So I guess karma from only one subreddit wasn't enough?

hey, he did more work than most of the google image posting fuckers we see here all the time. also its essentially OC, which I personally have not seen in months.

Yeah but he's on a karma stealing double dip trip. I say we burn him alive and Photoshop babies on his corpse.

I also like OC.

Even if it was sarcastic, it was stupid.

Use less pronouns, I can't understand what you're saying.
Even if it was sarcastic,
So, 'it' is my sarcastic comment?
it was stupid.
That's the point of a sarcastic comment.

It feels like I'm back in 4th grade English class. Thank you for the memories.

You get an F.
Seriously though, what is your complaint? That the sarcastic comment was sarcastic? That the point I was making was stupid? That the sarcastic comment's phrasing was stupid? You leave so many questions with your writing, F-.

Just comment karma. Besides, I like seeing psbattles get some press, it's a great sub.

I wouldn't. I don't want quality to decline.

u/romeo_zulu May 02 '13
Anything bad inevitably gets downvoted to oblivion or redirected to /r/mspaintbattles, so I'm not too worried about it. I love watching the battles.

u/noiwontleave May 02 '13
I sure hope this was training. There's no chem tape on the hoods. You can even see the dude on the right's hair sticking out.

To answer your question, its a combination of both creativity and skill. You gotta have a clever idea and be able to execute it somewhat well. I'm self taught in Photoshop and I'm far from great. Just tryin to have fun with the skills I do have in Photoshop.

u/FEARTHERAPIST May 02 '13
Not OP but both, I think.
I'm no photoshop connoisseur but I thought it was a good job.6
u/ADHthaGreat May 02 '13
The only garbage here is your attitude and probably face.

It's far from garbage is the point I was sending across.
May not be the best but nowhere near the worst.
I retract my downvote for bein a cool guy bout it though.

u/rojlewis May 02 '13
It's a really funny sub and it welcomes all levels of photoshop users. It's humor/photoshop-novelty mixed into one. Some of them are really good.

Sometimes it's better to suit-up and wait for their mom to come home than to risk changing that diaper.

I now have a new sub-reddit to subscribe to. Thank You.

u/Onduva May 01 '13
It's a really great community and a lot of fun! Be sure to vote for your favorite for this week's battle.

Couldn't tell you specifics, but it looks like a Firefighter HazMat crew (based on the Self Contained Breathing Apparatus they are wearing?) either training or responding to a situation. I would like to know specifics myself.
1
u/noiwontleave May 02 '13
It's definitely some sort of HazMat response team. This is obviously a deployed military base somewhere. There are a number of different career fields in the various services that respond to HazMat incidents (not just firefighters). I'm going to assume it's training since they didn't bother to tape their hoods to their masks.
1
u/Left_Afloat May 02 '13
Right, military base and such. I just assumed firefighters because of the SCBA style with the integrated PASS, but I am not afraid to admit I am wrong.
1
u/noiwontleave May 02 '13
Well at least in the USAF, more or less all HazMat responders wear the same gear (my career field is not fire and we wear the same MSA setup the FD uses). Then again, this looks like Interspiro gear which shouldn't really be getting much use anymore in the AF so I'm inclined to think this is another branch. AF mostly uses MSA these days for emergency responders.
*Edit for spelling
1
u/Left_Afloat May 02 '13
Thanks for the response. I don't know much about military HazMat (as you could probably tell) or their SCBA use. My pool of knowledge is limited to a FD setting. Thanks!

All you need now is to spill orange all over their shirt, Battlefield 3 style.

u/WanderEuropeAR15 May 01 '13
So where in AFG are you? By the sheer amount of tents, I'd say Kandahar, but I'd have thought that they had more mod housing now, unless KBR is too cheap to provide it for contractors.
Possibly Qalat?

im sorry but how ? the lighting on all four babies is all off compared to the foreground and background

u/AnimeJ May 02 '13
I change diapers with my Milspec gas mask on all the time. Sometimes, they really do stink that much.

u/Robbythedee May 02 '13
How did you manage to add that tower in the back? It look so real
1
u/Onduva May 02 '13
The tower was there in the original photo.

u/Robbythedee May 02 '13
I know I was just playing around. Seeing as everyone was getting on you about the bottom left blur.

u/Baconloverawesome May 01 '13
so you won in /r/photoshopbattles and then decided to be a karma whore for no real reason...

u/DekuTreeOfKokiri May 01 '13
personally im glad he reposted it, other like me may never have seen it otherwise

u/42ndAve May 01 '13
I don't follow /r/photoshopbattles. I'm glad the karma whore who reposted it to /r/funny was the actual OC.

u/howitzer1 May 01 '13
I didn't even know that sub existed, so there's no way I would've seen it if he hadn't. Plus who cares? It's not like they're going to run out of imaginary internet points.
