SWF Group Picture Project_____________________

I've been thinking lately on how much this site means to me. Sure, I haven't been on SWF for too long and its just a website about a series of video games, but the community here is becoming pretty special to me. I know, I know...I sound pretty sappy right about now. But hear me out. There are so many good memories here and bad memories too. We've seen members leave and new members join us. We've celebrated and we've despaired. But we're a community unlike any other. So, to honor this...

The SWF Group Picture project! (For artists and non artists alike)

Official Description_____
(Will be reiterated in the rules)
Use the given file and add a picture, a photo, words, etc. It could be you, a description of something that happened on the site, fun memories of SWF, why you like SWF, etc. And remember, sign your name and send the file to one of the 'ringleaders' either with a URL or through a file send on email/IM.

Rules and Guidelines_____

♦ Basically, just add a picture, words, etc to the given file and sign your name (either your username or what you go by here on SWF).
♦ The picture or words could be about a memory here, a funny moment, yourself, your avatar, etc. We prefer if you draw your own pictures to make it more personal, but you can CopyPaste if you really need to. BUT PLEASE give the original artist or whoever credit SOMEWHERE in this thread.
♦ Do NOT erase other people's work PLEASE.
♦ Ask before moving other people's work if you need to move their piece.
♦ Send your finished file to one of the leaders(Just gotta make sure all rules are followed)
♦ FOLLOW GLOBAL RULES PLEASE.
♦ Please, extend the file dimensions when needed. But dont stretch the picture so its like...10000x10000 with only a little portion taken up. That'd just be annoying.
♦ ...SIGN. YOUR. NAME (username or name you go by here. We wanna recognize where you are in the pic!). THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PARTS.
♦ Note: your piece CAN be your name written all fancy and decorated. Heck, it could be just a signature and a little note or something. We just want the community to take part in this in any way!!
♦ Rules can change, be added/deleted, etc at any time. So be aware!
♦ One person at a time, please. Just post to sign up and you'll be added to the list
♦ We don't want to hear "Well...I can't draw..."! It doesn't matter! We're not here to judge you! This is a community project, and we just want the community to take part ♥
♦ NEW RULE!! Well, this was brought to my attention (Thanks Red the Ghost!!). Since it's a .jpg file, you can send the picture to one of the leaders and we'll add it to the main piece wherever you want it put OR I can email the picture to you in a different format (i have a .bmp and .PNG version saved, also)

This is an awesome idea. I'll definitely add something soon. Once an idea comes to me. :p (Do I need to do anything else than just post?)

Also, seeing as you're using a jpg file, I can imagine compression problems with people not using higher settings and the image coming out badly if you let everybody edit the main image. Why not just let people edit onto a new canvas and point out a general location, so one of you can arrange it? It'll be harder, but it'll probably come out better that way.

Thanks so much! I'll add you to the list right away! And no you don't (simple, amirite? xD)

True true. That could work out better. Thanks for the input!! I'll edit that into the rules right away! Thanks!

The rules from OP said:

If one were to do that, would it be necessary to wait in a line?
I mean, if I draw my part for this, would I have to send it to you only once I'm the first one in line, or could I send it earlier and then be added into the final picture at the correct time?

But yeah, I'm up for this!

That could work xD Thanks for pointing that out! We're still working out minor details, so thanks a bunch for bringing this up <3

I'll add you to the list!! :D

Throw me up in that thing.

Just out of curiosity, why are we using JPG format? This sort of thing is not what it's designed for... JPG is made to be used on pictures and photos of people, images with lots of intricate detail so that when it dithers (pixelates) it won't be as noticeable. PNG, on the other hand, is made to be used with cartoons, computer generated stuff like we will be using in this project. Just throwing that out there...

Agreed, JPEG is definitely not the optimal choice here.

Sorry for the absence guys. =\ I've been without Internet access for the past week or so, excluding a few times at other people's places. Not at home, still not sure if it's working properly, but I'll get on this ASAP.

edit: Finished my bit for the project, will add it to the canvas tomor-- later today. xD

Woo. I've been internet-less for another week. Here's what I did for the project. . . it's obviously not that complicated, but I did upload it over a week ago.

Sooo, just to make sure I understand how this works...

Red the Ghost's image is supposed to be merged with Lokii's original image. Does Red need to e-mail it to Lokii to put them together?

Also, Frown is next. Frown, where you at?

Red is adding it himself to the original file (since he's helping run this stuff).

Edit: Good luck Frown!~

Why are we trying to do it in a specific order? It shouldn't matter when people submit their work.
