alright, this one, based on my fave soul strut image and phrase
and this based on my fave soul strut persona, theMack (though the content of the word bubble can change, but i also thought asprin's version was very intelligent, the pixel cross pattern of mack's sweater)
My only qualm with your genius interpretation of the one SHIG is that no one says "NO AYO." They say, "AYO."
Can you explain the "NO"?
And where's dollarbin with all his new graemlins?
I wanna mess around with this shit.
Dor, funny as it is, i just learned it when i did that "no ayo" pixel thing. What i did was get the original image and shrink it to the size of a typical pixel image. then in photoshop, go to filter->pixelate->mosaic. and then you use the pencil tool to draw over/trace it. for best results restrict yourself to a 16 colour pallet, or when saving, save optimized gif and limit it there as a 16 image. its really easy. i imagine the same thing could be done using mspaint.
Nice.. thx for the knowledge.
Asprin 4 president!!!
And per Shig's request, the Puto Bong Bong freestyle crowd-pleaser:
We need more of these plaese
I don't want to start shit, but personally, I'd rather not see any permutation of "ni99a" thrown around here loosely or with a tongue-in-cheek attitude. I know hip-hop has pretty much made the term as ubiquitous as any other (my lips are like an ooo-wop when I start to spray it) but seriously, do we want to look like a bunch of snarky white dudes who think it's cute to say, "strictly for my ninjas" (an actual Urban Outfitters t-shirt, ok?) and not think we're herbing ourselves?
I'm not directing this at SoulOnIce at all - I just think it's one graemlin we'll be ok out excluding.
(And that's my criteria.)
SHIT YEAH!
These are the ones I did, some have been posted before but I fixed some incredibly minor problems with the previous versions, so use these versions:
with apologies to Freeway:
This one posted for my own amusement:
Here's one as trubute to Ross Hogg's alternative to "No Homo" (which fortunately died out on its own anyway)
Concept: Young_Phonics; execution: dollar_bin
The Puto one gets my vote.
and now, the unofficial Beef graemlin
- spidey
This is so neccessary.
So is this. A lot of these are nice as f**k. Raj, just go crazy with the graemlins and give us a vast assortment to choose from, mang. Gotta have that Puto Bong joint in my soulstrut life, though.
I'd like to see one with that Lacoste alligator sayin' some sh*t maybe.
And you gotta have ALL the soulstrut catch phrases represented. "I'll work you, son", "don't risk it", all the other ones I can't keep up with. And what about my man Pap?!?
Fuckin' classic!!!
put this on a t-shirt (girl's medium) and i will buy it.
Secondly, I think these tend to look much cooler when they're done up super tiny style.
Without trying to step on any toes, here's my revised version of the puto bong bong one:
awesome! now all we need is a tiny pixelated version of this guy:
with an "AYO!" balloon...
