Here's another. If you get this reference you are a SF fan and/or old. [edit] Here's a link to the scene in question. [/edit]

I'd make one but Paint, Paint Shop Pro and GIMP all say the image in the first post isn't a valid JPG.

I'm gonna assume that the reason it worked for me was because I copy/pasted the image rather than save/open, because when I tried save/open, I ran into the same problem. In any case, maybe this one will work for ya:

Hrm, I can save and copy it normally. Maybe my paint is out of date? I'll attach it as a bitmap if that helps.

I can't certify that this isn't what Pix displays by default when it has a bad image (although I would hope and wish for an actual error message),

When I do Open Picture in New Tab, it starts out as a .jpg address, but Photobucket redirects it to a .html page--which is probably what everyone's image editors are complaining about.

For the image in the first post: $ file ./ambition_zpsseu0scmq.jpg ./ambition_zpsseu0scmq.jpg: HTML document, UTF-8 Unicode text, with very long lines, with CRLF, LF line terminators When re-named to .txt and opened up in a text editor, it's just as described^. I'd blame this one on photobucket running through two or three redirects instead of just serving the image like a normal site. (Not to mention it trying to run flash for some reason and taking more than a minute to load. Looks like a nightmare to use)
The "blank.bmp" looks like a pretty standard 24-bit bitmap, though.

I opt to revel in my own decline; my favorite trick in that regard is to pretend I don't know how the internet has (re)defined "thot" thereby creating dadpun double entendres while younger readers try to guess if I know what I'm really writing or not.

Looking at this image over and over... Annie's right hand is enormous. I think the proportions are correct but the line for the pinky finger was either omitted or lost to the edge of the table by compression. By The Way: At the time I post this post Runningflame is currently in the lead with 10.

Do I lose points for not having the right font? I don't know about points, but using Ale and Wenches gives it that little extra recognizability or something like that. www.dafont.com/ale-and-wenches.font
