I know, a thread on this trope was just recently locked for lack of action. But I think that Questionable Content may have just provided the perfect image, with no need to block out part of the existing image. I'm aware that the text is awfully small, but I think that can be tweaked.

I was actually about to start a thread to suggest the exact same image. You beat me to it. The suggestion is good.

OK image, that would be for me.

If the text is tweaked, sure.

Maddy read my mind...I just didn't think it could be made into a good page pic. I sit corrected. [tup] That said, it looks artifacted and the text does need some cleanup.

Well, it's at 325. Why not take advantage of the full 350 to maximize legibility?

Kind of complex image manipulation, but it is possible to shrink the image more than the speech bubbles. Original?

Wilbyr: Yeah, the quality on the one I posted isn't that great — that was a quick grab-crop-and-resize with Paint.

I've been using GIMP for that sort of thing recently. Works a lot better.

Agree with going for the full 350.

I prefer the larger speech bubbles, even if it does mean a tiny bit of the character art is covered. You've done a beautiful job of making sure both as little as possible and nothing important is covered up.

Ooh that is clever Willbyr, cropping off the sides a bit so it doesn't have to be shrunk as much. Here is the best of both worlds: speech bubbles are exactly the same as the original, no character art covered...


v Did that. Less of the girl on the left is cropped off, more of the girl on the right; good trade I think.

[up] Much more legible. I CAN READ IT! Too bad the girl on the bottom left is cut out. Maybe that could pan over a little more. There is some free space to the right of the girl in the green.

[up] Better

That's the way Faye is in the original — she's partly cut off by the panel edge. And Rodney, that third one is beautiful!

The entire thread has been in favor of the overall concept, so 15.1 is up, potholed, and tagged. Caption or no? I'm thinking no.

Potential caption: "I thought they had been eaten by an allosaurus."
