honestly don't think it's that big of a deal as long as they're correctly displayed in the thread, but that is the rule.

[PlanktonSideburns]

Yeah. I honestly don't think it's that big of a deal

Waaaat

[touchingcloth]

Waaaat

This guy. It's not only his memory that's selective, am I right? I'm talking about his enforcement of the sacred rules.

But in all seriousness, I think the _actual_ 800x600 limit is a useful way of maintaining the lo-fi aesthetic as it forces you to work within those dimensions rather than to 'shop unconstrained and rely on knowing that things will be more legible if people click to zoom.

Yeah fair point, that wasn't my intention but you're right that it could get a bit dicey. I'm not gonna bother reuploading mine but will stick with the rule for next time.

My amateurish unfocused dog eggs aren't going to trouble later rounds anyway so it's somewhat moot.

[Poirots BigGarlickyCorpse]

@Ferris

[Cerys]

I truly love that.

[Ferris]

Will get something posted tomorrow, in meetings all day today unfortunately.

[Ferris]

Hahaha! Banger

[Vodkafone]

Nice retro feel to that one

[BlodwynPig]

Saw that on Netscape

[touchingcloth]

Knew that would wind you up. Fantastic.

[PlanktonSideburns]

First thing I did was check your resolution
