About the (eventual) skin

I think the Great One is referring to the fact that the GIMP is a memory hog like few others...

[e of pi]

Following up on a comment from e of pi... arrrrgh. You're right.

Aren't I always? Wait, don't asnwer that.

GAH! Say that again, and you'll be exiled to Kalamazoo ('though you'll eat ham and eggs in Carolina), for forty thousand days.

No, whoiam was right. I'm referring to the learning curve, which so far has been too steep for me to climb on a spare-time basis.

What does Gretzky have to do with anything?

[e of pi]

I gave GIMP a shot, but was utterly stumped. Unfortunately, my PhotoShop bias crippled me.

[Xeroc]

Actually, I'd say I like Photoshop the best so far, but Paint Shop Pro is quicker and more efficient for some tasks.

A guy wearing a toque, ski goggles, and a scarf (although in this particular font the goggles look a little misshapen).
(also, ignore the grey line - it's to make things line up and I don't know what the background colour is.)
(I'm putting way too much effort into this.)

Looks like a power drill mounted on a counter to me.

I first read that as "space-time", which made me wonder just how much virtual mass GIMP has, and how dense it's packed.

[e of pi]

It's pretty dense. And since apparently all the smart people here, no offense to Zeke, have figured it out, I'm feeling rather dense as well.

Dense enough to create its own reasonably strong gravitational attractive force?

[Zeke]

He said as well, not gravity well.

[Chancellor Valium]

Are you sure? Are you sure what he said doesn't depend on your position in space-time (and when you last had lunch with Zaphod Beeblebrox)?

Hole-y Moses, that's singularly awful. It's breached a new event horizon of craptitude.

Actually, that would explain where all the dark matter is hiding rather nicely.

Hmmm. Interesting theory. So it's in the color selector?

[PointyHairedJedi]

You'd think so, but no. That would be too obvious, you see.

[e of pi]

So where?

[danieldoof]

he could tell you but then he would have to kill you.....with PIE
