A photo favor please...

[Posher778]

Can someone make this photo from POTC2 large enough that its 800by 600 but not make it blurry or crappy looking? I need a good pic of it for my background, but I don't know how to enlarge things right.

^That's the pic.

[alkytrio666]

What, you want a picture from POTC that doesn't contain Keira Knightley?!?!

You're nuts!

Kraken is better. I can say that 100% honestly, that kraken is WAY more interesting to look at then keira knightley, although close.

[crabapple]

There's only so many pixels' worth of information there. It's not possible to make it larger without revealing the lack of detail.

[Posher778]

If that's the case apple, does anyone know of a place with good kraken backgrounds like that one? Open ocean, daylight, kraken in action, that I can get that are around 800 by 600? bigger is ok, but I just NEED a kraken!

So, you'd rather look at long, wet tentacles instead of a cute girl?

[crabapple]

This thread had to go in a weird direction.

[AUSTIN316426808]

I'm just kiddin around, not trying to be weird.

[crabapple]

Heh...this thread has been weird from the get-go! It is Super Weird

oooooooo

[alkytrio666]

I know, right? I think, when she isn't looking terribly skinny that she's smokin' hot.

[Posher778]

The Kraken is just one giant phallic symbol.

For what exactly?


Yes, Kraken over Keira. It is easily the coolest movie monster ever, as well as the coolest mythological creature ever, closely followed by cerberus, and its HUGE. I love ocean life, as everyone knows, and that thing is just flawless. Plus it's the only thing that managed to best Jack Sparrow, which is a definent feat.

[crabapple]

And it's big, too. Big cuh....cuh...cuttlefish.

[Posher778]

it isn't. a. cuttlefish. you. fag.

[crabapple]

Okay, well, Harryhausenfish then.

"PHALLIC" Symbol.

Tentacles have always been phallic symbols. A giant multi-tentacled monster is only representative of man's insecurities and desire for power.

So, you think i'm insecure with a desire for power?

It's an octopus, they have tentacles, you can't make a giant octopus without it having giant tentacles. The kraken is a sea legend, PotC is full of different sea legends..Davy Jones, the Flying Dutchman ect. So the giant multi-tentacled monster in this case is a...well, giant multi-tentacled monster, not a representative of insecurities. It's a disney action movie about pirates, I doubt there's supposed to be any depth to the big octopus.

[AUSTIN316426808]

Disney didn't create the legend of the Kraken.


Well aware of that, I said the movie is disney, not the kraken legend.

[Posher778]

He means they just used the idea of a big octopus... Pretty blunt.

Adventure, excitement... a Jedi craves not these things.

[Posher778]

I didnt really say Disney used it as a phallic symbol.

I'm saying the Kraken as a whole is a phallic symbol.

Randomly...

For Christ sake, ease up on the feminism for once.

[AUSTIN316426808]

Whatever the fuck ever

[Posher778]

Hahaha, that's fun to say like that. since it should be what the fuck ever, now its fun to say.

[Despare]

Disney didn't create the legend of the Kraken.

And man didn't create the giant squid that the Kraken legends are thought to be influenced by. Real giant squid or colossal squid are estimated to grow to 13 metres (43 feet) in length, including the tentacles... insecure bastards.

[Despare]

Man didn't create the snakes that are in the bible story of adam and eve, but it's still referred to as a phallic symbol as well.

Damn snakes and squids... living representations of penis all over! How do we get away from all the peni?!

Freud was a coked up weirdo.

Honestly?

I swear I don't remember using it, at least not today anyway.

[pinkerton]

I want my money back. And I want angels to give it to me. And pixies to count it out, and a gnome or a hobbit or an elf to sleep at the foot of my bed, and have - I just want them all over my backyard. But no matter what happens with any of that, I DO want my money back

[Posher778]

Maybe i'm wrong, but i swear this is the 4th or so time. Must be because of the mood and the same guy you reply to using it.

[Ash's_evil_hand]

Man didn't create the snakes that are in the bible story of adam and eve, but it's still referred to as a phallic symbol as well.

I'd have to stick my oar in and say that man DID invent these works of fiction. Maybe didn't invent real snakes, but Man certainly invented Bible snakes!

Hence - phallic symbols?

[crabapple]

What in the heck is a Bible snake. Is that a real kind of snake, like a robot snake? Or is it a mutant like a fishlizard, something that looks different from a snake

Do you actually see it? Can they be viewed, you know, regularly, on a regular basis like normal snakes can be

Or do you have to like, see it at a special appearance like a concert

[Despare]

If you view an animal as a phallic symbol then I'd have to assume you just want to fuck animals.

