Erm ... How should I describe this?

Chris MC · 02-13-2003, 11:08 PM

Part of a calender series, I removed all text to make a very uncomplicated desktop.

Less is more

Chris.

If you looked up the word 'booty' in the dictionary this would be the accompanying illustration.

Chris MC · 02-13-2003, 11:37 PM

Unfortunately my Oxford Concise says;

booty /bu:ts/ n. 1 plunder gained esp. in war or by piracy. 2 colloq. something gained or won. [Middle English from MLG bute, buit exchange of uncertain origin.]

C'mon, Chris... you have the Internet. Use it!

From Bartleby.com comes this (definition 2):

The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. 2000.

booty2

SYLLABICATION: boo·ty
PRONUNCIATION: bt
VARIANT FORMS: also boo·dy (-d)
NOUN: Inflected forms: pl. boo·ties also boo·dies
1. Slang The buttocks. 2. Vulgar Slang a. The vulva or vagina. b. Sexual intercourse.
ETYMOLOGY: African American Vernacular English, from obsolete Black English booty, body, perhaps alteration of body.

Shouldn't that be boo-TAY in this instance.

Even I (certified straight female) am prepared to state "Damn, nice ass."

Chris ... you seem like a nice fellow and all, but you don't get out much, do you?

Nothing But Net · 02-14-2003, 01:25 AM

BTW this is a Photoshop forum.

Chris, just removing text isn't going to cut it in this class.

We want to see art, be it good or bad.

Your assignment for the weekend is to remove the thong from the above picture, retaining all other lifelike aspects, as it were.

Report back here when you have made some progress.

Chris -

what was the original image? You oughta be emailing these to me so I can host 'em and not worry about the Cellar's bandwidth.

1280x854 & 1600x1200

JPEG is fine

And · 02-14-2003, 08:20 AM

Well, damn. For some reason I can't host my image... hold on...

And · 02-14-2003, 09:04 AM

Here ya go. It's brutal, I know, but my first try at bootyshoppin'.
(I'll move this to my host as soon as I figure out what the hell's goin' on with it...)

That Guy · 02-14-2003, 09:38 AM

Damn nice job!

And · 02-14-2003, 10:45 AM

heh, thanks... I'm not satisfied with it, though, but I guess it's pretty decent considering I did it here at work, and it's not easy to fiddle with a giant sexy bum on your screen while people walk behind you on a regular basis...
