I drew a Hitlerstache and a nazi hat on a byodood for the World of Tanks thread. Someone from the goon clan painted it in Captain Planet colours and bought it for some reason.

A non-goon asked me a question. Something I never really thought about too much. But it's actually an interesting question, because it's about the biggest in-joke of the entire site. Why did Lowtax name this website Something Awful? Is there any meaning to the name other than the most obvious?

From Lowtax's AMA Running an Internet website and forum!: Silva posted:Where did the name "Something Awful" come from? Is there any history as to how you named your website? formr CAT STEVENS posted:i think it was from back when lowtax was working at planet quake and they would play this game with dinosaurs and the t-rex made this horrible screeching noise and somebody said that game sure is "something awful". something like that. Lowtax posted:Yeah, it was Pharcyde who played some dinosaur game in the office with Radium and I.

Carbon dioxide posted:A non-goon asked me a question. Something I never really thought about too much. There really isn't much meaning to it. Like was said it was from back in the Quake days. Lowtax reviewed things like really terrible Quake levels and if memory serves in its earliest days, waaaaay before it became famous, the site was basically just a conglomeration of terrible levels, Lowtax making fun of bad things, and links to the worst crap on the internet. The Awful Link of the Day is actually an ancient, ancient site tradition as far as the internet goes. There really isn't some major, great story behind the name and it stuck because it fit. The site has continually basically been "bad things are bad and we will make fun of them."

I hope you assholes like this, because making it crashed Inkscape 50 goddamn times. And then I had to find a place to host it, which required figuring out how to read German because nobody in the English speaking world believes in images larger than 2048x2048. https://ab.awfulimg.com/image299327ch3.png

I, too, am not joking. I was looking for the pic earlier this week in the request pictures thread. What size are you going to make? I have no idea as to the scale of this thing. I also assume you'll print onto canvas for the free anti-aliasing and better look?

I wasn't happy with how I inadvertently blurred the edges, so I redid it.  http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2014/328/1/b/getout_huge2_by_killhour-d87l4xf.png DA is literally the only site I could find that would let me upload an image this large.

There are a fair number of goons that make enough money that throwing a few  at random forums goodies is a negligible expense and such things amuse them and pay Lowtax's rent in the process. I kind of figure that's the other side of it; as in "thank you Lowtax for maintaining this wonderful forum! Have some cash!"I mean I'm not going to lie, if I was making $80,000 a year and had no real financial responsibilities beyond rent and utilities I'd probably buy piles of stupid poo poo too.
