Nice Pete's PowerPoint Presentation Wednesday, October 22, 2003 • read strip Viewing 58 comments:

Nice pete is even more restrictive with his image sizes than achespace. Those are bound to be some ambiguous looking murders.

And the person who hired you to do those impossibly small pictures ... is a killer.

Talk about working under pressure.

Aw, sod it, I just went and poked around in Photoshop. I give you, Pete's first Icon. [IMGS OFF]

Of course it's hard to see, it's 32x32. I blew it up some so you could see detail.

[IMGS OFF]

If there's interest I could do the rest, I guess.

That is professional as a mug. If I was less lazy, it might've replaced my teutonic knight.

THERE IS INTEREST

A comment left by evolume was marked lame too many times and excluded. (marked lame by apocowarg, salvagebar, HSE, mystkmanat, nutmeg, betwixt)

awesome

I made it 100 chubbies. There is officially interest.

Thanks zeifel

Damn fine...

Where's that guy who says "I see what you did there"? Well, I guess I'll just be that guy here. I see what you did there. (it is cool that I've been going through chronologically, wondering about your avatar for 550 strips)

Me too! Nice work.

I'd been curious too. Now that it's all "[IMGS OFF]" I would never have seen it. Good job.

it's all [IMGS OFF]. :(

It's rainwolfj's avatar.

I e-mailed Onstad about this a fairly long while ago. All I can say for certain: he replied that he was going to look into fixing it, so if nothing else, he knows .

It appears Zefiel has neglected this brainchild. This is a pity. Being the respectable gentleman I am, I offer you Pete's Second Icon.

And here it is on a larger scale:

[IMGS OFF]

(The premise is that the gun was in the person's hand, misleading the detectives to initially think it was an open-shut suicide case. They will realize it was not when they take routine fingerprints. This was a B-class murder at best, you see. The murderer forgot to affix the murdered man's fingerprints to the gun, which will cause the police to look for DNA evidence and more than likely find what they're looking for. Those rascals!)

A passerby notices that the distinct lack of a third icon, and obligingly provides one.

Larger Scale:
[IMGS OFF]
As you can see, not precisely a Knicks game, but a major sporting event nonetheless. The jumbotron is displaying a brutal knifing of the victim, which they are, naturally, helpless to turn off. Partway through making this it struck me what a real great, "A-1" type of murder this really was.

Through the magic of .gif, the murder can come to life! (so to speak)

[IMGS OFF]

This shit right here is what we call Assetbar Magic. EXCELLENT work, everyone.

Agreed. This asset just won awards, everywhere

I love you both.

Aww yeah, we doin' this! Awesome work.

Excellent stuff!

I came to hate assetbar, but GODDAMN i love this thing Baryonyx made. Also his name reminds me of a cool dinosaur, so he wins all around.

The next category of murders is largely the same as 'A-1', only it's a Harlem Globetrotters game opening for the Olympics.

I just love how each icon is more sophisticated than the last, just like the murders. Everyone pitched in, and really pulled off something special. I am so damn happy.

What did we do assetbar? Why have you IMGS OFF'd us? We been true to the way! We remembered the stories! Ain't we done good?...No I didn't mean to to question you I just, nooo [DUSTYS OFF]

Death on a Jumbotron, you can't properly represent that through something the size of two favicons.

"They said it couldn't be done... but baryonyx found a way..."

No-one said it could be done.

4 favicons. Two favicons would be 32x16.

Option 3 kills me.
...Oops.

that's so lame, it's chubby.

Teodors terror in panel 5 makes it for me.

Teodor hasn't been this freaked out in a while.

they are helpless to turn it off

Nice Pete does not yoke unto the Camel Case

Nice Pete's head tilt kills me stone dead

INTEREST

IT was a high four and then I read the alt text and it makes this strip a 5.

Wait, Pat said something good about someone?

Nice Pete is the most matter-of-fact maniac in the world. He's good for society tho

LOL Wonderful

"Kind of a better murder" makes this a 5 for me.

It's for the presentation Pete is doing at MurderCon this year. "MURDERCON '03 - The most unlawful convention, probably."

"A Real Great". Nice Pete is hella in tune with his murder styles.

The only thing better than Nice Pete is eating a Butterfinger ice cream bar while receiving oral sex and watching Dexter. Well, not so much better as just as good as.

You know...I've never tried it, but I think I would have a problem with eating and receiving oral sex at the same time.

Aw, you'd be great at it, I promise

Nice pete enjoys his basketball, hmm?

Téodor

The most worrying thing about Nice Pete's "A-1" murder is the "etc."

I don't know, I see it more as a "you know, that kind of thing". Like it's just totally normal, etc.

How nice to see Pete (in panel 4) making one of his Scannersy "force the Denny's waitress to spew blood from her anus-mouth" faces so early on.

Goddamn, do I hate Nice Pete.

Interesting! I see that more as a "Nice Pete in the prison cell with Pat" face, discussing the merits of putting pictures of murders above babies, cutting boards minus the DNA evidence, etc.

For the love of everything [IMGS ON]
