The time I would have normally spent blogging today is most likely going to be spend driving and shoveling. It’s been a long time since we’ve done a Photoshop. Unless you’re Morpheus, in which case you’re probably Photoshopping this sentence. And, hey, I added voting to the comments, so now I can put you in direct competition with one another! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!
Anyhow, if you’re one of the unlucky souls sitting at work today, here’s an opportunity to do something which is not work. Unless you suck at Photoshop. When posting your work, the “img src” tag should work. Preview before you submit to see if it does. If it doesn’t, leave a link to the picture, and I’ll eventually get around to fixing it so it displays.
By the way, keeping the picture under 500 px wide is probably a good idea. If you upload to Flickr, they have an option where you can select a size. Do that, if you don’t mind.

The img tag isn’t working for me… sorry!

I see someone is going to be a dick and vote 1 star for everything. Classy.
From flannj. FYI, the “img src” tag SHOULD be working now.
@Bad Kermit – Damn it Yellon!!!!!
@Black Mark Grace – THIS IS WHY WE CAN’T HAVE NICE STUFF!
After chasin’ sunsets
One of life’s simple joys
Is playin’ with the boys.
@morpheus –
This is the difference between AWESOME and my weak effort.
It’s WHERE AWESOME HAPPENS?
@Brick – Awesome
No contest. Morpheus wins.
I am too much of a simpleton to figure out the img tag, but here is my humble submission anyway. I envision this scene taking place shortly after Lou pinch hits Aaron Miles for Bradley.
KERM: Fixed. Nice job
It’s a close tie between Chuck and Gorilla, IMHO, but the edge goes to Gorilla.
Still, Bradley used to use a morning star when he was with the Padres, but now that he’s in the Big City he will likely upgrade to a glaive, for one.
Would one of you direct me to a poor man’s (read –
free’) PhotoShop on the InterWebus, or something like it in the Microsoft Office suite or programs? Something where I try my JPEG manipulation skills on Kerm’s pic. Thanks.
Uncle Miltie is not going to be (another) bust but will lead the Cubs to the Promised Land – you heard it here first….well, how about a pennant? Wouldn’t that be an improvement?
Just the small matter of getting Peavy, since the Braves signed that other guy.
@CactusMcHarris – I think GIMP is the best one out there. There are also plenty of tutorials for it on YouTube, among other places.
@Bad Kermit – Thanks. I have been struggling to even put two pictures on one layer… I’m a moran.
No longer content with only throwing his own bat, Milton Bradley turns on his new teammates.
@Tom Servo – Theriot is actually to scale. Also, awesome name.

I don’t ask much of you guys and I expect even less, but can I please have a comment voting system on my own site without you guys trying to be “funny” and fucking around with it?
Can you see who votes for what?
POW!
Parker Brothers and Milton Bradley, together at last.
I expected that, yet couldn’t resist.
The “Real” Bartman.
Let’s hope the Dempster of 2008 wasn’t just a fluke…
Fixed to embed picture.
@LincolnT – That’s awesome.
@Bad Kermit –
Thanks, a little late but I didn’t have time to post and didn’t want it to go to waste… I’ve been told its still not ‘Morpheus’ good… maybe next time.
I hope my submittle isn’t too late!

Sorry for the double post
@Chris P – It’s not your fault. My spam filter is occasionally as overzealous as Yellon.
