maybe a blood splatter on the board?
or a speech bubble with "please sing my petition?"

How much do we want this to be making Ross seem like a violent badass, exactly? Isn't part of his brand that he's a nice dude and that vitriol is more of Mald's thing?

I like it. Also his right side of his facial hair looks more...bald? I know ross doesn't have IMMACULATE facial hair but it seems a little TOO spotty. fill in between the chin and cheek

OR make the other side look good.

And if you feel like an extra, maybe draw a small gravestone on the right blank side saying "THE CREW"

 

[y a t s]

Now that you've brought this up, I can't not hear it. Especially from that clip. It's as if he didn't do anything for sibilance and made it worse by notching out the entire mid range, so all you get is his bass bullshit and then a bunch of crunchy noise at the top.

Doing production work, I have trained my ear to listen for holes and shelves in the spectrum. Since the filter cutoff never changes, it's plain as day when he gets fired up, since his natural pitch goes well above this cutoff and his voice loses all body whatsoever.

Having a good ear is a blessing at times, but a curse when listening to podcasts.

Oooofff
any changes or suggestions before i ship it?

Good art but I feel there's too much going on with the text. Maybe put the "do your part" inside a transparent black box?

Don't do this, it's already a noisy design.

 

[Pierre D'Olnique]

Natural sound simply doesn't work like this. He can't really claim this is some noise filtering setup, since you can see he lets the high-end hiss from his S and H sounds bleed through, leaving this big notch filter-like hole. If anything, his audio has the most high frequency (noise range) content out of anyone on the panel.

I went through some snippets featuring him talking and it sounds about right when I unhook and put the audio pitch at 115%.

nah it's hard to read SKG

 

[Lie Eater]

Anyone that has been here already knows this but for the lurkers.
The likelihood that mald reads this thread is almost guaranteed and i can bring up a few good reasons. There is the obvious {RETARD FILTER} that lets us know when any malders come in that has raised with every incident. There is also the fact that he addressed in one of his youtube videos the second life shit but did so awkwardly through twitter posts yet when he brought up maldavius figtree he showed the tv head version alongside more of his usual badfaith interpretations. Yet those are KF elements.
But more than anything is that this fucker cannot go a second without responding to any and all criticism even on 9 year old videos and several idiots have already mentioned in his grooming server that there is a KF thread about him. So he is aware but has the intelligence of a teen to know better than to mention adult websites like KF to his parents. The mention of SA also just exemplifies that hes aware of it but knows how absolute the danger KF brings is. had he not been who he is and mentioned early on that there was misinformation spearheaded by KF and just simply admitted he was a furry/wrong then this never would have happened but thankfully cows cannot do anything aside make milk.

not sure about it

I agree. Ew.

Plus it obscures the "stop killing games" which is already barely visible. I'd almost say extend it upward with a text bubble saying "STOP KILLING GAMES" in bigger letters like the "do your part" bit. Just because autists with a low attention span might miss the small text. Clear communication is important in the 5 second attention span of twitter.

POSSIBLY a QR code to the EU petition itself in lower left.


Also despite the criticisms, your work IS APPRECIATED

Yeah... or make the text borders thicker? Either way 10/10

Yeah, I think the QR code is a really smart idea, and if it isn't, maybe a stopkillinggames.com URL somewhere is. I wonder if the Stop Killing Games line might not need to be asserted more strongly if you just remove the "peititon" at the top of the clipboard and size up the "Stop Killing Games" text? I think it's implicitly understood by the rest of the context that it's a petition, and that'd let that aspect of the art also communicate the idea.

Edit: the picture is larger than I thought, it's probably fine even if you don't do that. But yeah, I think the black box is a bit noisy.

If you're in photoshop you could do a light drop shadow on the text. that will help to give it a bit more depth while being subtle

I had spare ad credits and wanted to play with it to see what happens.

For the record, no relation to Ross, no relation to any of his campaigns, this is something I did mostly because I can, I want to, and I like experimenting.

I agree, the petition is unnecessary. It's implied at this point.

Great work regardless, don't take anything I say about it as insult.

 

[Onomatopoeia]

His hijinks seem to be making it back to the InfoSec community. He responds trying to explain malware to one of the industry leaders on malware research and archiving.

You can read about them on Wikipedia of all places.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vx-underground

This is the most hilarious exchange I've ever seen. You can really see the Wikipedia surface level knowledge spew out of Jasons limited mind hence he had the links ready at a moments notice to show off how real and what a true infosec expert he is. Too bad that even while skimming through Wikipedia he made some mistakes such as speaking of "non-volatile" memory which just means your memory keeps the data after you shut off the power. Call it semantics but it's retarded either way and would rarely if ever happen to an actual expert.

While the surface level facts are totally okay the way he uses these terms just doesn't make any sense or rather isn't usual. VXU's reply also screams of ChatGPT but I'm not too sure about their involvement in modern research so there's a chance it's actually someone who can just very eloquently explain complex matters while using em—dashes. It beats Jason's wiki knowledge for sure tho be it AI generated or actually real.

i massaged Ross on twitter and im going to sleep if you wanna take a crack at it heres assets, be my guest

Site doesnt load for for some reason at the moment despite my VPN so if someone wants to send it to i would appreciate
but ill do it tomorrow

MIGHT be good to strip the current petition design and just put "stop killing games" in bigger text, the "do your part" shoved left, and a big ass QR code. Clearer, less noise, conciser. Being concise is whats big here, let any dumbass figure it out in 2 seconds.

I think this is a sensible idea, it's more compositionally harmonious.

@DefinitelyNotMe just fyi he already said ANYONE can use the SKG logo anywhere AS LONG as you aren't trying to like, sell tshirts or some grifty ass shit. (basically don't SELL it)

Hes already confirmed this.

As for posting it, hes fine if you post it, but maybe share it in the discord so EVERYONE can share it. He doesn't necessarily want to manage EVERY single thing, hes juggling enough. You're good.

Both were said in his recent Q/A stream pretty explicitly

I might also recommend, ONCE ITS FINISHED, post this onto the steam forums as art for postal 2 / 4 since RWS has expressed approval of the movement, AND its postal themed. They will like it

 

[Nothing Is Written]

Can I just remind everyone that Ross is literally the most innocent, honest, well intended, man on the internet? I swear he's the second coming of Christ but he fell on his head when he was a child and forgot he was the the Son of Man.
