There was a random encounters poster, with a white tiger underwater, if anyone has seen it around and wants to link it. It wasn't bad.

People really, really need to learn that you don't add an apostrophe when you're making something plural. Unless it's a number (say, a decade or century), like the 80's or the 1900's.

You know, I think we had a whole thread of these around here a while back. I'll do some fishing and see if I can find the thing.

EDIT: In fact, there are SEVERAL of these threads that were around. Check them all out HERE. (By the way, Google's site search is awesome - just included "site:giantitp.com" in your search and it'll search just this site for you.)

You may want to edit "bandwidth intensive" into the title, this will probably quickly reach the point of crashing connections.

My contribution to this thread:
Quote:
Originally Posted by The readme from this download
This is a collection of 1,622 RPG motivational posters from the three threads about them on www.rpg.net.
The original thread was closed because the massive amount of visitors
(Something like 16 million on the first thread and countless more in the others.)
caused the server to pause each time someone browsed the thread.

This collection hopefully will offer some help to those who missed major parts of the first few threads,
as well as offering the chance to get the whole collection for download.

I am quite certain that I did not get all of the posters, but this should be a major chunk.
Also, I am sorry if a few non-related posters managed to make their way into the collection,
but there is really not much I can do about it.

This collection does not include:
Harsh language, all swearwords and vulgar comments have been edited out of the final cut.
The altogether too many sets of posters referencing random obscure anime shows/characters/near-hentai junk with lame captions like
"Hero" and a stereotypical quote from somewhere else in the thread.
NSFW-style or near NSFW-style posters such as the often re-occurring "**** Anything" poster from the second thread.*
[*This includes the massive amounts of posters about breast size increasing damage,
there were probably enough of those in the thread to make a entirely new thread/collection by themselves,
and probably did somewhere in the depths of the Internet. (4Chan no doubt.)]


The posters I collected have been edited for language and similar, but I still would probably not recommend
letting children view it without going through it at least once to see if you find the pictures too graphic
for your tastes. Some of the posters included have a few somewhat graphic images, such as the explosive skill poster
with the beheaded fellow and his pool of blood, or the two "female stormtrooper pinup" posters,
but who you share this with is completely up to you.

Some points of interest include the "growth of the tunnel poster" poster, which is a animated .gif,
the set of posters from the Evil Overlord Tips Lists, (http://www.eviloverlord.com/)
and the 37 or so "tunnel-poster" posters chock full and overflowing with self-referential humor.

Is is possible to set this collection as your screensaver on windows, by selecting "My Pictures Slideshow"
and changing the location to look for images inside this folder.

All the posters are named with the relevant main tag or two, so searching for "multiclassing" inside
the folder should give you a number of the most relevant posters.

A preview of some of the poster subjects:
Garry Gygax, Shadowrun, Disguise Checks, Evil Overlord Tips, Bards, Necromancers,
The Schools Of Magic, Conan The Librarian, Cohen The Barbarian, Rincewind, Deckers,
Mr. T, Chuck Norris, Hit Points, Player Archetypes, Character Archetypes, Dm Archetypes,
Batman, Predator, Alignment, Alignment Debates, Gun Fu, Social Fu, Kung Fu, Deja Fu,
Redundancy, Poster-Tunnels, Star Wars, Star Trek, Constructs, SuperHeroes, Who Shot First,
Monty Python, Monty Hall, Steven Colbert, Vin Diesel, College Gamers, Critical Hits, And A Great Deal more!


And if you don't like the ones I found, you can make your own here: http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/motivator.php


Thanks and credits go to the subjects and creators of all the posters, gaming systems,
and everything else referenced in this collection, I just organized it.
Special Thanks goes to RPG.net, for hosting the threads, Aaron Williams, who originally linked me to them,
the poster creators, for sharing the inspiration, flickr, for streamlining the process,
and the many free image hosting websites for allowing us to make this possible.

Thanks for the fun!

I remember seeing very similar pic (tiger, underwater, similar but not identical pose)

"Mah associate has informed me that you are in possession of His Bukkit!!"

There was also the Housecat- Commoner motivational poster, same site.

Sheriff of Moddingham: I think the primary repositories have been linked. Could people please post links rather than images. These are pretty sizable images and while they are hosted elsewhere, they do load every time even if under spoilers.

Also, please make sure that they are board appropriate.

Perhaps the post to which you are referring was fixed or edited. I don't see anything wrong with it. There is a single apostrophe that is being used in everything's, signifying "everything is". I'm not sure it's 100% appropriate usage but there is no pluralization issue there.

I agree with your initial statement that it would be beneficial for people in general to understand proper apostrophe usage.

On topic: I can't seem to find the image, but I once saw such a poster bearing an image of the Death Star with the subtitle: "LAWFUL EVIL -- It gets stuff done"

I remember another: "CHAOTIC EVIL -- Sometimes the bad guys aren't misunderstood"
