It looks better. (I assume that's the reasoning, and I agree with it..)

I've seen it with white space, and I have to say that it makes it look worse. Much worse.

I think we should have these two pictures, linked together. The top picture shows a good idea of Jafar, and the bottom picture is the most imposing and sssssnakelike one I've seen.

Here is a different take on Scaled Up, from back when Tim Burton made good movies (oh yeah I went there!):

(This has the advantage of having a hybrid head instead of full-on snake.)

Er...you nitpicked at Jafar not looking snakey enough, but Betelgeuse looks similar enough betwenen the two frames?

Didn't say anything about not looking snakey enough.

Not looking similar enough, I meant. As in "Jafar doesn't not look enough like that snake".

Here's another version of the Jafar transformation, that hopefully makes it clearer he's the one transforming:

"A snake am I? Perhaps you'd like to see how sssssnakelike I can be!"

That is awesome.

That works, but remove the white spacing. They add unnecessary space and you can already tell that they're serate frames.

If you need to add some separation, make it black bars; white space just looks sloppy.

... for Scaled Up, I take it? I'd say it's definitely fitting to that trope.

I think whether it looks better with or without white space between frames is totally subjective. It is not really accurate to say that it "is" sloppy- or lazy-looking or whatever. That's just an opinion. I agree that "without" looks cleaner, but, I didn't make that image. It is fine.

After inspecting the image further, there's a lot of white dead space, both around the image in between the frames.

Just a quick second to clean it up, then...

Mmm. I prefer a small gutter between the frames. Helps to break it up visually and emphasize a bit of time passage.

I have a message from another time...

I prefer the version without lines between the panels. Although if we want lines, I'd rather make them black.

I thought that black lines might be necessary, but the lighting in the frames make natural divisions on where one frame starts and another frame ends; it's very easy to tell them apart without needing to edit borders in.

I obviously prefer it with the lines, but (shrug) whatever the majority thinks is better.

Bumping this to encourage more input: gutters or no gutters on the Jafar pic?

No gutters.