[bloodrayne]

Man didn't create the snakes that are in the bible story of adam and eve, but it's still referred to as a phallic symbol as well.
The story of Adam and Eve (if you want to look at it in depth), states that the 'snake' didn't start out as a snake...It was described as multi-colored and beautiful, with an enchanting voice, 4 legs and a tail, more like a large lizard than a snake...So beautiful that Eve trusted it, and that was why she did what it said...AFTER it led Eve astray it was punished by God...It was told that it would no longer be beautiful, that it would be feared instead of trusted, and that it would be forced to 'crawl on its belly' forever after...It was at that point that it lost its legs, and its voice, and became a snake...That's also supposed to explain why many people have a natural, inherent fear of snakes, even if they have never been hurt by one, or even come in contact with one...


So...Does that mean that God thought the snake was just being a dick when he did what he did?...:D

[bloodrayne]

Some say the original sin is "sex"So then...How were people expected to "be fruitful and multiply"?...They were punished for doing what they were TOLD to do, and what they HAD to do in order to procreate?


What kind of sadistic trick is THAT?



I believe the Adam and Eve message was more like, "If you do ANYTHING that I specifically told you not to do, even eat an apple when I told you not to...You will be severely punished"

[Despare]

Some people are simply so repressed that the act of reproduction is a sin no matter what the context. Honsetly, the snake and the kraken, they can be phallic symbols IF that's what you're looking for and that's what you want them to be. Where xperiment sees a phallic symbol I see a cool monster put onto the silver screen and based on Scandinavian lore.

[Despare]

I see someone who couldnt spot a devil's advocate if he shoved a fork up his ass.

How is shoving a fork up my ass, your ass, or anybody's ass supposed to help with the identification of a "devil's advocate". This thread didn't need one anyway, it was a request for a pic from a movie. Ah well, fork or no fork, at least I can tell if somebody's an ass.

[slasherman]

..so do you have it yet ?

If you want exactly 800 x 600 pixels the picture have to be cut...

if you want to keep the same picture only bigger it has to be either

800 x 339 ...or ......1414 x 600 ...no problem to cut it down to 800 x 600 though...but of course you loose some of the picture

I don't have it yet, and I can't find a larger one either. If anyone would like to help instead of arguing of forks and penises and repression, it'd be appreciated.




BTW BloodRayne, what bible is that from? In mine the devil was a snake for the get go.

I tried that but didn't like the black... maybe Posher has an idea for a background pic??? I cloned in some water and surrounded the ship in water but the fact that the scene doesn't contain the WHOLE ship and Kraken made it look a little wonky.

I agree it doesnt look right...maybe another color than black :confused:

[bloodrayne]

BTW BloodRayne, what bible is that from? In mine the devil was a snake for the get go.Actually, there are several different versions of 'THE' bible...Some were altered through the ages by different religions/churches with the excuse of 'translation/interpretation'...But, the original story (and most children's bibles that are supposed to explain things in 'a way that even a child can understand') say that it happened the way of the snake as punishment thing, and it doesn't actually say 'snake', it says 'serpent'

The King James version (the only one originally accepted by the church of England, and may still be the only one considered acceptable to this day...I'm not sure about that) is quite a bit different from the original 'unabridged' addition...The excuse at the time of the King James printing was that the original was 'too difficult for the average person to comprehend' in its full context, making it difficult for the average person to 'receive its message'...The 'changes' were supposed to make it easier to understand...However, some things actually say the OPPOSITE of what the original says...It is speculated that it was no accident that it happened that way...Hmm

BTW...The Catholic church boldly states that the bible is 'not to be taken literally, and is subject to interpretation'...Which allows them the chance to explain why it's okay for people to worship and pray to Mary (a human), even though the bible (EVERY version), clearly states that you should 'Have no other Gods before me', and you are ONLY supposed to worship God...No other deities, and certainly no PEOPLE

[Despare]

I agree it doesnt look right...maybe another color than black :confused:

Could be... I tried variations of gradients but couldn't make one that looked right. Maybe feathering the original image into a lighter blue color...

I don't know.

::shrug::

[bloodrayne]

I merely wish to point out that the history and the bible that most take for granted has been written and rewritten over and over to suit the political and religious agendas of those in power. There is great Truth in the book, but very little fact.

@slasher/despare

I like the big one even though its wonky. I wish i could just find one that works for me. (I'm OCD) its hard to find perfect pictures for wallpapers. The black doesn't work with me, as... ocd, and I want it to take up the whole screen. It doesn't necessarily have to be that picture, just kraken+ship=destruction kind. No drawings.

[Despare]

So no pre-strike pics?
