Dai. Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 ...or not, but do you really want to be that lame? Okay, here's the thing: I've decided to get Billie Joe tattooed on my thigh, but I'm having a really hard time finding a picture that is right and usable. I want something like this: But I need a larger picture, cause that one is too small to use, considering the tattoo is supposed to be twice as big. I am not quite comfortable starting a thread here asking for help, but I've already gone through all 50 pages of the Billie picture thread, the entire GDA vault, Tumblr, Google, and I've posted it in the requests thread here but no luck, so this seems to be my last resort. I need good quality and large pictures of him in that position. I got Alex's permission to make this thread and I ask of the rest of the team to please leave this open for 2 or 3 days, I know it's not the right place for this request but I am really running out of options. And in my defense, it is Green Day-related But seriously, please.
Jon Benjamin Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Watch bullet in a bible on your computer you can probably get a screenshot
Harry Potter. Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 I don't know if my suggestion would work, but you could try maybe resizing the picture that you just posted above and see if it's still high quality like that. If it doesn't work then I don't know...
Dai. Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 Watch bullet in a bible on your computer you can probably get a screenshot The screenshots I could manage from my computer are not large enough. And also for some reason my computer does not take screenshots from videos I am playing (unless they are on a web page). When I past it onto photoshop or paint or whatever, it shows a black screen. I don't know if my suggestion would work, but you could try maybe resizing the picture that you just posted above and see if it's still high quality like that. If it doesn't work then I don't know... You can't enlarge a picture to twice its size and still have it be good enough quality for a tattoo. I am basically asking a few kind souls to look through their personal stash of pictures.
elisa Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 I'll go through my green day folder tonight and see if i can find something
Dai. Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 ask billie gently. Idiots who aren't even funny - the one thing I haven't missed about GDC. I'll go through my green day folder tonight and see if i can find something Thank you!
Florence Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 ok. I found this: but he's blond and has a funny facial expression
Dai. Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 ok. I found this: but he's blond and has a funny facial expression That is better than nothing, thank you I saved it.
WestboundSign! Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 I went through my entire picture faults, found a lot of these jumping pictures.. but unfortunately, none of them was big enough. I'll have a look again later.
Sarcasm Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 pause, print screen, open paint, ctrl + v. I like this one though
fukingcounterstrike Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 How about Tre instead? Everybody loves Tre
spark in the night Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 a full body image would be best. Images where his body is cutoff wouldn't look great being a tattoo. I'll see what I can find
Sarcasm Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 this is huge, something you can use? Oh and here is some 1080P concert footage, there might be jumps in there. who knows
iScottie Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Edit: I like Sarcasm's picture the best (above me), but here are some suggestions (I hope they help!):
Dai. Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 pause, print screen, open paint, ctrl + v. I'm a little more computer savvy than you might think. this is huge, something you can use? Oh and here is some 1080P concert footage, there might be jumps in there. who knows Thanks, it's a good size! Not sure about the quality, but I'll save it and ask the guy if it works!
Sarcasm Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 I'm a little more computer savvy than you might think. Thanks, it's a good size! Not sure about the quality, but I'll save it and ask the guy if it works! you said you couldn't take screenshots, so I assumed you meant the function in VLC. I figured someone could use the body in the picture I posted and the face from another. The BJ monster if you will.

Dai. Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 there's gonna be someone out there that has uploaded high quality screencaps to a photogallery, i'd imagine Thank you for an incredibly helpful post!
Zelda Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 I found a few, but I don't think they would be big enough. Would you still liek for me to post them?

And in my defense, it is Green Day-related But seriously, please. I have a Green Day tattoo its horseshoes and handgrenades kinda like Tres but not LOL. I also have the plane from the dookie cover. So im interested in this. Please show us when you finally get it!
Anja Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Great idea for a tattoo. I suppose if you have looked through the GDA Picture Vault already, there's no need to post pics from there? I used to save them all on my external drive so a large amount of pictures I owe are from there. I shall have a look for pictures from different sources though.
Malleus Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 I can't help, but good luck I guess. Billie should be on everybody's thighs.
Zelda Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Here they are. If I run across any more I'll be sure to post them. Good luck!
