I guess this belongs here:

I read todays FoxTrot comic (http://www.ucomics.com/foxtrot/2006/04/09/) and it featured a paint by number. Though I could pretty much guess what the joke was, I couldn't stop thinking about it so I did this. (http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/Jacklu/?action=view&current=foxtrot.gif) ;D It took forever but it was definately worth it.

Thanks for doing the work for us, Jacklu! I considered it when I read the comic today but then I though naaah.

Yeah, I figured it would be something like that, knowing Jason! Nice job, Jacklu! I love Foxtrot, it's one of my favorites for sure.

No Prob, I'm always lookin' out for my peeps! Of course when I finished I went to the foxtrot homepage and found this. (http://homepage.mac.com/billamend/) Luckily I somehow got it right anyways.

Thanks for doing this for the rest of us that were too lazy to do the math :-)

Man, am I glad I waited to do it. I was going to do it myself, but then I wouldn't have so much time to do all the other important things, like read message boards…

I honestly cannot believe you just did that.

It's HYSTERICAL, though!
Good on yer!

The math wasn't the hard part, it was using paint to fill in all those little shapes. I'm still having trouble sleeping at night. :P ;)

I'm free! I don't have to load my spreadsheet of prime numbers up to 149580941! (Yeah, so I opened it to see how far it went. So shoot me!)

Let me know if his looked liked mine, I would love to check my work against somebody else.(I suck at math)

this is strange, weird, and very cool. On your part because you took the time to figure it out, and on the writers part for actually writing it up.

so yeah

still trying to figure out the spoiler here.....nope nothing.It's a spoiler, but not for OoTS. This part of the board is not only for OoTS, but in general, it is.

"A forum for discussion of webcomics, comic books, and of course, the Order of the Stick. " -- from the description of the forum.

I realize that but the [Spoiler] tag is oots specific so that Rich doesnt read a thread and have his ideas go out the window.

From the title of the sticky thread

"ALL Predictions about OOTS are now [SPOILERS]"

I labeled it spoiler because, for those who would like to figure it out for themselves, it would definitely have spoiled the surprise. Also, I found it mildly humorous to put Spoiler in the subject line of a thread that isn't OOTS related. You know, the kind of humor that is more sophisticated than a pun, not sophisticated enough for a punch line.

Although amusing to see a boy depict his sister as a green-skinned monster, those unfamiliar with the strip might be lost. I'd have gone for something a bit off-color, like an upraised middle finger or a mooning butt (who would actually sit and color it in to figure out the joke, besides hardcore nerds? ;) )

That doesn't mean the spoiler tag refers only to OotS, though. It says, "All predictions about OotS are now [SPOILERS]." It doesn't say, "Nothing but predictions about OotS are now [SPOILERS]." You're looking at a statement that all chickens have feathers and interpreting it to mean everything that has feathers is a chicken.

Is there any other kind? ;D

Well said, Kish. :) You can't convert an A, after all.

No I am looking at a statement that says all Chickens have feathers and asking why it was said that pigs have feathers. See you interpreted my statement incorrectly, though you feel you have diagnosied what I was saying.

My overall point to this is technically anything you post here can be a [spoiler], because somewhere there is someone who reads this forum and reads the other comic you post about and may have wanted to figure something out from that comic. The tag is being over used. I can read the threads of this forum and see 70% of them with that tag. Granted most are following Rich's rules because they are OOTS related, but just felt it was unnecessary here. Diagnose my statements all you want to try to make your point and get props from other people, doesnt make a difference to me.
