I seem to be a bit blurred though... Your original image seems to be 74 x 90 pixels, so I think its been strecthed a bit for display seems to be 100x100. After all this time I've only just noticed teh custom tweak to your own image. Completes the outfit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks but even the good life can't tempt me atm, for my mind is on finishing a new HPC tribute T-shirt this evening (Really am). Going to switch my avatar for it, if it turns out right. 3 stage fade market-weary design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it must have automatically re-resized a cropped and resized version of my original upload. It took me a while to find out how to change it on the current site, but now you get a very fancy interface for cropping uploaded profile photos to a square...

It's a renter-saver, and we made that T-shirt together alongside kids, but it's a girly shirt and she looked better in it. I planned to wear a new design HPC tribute T-shirt for a new pic/avatar and out-and-about, but the design process was a massive fail this time. Gone into the bin. Link to T-shirt fail.

Thanks One_percent, but it's just not right at all... it's just a big fail vs the 'look' / actual theme I was going for. Was going for a combo tribute HPC T-shirt, and, tribute Faith (Slayer) shirt. (Faith: Damaged, violent and unpredictable) - didn't get it this time, but going to reattempt for fun in near future. That guy on the left, hassling her, gets dealt with in this scene. Oh well. Totally o/t sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, when you start talking about a "three stage fade" then I appreciate the depths of my ignorance of the subject. I can see what you're trying to achieve with that 62 t-shirt; now that would look excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One-percent Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Why oh why when I try to quote a particular post, the forum randomly chooses an alternative post. Just tried to quote spy and ended up with a quote from durhamborn. I don't mind per se as I agree with his sensible POV, but really, I am old enough to decide who to quote. started last night with this strange behaviour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's code for not willing to give me any more white girl shirts to the cause. Also was the try where we realised just what to do next time to get closer to the effect we wanted, when come to do my own hpc tribute shirt (for fun). Pic below; Just come out of its 3rd wash cycle, so needs to dry. Lighter colours when dry. Forum is running super smooth. I like it. Like the new avatar as well Scunnered.

My sister used to go round the festivals selling handmade tiedyed harem pants/trousers. I wish she did a more respectable job, like selling heroin to under aged kids.

I think it happened when I started to reply to someone (including a quote) then decided I couldn't be bothered. The next time I made a post, the quote from the abandoned post appeared unexpectedly. Also, things seem to have been very slow again over the last couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
