At first I thought I had my graphics card drivers out of date, or something like that, but the problem was REALLY the source... you gotta be kidding... THIS is the source for the prize contest on Dec 9th???? This image is fucking exploded!!! It was probably resized to 1000% before being uploaded... I resized a piece of two sources to 200% to explain how absurd this is...

exploded Dec 9th source


Today's source


To you people who upload the sources... PLEASE, try not to upload resized pics... specially if they're EXTREMELY oversized... SPECIALLY IF THEY ARE COMPLETELY EXPLODED!!!!

I really felt like chopping that... but come on... I'm not much a fan of chopping mosaics...

hmmm...the one I downloaded looks nothing like that.

the one I posted was resized to 200% jasper...
but still, that's weird... cause I downloaded it completely exploded...

Odd indeed.

This is what I have at 200%

funny... I downloaded it at work and it looks fine... why the fuck the copy i downloaded at home was screwed? And even more weird, why the other sources were NOT screwed?

Satan?

Just a guess.

damn it!

I had not checked, and when reading this, thought what a great idea, lets chop an absolute shit house of a source, something nearly beyond help, pixels everywhere but where they should be. That will be a bit different and fun.

But then damn it, the source is fine.

Agree..... Great idea Marco.
I checked my download and was fine.

btw, I figured what the problem was... RUSH!! (or stupidity... depends on the POV) Apparently I tried to drag it to PS before it was fully loaded (thanks firefox for loading images in stages), and once it didn't work, I hit copy and pasted it in PS... but it copied the image half loaded... that's why I got it with low quality...
