:awe: and 🙁

What's the funny as didn't they comment in the movie about eating there?

It doesn't look like an oversight either. Clearly, they are cleaning up the mess. I thought it was weird that the Farmer's stuff seemed to be over it and the neighboring suite, but buildings advertise for other businesses on their faces all the time so it's not that weird.
 
Those of us who have brains with image processing (most of us) see it as coming out of the page, yes.

For one thing, the bars are much too thin and the forum background much too plain to look like anything more than similarly colored solid bars in the image. With that perspective, it's impossible to think it's coming out of the page. Would it have been hard to widen them or make the whole image larger? Using it on a page with a patterned background may also help.
 
Only the palest drunk on Mt. Dew nerds would notice this.

Except that you should know what "redshirt" means before you use it. I didn't notice when I first saw it, but it is pretty dumb. Anyone who knows what it means to be a "redshirt" should know it really only applies to TOS. I don't make/tell jokes I don't understand.

They commented on it. Near the end, when they think IronMan dude is dead, they pull off his mask and (I belive he's still laying on the ground) he says he saw a Swarma(sp?) place, and has never had any, but they should try it.

I'd post a youtube clip but they've all been censored by the copyright nazis.

There is quite a bit of complexity to that image as it is. Someone spent a long time perfecting that and the effect is quite impressive. I aspire to make some of this quality some day, but for now I am learning. What makes many of these so difficult is camera movement. Those able to create these from scenes where the camera zooms or pans during a portion of the scene you want to leave animated boggle my mind.

This was my first attempt. Something simple.

This one required 2 masks.

This one required multiple masks, and I had to average two frames of background because the camera had a very slight zoom. I think you can still notice the door moving every so slightly, at least in the full sized version (FU Photobucket).

This one the Alien was swinging through other parts of the frame that I wanted moving, so there are multiple background images. The chains also didn't quite cooperate the way I would have liked. Getting things to line up so the the first and last frame are identical, so there is no "jump" in the animation is very difficult.

Three monitors and 6 instances of PS open are still not enough to speed making these up very much.

No one should know anything about STTNG.

Amazing. :wub:

I know they did and they ate there after the credits but trying to figure out what the point of the post was.

Don't get upset just because you can't see it. Did you have the same problem with the Magic Eye stuff? Maybe you're just not a very 3D person.
