Bugger, where'd it go?

Happy birthday OTIS/Panic (or is it a Picnic? Hard to tell.)

Continuation by dave sag

The panic continues. This picture is a manipulation of a picture by Harlan Wallach who manipulated an image by Ed Stastney who manipulated the original seed image made by Paul Joiner.

To add to this ever growing art piece, of which this page is but a part, simply grab any one of the images in the series by clicking on the relevent links (my link is disguised as the miniature of the piccy you should see in the top right corner), edit it in your favourite image editor, keeping in mind the theme of this panic (self referential & fish). Can you spot the fish in mine?

Once you've finished manipulating the image you should then name it according to the rules of panic naming and create a web page, bung it in there, along with info about the project (how self referential can you get?) and a link to the page you got it from. Then tell everyone how clever you are, including (and especially) the owner of the original image. Then the onus is on hir to add your page to hir page. Get it?

If you can't, or won't create a web page of your own, Ed has offered to do this for you I believe. (Am I right here Ed?) Mail him with the details.

Cheers and have a good time.

    How to name your files

    This info came straight from some e-mail I got but I don't remember who posted it. Arrgghh the curse that is cut and paste.

    For example...
    If XXX used bdface-oed.jpg and bdsmile-sax.jpg
    to create an image called bdspires-xxx.jpg,
    (s)he should upload a text-file called bdspires-xxx.txt
    which states: "Sourced bdface-oed and bdsmile-sax"
    How's that sound?
    And remember! Progressions/evolutions of images are numbered thusly...
    If XXX manipped bdpoot-tom.jpg, (s)he would name the resulting
    file: bdpoot-2xxx.jpg.

    If POP were to then manipulate bdpoot-2xxx.jpg, (s)he would name the
    resulting file: bdpoot-3pop.jpg.
    a very colourful bar that says 'who is dave and what is dave space'
