WOW

So the problem is that Gary does not cross his “T”s but he does dot his “J”s

Because he is "junior", he uses small "j", which would be dotted.

But because he is a lame-assed, weak-hitting, knuckleheaded fielder prone to run obtuse routes to any ball hit to the outfield, he is unfamiliar with the concept of ‘straight’ and he is unable to draw straight lines anytime, anywhere. Therefore, he is incable of crossing his “t’s”.

Looks more like

Clay Mario

I like the new nickname

It might turn around his career…oh probably not.

Clay Mario

Very intriguing price
So let me get this straight

GMJ doesn’t have to be in the original background?

Judging by the examples given from the Albert ones, I’d say that yeah, the background doesn’t have to be the crowd and he can be cut out into something else. Like a certain scene from Titanic or something.

....and how DO you do it?

I suppose you have to pay and that Microsoft Paint will not get the job done….

I will be doing mine using nothing but MS Paint and Paint.net

lmao… MS Paint? If someone were to do that in MS Paint, I’ll buy them a beer.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 is the tool for me.

Dude, ALL my photo editing work is predominantly done using MS Paint.

Including this, this, this, this and this. All of which have been posted here in the past.

And, of course, this guy puts us all to shame!!!!

Wow

not too shabby for MS Paint. This though, is the best MS Paint image I have ever seen…

WOW!

Except for the two guys on the dock, that is perfect!!

You could try the GIMP.
that's what I've got...but I'm a GIMP wimp
NO RULES

it just has to be awesome enough to impress JIm (wihalofan).

So far, my favorite!
You always wanted to be a ballerina?
Of all the photos posted so far...

…which one do you think would piss GMJ off the most if it was posted over his locker?

That’s my standard of the “best”…and this is the Winnah!

Just admit it, what size tutu do you wear?
What size?

I thought tutu’s were made from spandex…you know one size fits all?

Maybe you can educate us on tutu sizes…I’m starting to think you are too too interested in tutu’s.

Traditional Tutus are not made of lycra

but there are cheapie lycra-trunk versions available ready-made. I costumed dancers for a living. One year I altered 20 catalogue tutus for a group of realtors attending a convention in New Orleans. All men. The things didn’t come quite large enough for these guys and I had to add more stretchy fabric.

The following year they all went to the convention as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.

 I have no idea. It was the SF bay area.

Gary gets a** handed to him by Joe Calzaghe

Random … but here is my humble effort

Excellent.

Also, quite topical, since Calzaghe will only fight boxers who are shells of their former selves.

True he does not want to give my Cousin......Librado Andrade......a fight.

Andrade is going to have to settle for a remach against Lucian Bute!

Prepare to see my noobish work! LOL

How'd you photoshop me into that picture?
Why would anybody want to win a card signed by HGH?

I guess you could use it as toilet paper in a pinch…

guess you flunked out of charm school
My 20 Minutes of Boredom. Ill make more when I have time.

my fav.....

well done

I have no idea what this means...

Just wanted to somehow join the fun.


(The green oversized plaid bow tie was a last minute addition.)

was this from the Stonewall riots?
Iranian election protests.
The bow tie is a classy touch.
OK here....be kind. it's my virgin attempt at GIMPing

Is that a big zit on Gary's cheek?
I think that's

a tear

obviously not MY entry.....it's the hubby's--he's da pro

I see why you married him

That’s awesome!

didn't like mine?? waaaaahhhhhhh
I just have a thing for clowns.
Awesome

Ronald runnin away from 2009 MJ

Is that Gary running away from being traded to the Cubs?
The juice(s) are loose.

Ladies and Gentlemen...

The Angels FAILETTES!

And click here if it’s not animating.

Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you

The Friggin’ Flags Flyin!

Mo was better than I thought he’d be for us… def agree about the finley one though.

Too much HGH to be a clone trooper

Been awhile since I've chopped a photo

This was the best I could do on my lunch break.

I cracked up at this!
corsairs are sexy

someone bring back the gull winged death.

Saw a Corsair in the air last year at the airshow in Margate

And it looked awesome.

Gary is just not a very good Landing Signal Officer, it appears.

And the winner is...

FLIGHTDECK GARY!

Mine

Did you come up with that line...

“You took the contract, start making contact”?

It’s an instant classic!

maybe you should use it

next time you do a rhyming/poetic comic strip

Yep. Original lyrics by Stirrups. Music by Baron Andrew Lloyd Webber. Book by Gary Matthews, Jr.
here's mine!

Not sure why this idea popped into my head

but it did.

I hate to bring the movie back into this but...

I think this one

WINS!

I know I'm way too late

but I kept thinking about this all weekend, while I couldn’t get to a computer.

nothing to see here
