Brief summary: Cosmic pulled a Philo, or at least 25% of a Philo.
BTW, Lockers "art" is very HIGH quality. Thanks Locker

I think we should have a gathering of the tribe in Tami's car. Yee haaaww.
Cosmic, I think you know I love you bro so I hope that you wont be hurt by what I say and will try to see the humor, but that link you gave to your last cartoon was funny. The picture was TINY. No way it would blow out anyones screen. That just cracked me up because I was expecting a giant pic.
I Hope that you start posting your pics again. I think they are great.

Cosmo, did you really delete your ST art because someone complained about the size? WTF! Please restore it. The webmeister should be able to do that, right?
Tami, you are amazing! Steve says if we were both around the campfire, he might have to walk over to the next one. Province that is. LOL!
Anders, if we don't hear from you in 48 hours, we'll know you're still in the trunk. Or worse.

Mimi et al:
The deal is I had Photobucket wack 2 manipulated images that depicted myself and Sooze as clowns made from images taken from my site. These were not done in fun or jest, but were a malicious part of his meltdown. If you enjoy pictures of your spouse or family redone like this, and posted on a public forum for no other purpose than bad intent, then I'm guessing you are in the minority.
Once again the drama machine has cranked up to a giant "Russ is banning of Cosmic from Photobucket" and the rest of that jazz.... It's bullcrap. He pulled all his images before launching his first whining thread, now deleted by him.
Besides that, I'll let Cosmic continue to spin this so he can come out on top. The threads speak for themselves though.
I'm done here. Carry on.

Or else we need Ron and his guns to take out some woopas-shite on all your a$$'s!
Hey Cosmic... Hey Russ... Chillsville? stooges? Can you guys just go climb a route and post the pics of your day here on the Taco? Or better, kiss and make up, so that we can get away from all the bickering over who posted what pics of who and get back to posting pics of people climbing, and other great places...
BTW - Russ and Sooze - Do you need any work done on the places? I'm making myself available the last week of August. Let me know if I can be of service, otherwise, I'll just wonder around doing nothing for a week.

Tami is really hoping you can (further) manipulate the picture I posted a while back. She already did some impromptu manipulation, you'll understand... As a cartoonist and caricaturist herself, she firmly believes in getting as well as giving. Most consider it an honour to appear in one of her cartoons, and many spend happy hours trying to figure out who's who.

Cosmic ,
Here is how it all went down.
First you remove all your crap art work and say it is because Russ made a logical comment on Sarah Funky Fresh's new forum Thank you thread about pixel size.
You then display a photo of Russ and Sooze with clown heads after just stating you only will post links and not photos.
You then delete the whining thread because its starting to make you look like the jackass you are.
Russ calls you on it as it is not legal to take others photos from others sites and use them as you wish.
Now you are claiming that its because you were reported for stealing images that you will no longer grace us with your crap photo retouching hacks.
You live in a fantasy world. The kind were you expect others to pay your mortgage while you waist hours at the computer manipulating images.
Get a life. Dont you have some plastic toilets somewhere you need to suck out. Or maybe you could clean your own windows and have a clearer view on how life works.
You play the part well of a victim, deleting threads and restating your issues to fit your latest whine.
Ouch sure had a lot of class. its a shame you werent able to pick any of it up from him .
Whatever it is you do, you need to move on Dwain, nobody needs your Beg Fest for attention or money.

I've done my best to stay out of this pissing match but I'm out of coffee and it's time to go to work and I'm not quite ready for work so here we go.
First and foremost, I find it most annoying while reading posts that suddenly the entire page has to be scrolled from side to side to view the picture/text because some dope posted a pic that was too large.
It is incredible that after this has been explained to the offending parties (whoever they may be) they don't take heed of this new found info and:
a) adjust existing photos
b) adjust future photos
c) all of the above
As for the manipulations. Personally I find about 98% of them completely stupid. The animations are even worse, and this includes the ones Russ puts up. But then the Taco isn't all about me. It seems over the course of a few days it's all about Cosmic.
So Cosmic what ever happened to the simpler more serious "Dwain"? Why did you make it all about you? Do you realize that Peter Haan has been positing photos that blow out the screen too? Your name was not mentioned. You immediately went over the top, pulled your crap and started with this "he" and "him" garbage.
To top it off you posted a manipulation that included me. Aside from being obnoxious and making it full size (or more) you did it not for fun, but for spite. Your intent was meant to be harmful, ugly and malicious. I think we can all agree that I have done nothing to you, and wasn't even involved in this stupid squabble until you put me there.
So now I'm involved. This was not a particularly bright move on your part. Pushing me into this idiotic topic of manipulations, too large/too small, boo-hoo, poor picked-on-me festival was not one of your finer moments.
For the record I never did, and doubt I ever will, "appreciate" your "art". Our fellow Tacoans are way too kind. I find your work idiotic, without class, and often without much thought. They are not clever nor funny in my opinion. Moreover, they are simply a tribute to wasting time.
Me, I prefer Haan's stuff providing he keeps it on the screen. Otherwise, I'll continue to move along to the next thread.
My recommendation is to stop making comments with reference to me or Russ, and what has been done to you as it's a ridiculous claim from the start. As a recap, you were not called out by name in the first place and things didn't get out of hand until YOU made the first move. Have you learned nothing from the thousands of hours you've wasted pouring over the Taco? Don't poke sticks at Russ as he will grab it and beat you with it!
I'll summarize Russ' email as you seem to have missed the point. Misuse of photos with intent to harm is not cool and will not be tolerated.
Lastly, if you feel the need to post your asinine work, do it with good intentions and keep it a normal size. With that, I believe all parties involved will be satisfied.
Susan

With very small effort you can make your texted posts unaffected by
photograph sizes. After you finish typing the message go back and add a single

I must of missed something here...But I wanted to add that after the decades of knowing Russell, and of what a solid individual he is, this must have been over the top. I've have never known him to be riled by trivialities and he is an appreciator of "All" types of art, some of which may not be posted here, so something must have really chapped him. Myself personally, (being a professional graphic designer here in the PNW) I find most of these manipulations here displayed as rather primitive, and unfinished in their appearance. Although I did find Ouch's work humorous albeit rough.

EVERY DAMN TIME I FIND SOMETHING I LIKE THEY DISCONTINUE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!DO THESE PEOPLE JUST SIT AROUND AND WAIT FOR THESE MOMENTS AND TRY TO PISS ME OFF?
