Hey - I resemble that remark! :)



Now I'm hesitant to post a totally shameful pic of me having that drink in Vegas for Skiman! WTH - I'm going to post it when I get home, anyway...

Oh yeah, and bald men ARE sexy!
Brunette hair is cool, but mine is kind of like, a sandy dark blonde mousy brown and I know that's a really weird description but trust me, it's not very pretty.

Yeah, more pictures!
 
This is what I've been saying. I think it's lame to say 'no photoshopping.'

Photoshoping "responsibly" should be encouraged imo.


Shell made a blanket no photoshopping "rule" which I have asked her to amend in this thread. Not sure if she's paying attention though. :dunno


Hi Shell! :wave
...and this quote above coming from the guy who complained the most about photoshopping.

You may want to re-read my post and get your facts right, in fact I'll help:



Really Shell???

You and I both know that the reason I complaned is not because of photoshoping in general. I complained because certain photoshops were not responsible. So I am the perfect one to call for appropriate photoshops. I feel that I bear a large portion of the negative feelings associated with this thread, and I have been trying my darndest to make up for that. Take this post for example:


Here's the other Devilshopped image of me:
Cloud_LeiaDevilstamp.jpg

This one tends to be more popular. The only thing that's mine is the head. Haha.
See photoshops like this are great. I don't think we should have a ban on them. I think we should go back to common sense self censuring. :dunno


:lecture


I see Devil666's latest shop was deleted. I knew it would be.

I seriously love this thread, and I would be very sad if it was closed. :(

I love the humor here, but can we all make an effort to censor ourselves to a degree? :peace





[Not picking on you Devil (you rule :rock), it's all of us...]
Wise words.

While I personally love reading this thread I'm getting tired of seeing it degenerate into inappropriate and offensive postings.
Please keep on topic or it will be locked.
Thanks all


:exactly:



What do you think Shell?




Here's your post again:


The thread is being re-opened.
In order for it to stay open, please do not:

  • Mis-use people's photograph's, not everyone wants to be photo-shopped.
In respect of the latter, maybe as a sign of the times we should now also have a 'Want to be Photo-Shopped' thread?.
It seems more people are using this and while some are incredibly funny, not everyone wants their photo/s to be altered.


I don't want to get into a debate about semantics, but when you said "Mis-use people's photograph's", and then finished the sentence with "not everyone wants to be photoshoped" it really sounds like the "misuse" is referring to photoshoping in general. Especially when the next sentence is suggesting a different 'Want to be Photo-Shopped' thread.

If that's not what you meant, than I'm truly glad!




If anyone wonders why I was unhappy with the photoshop of me in particular. Think about it.

What kind of photoshops have we seen in here?
  • Complimentary photoshops, like the one of Cloud as Slave Leia.
  • Silly photoshops like Irish Jedi as a Leprechaun.
  • Purely awesome photoshops like the one of the freaks dancing at the Club with Darklord Dave as the DJ. Everyone loved that!!!
  • Photoshops that poke fun.
The most extreme 'poking' fun one I can think of is the one with Bamboota giving a lap-dance to Nicholas Cage. Everyone knows that Bam hates Cage, and that's why it's funny. The last person she would do that to would be Cage. No one would look at that gif and think "yeah I bet she did that.' So even though it was a teasing photoshop, I think it was in the bounds of "appropriate.'


Now I am going to get personal. Not sure if everyone here knows this whole story so I will provide a brief synopsis:

A certain female member posted a picture here that was both beautiful and artistic. It was only of her face. In reply to the pic I said: "Beautiful. Instantly saved to hard drive." Those are the words that I regret posting on this site more than any others...

A number of members commented my post was "creepy." And I get why they would say that. It wasn't long before a photoshop popped up of me petting my pet rabbit, except the rabbit was replaced by the female members picture, and I was surrounded by used kleenexes and hand lotion. So the joke is that 'Maglor saved the pic to his hard drive so he could wank to it.' Okay, that's a funny joke but the problem is that many members ran with that as being plausible, saying things like 'sadly, that's probably about right'. The internet is filled with people who would do just that. [Although they probably wouldn't announce that they saved the picture to their hard drive and they wouldn't use a picture that was only a face.] The fact that that was never my intent doesn't matter because, you all don't know me. For all you knew, maybe I am one of those creeps. Therefore the joke was to close to being plausible to be appropriately funny.

While at least I didn't think it was funny :lol and I made the mistake of expressing my displeasure. Rather than the comments stopping, the photoshop was upgraded to a gif that included a picture of my face with semen photoshoped all over it. Very tasteful and responsible indeed... -__-


When I talk about "common sense self censuring", I would like to think that the difference between the kinds of photoshops I listed above and the kind of photoshop I just described would be self evident...
 
Before anyone else posts this, I would like to reply to the above post with the following:


:violin:violin:violin
 
But, seriously..i don't think you are creepy Mag, who cares if you saved pics off here(aren't you married though?,still not my business), big deal..the person posting pics of themselves should be well aware that other users could save their pics, and really should have no problem with it.

Who gives a ____ right?, i am sure people were just jerking with you though.

Oh and also, :lecture one thing I've learned the hard way here at this site is that nobody likes a drama queen. That was pretty much why I stopped posting, because my life was getting way too dramatic.
