**claps hands** That's great! I was hoping to find something like that but one that would spin my head around

Now you know what Self goes through when I get mad and let loose on him

Thanks!

But given the firestorm of controversy over his Charlie Chaplin ad banner, I think it would be best to get his permission before posting it. Don't wanna get my first banning or something.

The first person to be able to include me in a movie poster (and something clever, not just a name credit), deserves a prize!

Wait, I probably shouldn't laugh, since the image isn't PC. "That image is wrong on many levels, and you mock human misery. "

But now I don't feel so inclined. In the future, remember that when you post your pic on the internet, it becomes public domain and people can do what they want with it.
Can you please remove the picture than? Thank you in advanced. I am erasing all of my pictures on my server ASAP. Thanks for the advice.

I don't want this... can I be frank with you? I don't have a humor right now... I am not in a very good mood either. Please don't make a big deal about that.

You are the one that "made a big deal" out of this...

A polite PM to Boris would have been a smarter play. Instead, you opened yourself up to more "fun" by posting it in this thread.

Well... If Boris does it fine... it's up to him.

I hope you've learned your lesson. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Or to put it differently, you reap what you sow...

I don't remember Moon over Tropico. I remember a movie about a place called Parador with Richard Dreyfus.

Tropico the video game is a very cool game though... I love being a dictator!

Day late and a dollar short. I said if you had done that first, I would. But your (as normal) repugnant overreaction to things and inability to acknowledge you're being a jerk to people has made me up the price:

Fair is fair. If you want me to remove it, then you must get everyone else who has used your pic in one of these images to agree to do the same, and also delete all of your pics from the Apolyton forums (including archives and community forums). Then I will no longer consider your pic public domain and remove the poster.

(note: I will not be held responsible for someone saving the poster I made with your face and reposting it themselves.)

In the meantime, I think we should all say no more about it, as it is ruining an otherwise hilarious thread. Next poster, guys and gals!!!

Um...that's what the Moon Over Tropico poster was spoofing, as Fex is obsessed with Tropico. He just took the Moon Over Parador poster and altered it.

Boris... you might want to PM that to him as well...

Since this thread is getting close to 500, my intention is to close the thread for awhile, and do some housekeeping.

I will delete ALL non poster posts... and only leave the posters... so that the thread can then be reopened and the "fun" can continue. It will also make it easier for people to view the excellent work that has been done to date.

If anybody has a problem with this, speak now or forever hold your peace... I should be doing this later today at the rate this thread is being posted to.
