Cleo256's Television Without Pity Pixel Challenges

    California Governor

    Make an ad for a TV character running for governor of California


It was really hard to find a decent picture of Dr. Forrester. The picture I did find inspired the "Mwa ha ha" at the end.

John Kerry effectively disproved this particular theory on how to get elected. I'm pretty sure I'm not glad to be wrong.

This is one of the few images that is different from what I posted. I had this idea that it would be funny to show a campaign for Zoe versus Jasmine from Angel, because they're played by the same actress. But the Jasmine poster wasn't funny on its own, and the concept wasn't all that funny either. So this is back to the original concept that I had, which was just Zoe.

I thought the words "make California strong again" sounded like something Dukat would say. Turns out he really did say "make Cardassia strong again" in one episode. So yay for me.

Hint for new pixel-challengers: avoid red at all costs. Jpeg compression makes red look terrible, and red text becomes nearly impossible to read. See how small the print is on some of the other pictures and how you can still read it, yet on this one it's huge and yet fuzzy? It's because of red.

It felt wrong to use any other color here, though. Red really matched the source picture very well.

These are all actual Dr. Cox quotes, slightly tweaked to match the topic.
