Post by: runequester on May 23, 2010, 04:24:07 PM

Found this roaming the interwebs

There are a few automated motivator generation sites out there that would only require you to crop back to the original guru image and then copy the resulting new image to the site - Just add your own (de)motivational comments into the associated part of the site...

--edit--

Use this (http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/motivator.php) one.

I beg your pardon? This would be Dpaint/ArtEffect/TV-Paint/LunaPaint skills, wouldn´t it? :laugh1:

But since I like demotivational posters better than motivational ones, and since the link was too tempting I had to try it. Please ignore the lame composition. I didn´t take it serious and used MS Paint to create the screenshot (which of course sucks).

Anyway, here is my take:

Saved both, I suspect I'll have a use for them both sooner or later.

Also, I wonder what I might have started...
