see.. now that's what I wouldn't really want. My DSL is maxed out, and page one takes forever to load.. roughly a minute or so at .3MB / sec. Even the spoilers need to load up.
I might have a rule about max file size of posts.

I was thinking more of a poker-specific forum for people interested in constructing ani-gifs, photoshops, gimp.. etc. Software.. technique.. How-to.
Then display the finished work in the appropriate threads / forums.

I've searched and seen some of the threads.. "Best of 2+2" also has a few threads.

maybe the idea sucks.. maybe there's not enough people who'd be interested.

not gonna take the time to make a comprehensive guide or anything but here's some info on how to make a gif from a youtube video or avi file in case someone wants to know and if you are willing to learn to use the software.

a lot of what you want might be found in Other Forums -> Computer Technical Help

Nobody could write a comprehensive guide. There's just too much to cover.

As for willingness to learn the software, anyone who walks into the "new" graphics forum wouldn't be there if they didn't want to learn.. or to share knowledge.

That post you linked came from some remote corner of 2+2.. "The 2+2 Pokercast Listeners NHL Playoffs Thread.. and is just one of perhaps hundreds of graphics topic posts that don't have a home.

That little girl vid went viral.. Last thing I wanted to see was a Harbaugh Bowl.. oh well..

I wonder if they would allow a poll-thread to measure interest in a graphics forum. Animated avatars are popular.
The learning curve is real steep when you gotta jump from Paint to Photoshop-type apps.. And many basic concepts are hard to grasp without a lending hand.

theres threads in ATF where you could go to ask for this but honestly it's going to be a waste of your time.

not saying your idea is bad or good just that it wont fly.

you could start a thread about this, but no wai it's ever gonna get its own forum. computer technical help has some of this information in it, and you could start a new thread if there isn't a suitable one already going.

I believe OOT has a thread where folks will make avatars for you.

i can make simple things, like animations. It's fun.

A graphics forum was a bad idea... although I'd be hesitant to post graphics stuff in OOT alongside threads like "How do blind people know when to stop wiping?"

This was in an interview with John Hawkes in the new Esquire. Didn't expect it...

$35 at amazon..

From the Inside Flap
"A fascinating, frightening window into the world of gambling in Las Vegas and the technological innovations that deliberately enhance and sustain the 'zone'--the odd, absorbed state for which extreme machine gamblers yearn.

Is it not true that the quality of all forms of entertainment can be gauged by how deeply you become immersed in "the zone"?

I cant decide which would be a bigger failure. If you actually believe this, or if you thought this would be funny

That's why Yoda's stupid brother shouldn't start threads when he's had a skin-full.

As an artist person (sort of), I agree. Making fun of me should be a bannable offense.
