Thank you all.

Nobody bothered to make me one, so I figured I'd take matters into my own hands. As if anyone cared anyway. -_-

Anyway, today is everyone's (not so) favorite forum member's birthday!

Nearly 15 years ago today, I triumphed over all of the other lame-ass sperm and found the oh-so coveted egg. I was, of course, born some months later.

So to celebrate such an occasion, I baked you a pie.

Enjoy! It's cherry.

Happy Pico Day Tom! :D

What do you guys think so far?

This is my sixth edit on it. I believe I've made some progress. As for the rest of the background, however....

Thanks man, my torso looks great.

The hair is off, but that's okay. If I decide to re-construct this picture, I'll definitely use your work.

Of all the times for a camera to mess up... ugh.

At least you can still make out our features.

No, he was fairly kind to my friend and I.

You see, there was like a 2 hour wait to see him. So he left his booth to meet everyone waiting in line. And, as you can see, he let us take a picture with him, which is something the rest wouldn't do unless you payed 20 bucks for an autograph.

He was in a rush, so we didn't get to talk to him much, but he seemed fairly nice.

You aren't wearing a party hat in this picture, are you?

Nope. :)

But after you said that, it sort of looked like I was wearing one.

It's mostly our heads that are affected. Long and careful work could possibly produce something worthwhile.

Please tell us how we're gonna fix that mess...

I'm not sure. I'm going to try myself as well. I'm thinking about cutting us out of the picture, and replacing the background with something else. That'd be the only way to clean it up. Then I'd have to use a lot of clone stamp and perhaps the pen tool, and move my head to my torso... ha ha.

For those of you who don't know (Probably most of you), the Steel City Con was held today. (One of Pittsburgh's Comic-Cons)

At any rate, I had the opportunity to meet Anthony Daniels, the guy who played C3-PO in the Star Wars trilogy.

But for whatever reason, the picture turned out awful. I don't know if it was the lights or movement, but something went horribly wrong.

The camera really fucked up the picture. You can still see our faces, but the severe blur around everything is very annoying.

And so, I commission you, people of Newgrounds: can you make the picture a bit better?

I'm not expecting it to return to normal. (Indeed that would be impossible)

But if any of you could fix it up the best that they can, I'd really appreciate it. I know a lot of people on here are great on Photoshop.

I'm just looking to have our shirts and most of our faces fixed up... perhaps a little less splotty, smudged, and blurry.

I have nothing to give you except for my thanks, but I would really appreciate it if somebody could give a whack at it.

If you'd like, I have a much, much larger, higher-resolution picture. If you need it, PM me. Thanks guys.

My dick.

Yeah, that one's decent as well. I'm going in to school in about 30 minutes, so I guess I'll have an answer soon.

That's easy- Blondie. Few people have more beautiful voices than Deborah Harry.

Not to mention the music is badass.

Ha ha, brilliant!

I wonder if it was done purposely?

I mean, come on- that's just too epic- especially considering where the straw ends...

Get a dude whose name starts with a T. You can call the band j.e.s.t.

Yeah, that would be cool.

Unfortunately, I don't know of any drummer with "T" as their first initial.

a combination of the first letters of each band members name. See if it spells anything.

Leave this thread. Authorities are being contacted.

No, it was legit, and no I did not pay a penny for it. It was through John Hopkins University, taken at one of the branches of the North Allegheny school district.

What you're spewing out is absolute bullshit- academic studying does nottake up a person's entire life. Believe it or not, a person can play music and still get good grades. I have a very easy time balancing academics and various other activities.

You have yet to define *good grades* to me.

All A's and B's, honor roll every time.

I enjoy making music- what the hell is wrong with that?

There are more important things to do.

Music is one of my hobbies. Certainly you must have hobbies. What the hell are you, a robot?

Not to mention music is an art, and it has been proven to enhance learning and education.

Ugh.

Ugh, how cliche.

You can't come up with a good answer to that? Why? Because it's true?

Out of all of them, I'd probably say that one was the best.

Yeah, I like that as well. Maybe "The Midnight Brigade". I'll run it past my friends, and see what they think.

It's a nice OS, to be sure.

The only con I see with it is the software, or lack thereof.

Currently, I have both Ubuntu and Windows XP on my PC.

Eh, I can see it in the eyes and mouth, but I wouldn't go as far to say that the resemblance is "uncanny".

I'll bet you "study and play" at the same time. How's that working out for you?

Because the last time I checked, you weren't exactly a Stephen Hawking.

I've been playing the guitar passionately since late 2002, and I've had very good grades. I was invited to take an SAT test in the seventh grade.

Sorry mate, you have UBER CANCAR!!!1!11!

Somebody had to do it.

But really, I wouldn't worry about it- it doesn't seem serious. If it continues, however, you may want to see a doctor.

Hmm, I just may need to attempt making something.

What to make... what to make...

Shazam.

I'm thinking of starting a band, Newgrounds, and I need your help naming it. As of now, this is just sort of a project- it may or may not happen. Regardless, I need a name in the event that it goes through.

I've used everything from my mind to various acronyms and generators, and have compiled a rather lengthy list of band names. Some are kind of cool, others are just plain stupid.

How's the year going so far for you?

Fairly well, I guess. Same old same old.

What's the best thing that's happened?

Eh, nothing really. Just the same old stuff.

What's the worst thing that's happened?

I had some problems with my girlfriend.

What are you looking forward to in the next 2/3 of the year?

Hopefully) meeting up at the Wizard Con with Luis and the rest of the NG Crew, possibly a concert in the summer, going to Massachusetts, and hopefully participating in the 2009 Sketchbook Tour.

What have you accomplished so far?

Not much, really.

Interesting life, eh?

I just added this little dog-looking creature sort of thing to mine. I bought it in early '07. It's sort of like a dog made out of little household things like a measuring tape, screws, cloth, etc.

It's pretty neat- I'll post a picture tomorrow. I would also add a knife that says "Evan" on it, but then I'd be wary of taking it to school.
