Nah, blur in Photoshop is too sketchy just to kill jaggies. I actually ended up doing a 255 tolerance Magic Wand and inversing the selection. I expanded that by 1px, then deleted. Posted above is the result. The uniform is textured in the original, I don't believe it was supposed to be 'grainy'.

Browser had the old one in cache yadda yadda yadda.
The Big Red reference is from some time ago. This African-American guy would hand out Big Red gum to guys/girls in socially awkward situations, and it would help them work things out. At the end of the commercial he says 'It looks goooood on ya.'
It was a very obscure reference.

You know, I remember those commercials now. Weird.
How do you remember shit like this Daedelus, did you and Tempest joke around about it for a while or something?

Nope, not that I recall anyway. Tempest and I just happen to remember a lot of the same obscure crap. It's really weird sometimes.

I searched far and wide and found it about a few pages in doing a google image search. Earlier there was the same one, but larger, but I didn't have the software to resize it with me so I searched further and found the smaller already fit one.

Anyone like my new sig? I find it's easy on the eyes.
If I ever get better at photoshop I might be able to really make something out of it.
