I really want Jacob to win that "all or nothing" hand of cards...

Great captions, as always!

I decided I would try something to help me with my vocabulary, and use a grammatical pun that I haven't seen in years.

That's right, this caption is composed entirely of Tom Swifties. Enjoy.

Poor, poor Tom...

Nice one. Will Toms adventure end there? :P

Tom Swifty will live on. Just you wait and see. For now, a couple unrelated things.

Been a while since I did a tf caption. Well, here's one.

This one may not appeal visually to most nor is it lighthearted. It covers mature subjects. Personally, this kind of thing frightens me.

Don't worry, I'll be back to my happy-go-lucky self in no time.

I have a new image editing program. Heck, it's not even a program, it's a suite! Sweet!
Thanks to school, I've been able to play with Corel Photo-Paint (Draw not so much yet) for free. Yeah, I'm gloating.

But hey, here's the fruits of my playing around. These were made with much more ease and much less frustration than with MSPaint.

Confused This one is more of a snippet, a snapshot of a much larger story. I don't know what the story is, but I don't think I'd mind being in it. Smexy...

MSF Survival Guide 12 I've given up on the numbering for these things. I know I've already duplicated at least one number already, so now I'm just going to go with whatever number I feel like. So there.

BackandForthandBack This one... is special. Not only is it my first true poem in a caption, but it's mirrored. Read from right to left for a MtF transition, left to right for a FtM transition. Heck, you can keep switching, bouncing the poor soul in the poem back and forth as many times as you like!

Having a better program for this stuff helps. Knowing how to use it now, helps much more. I can literally make a caption work the moment it strikes me.

Send me your pictures. I can turn them into something else.

In the words of Caprice... Neat ^__^

Especially the last one, very original

Because Kaizer supplied me with them.

So cliche... Wow, this was so much easier to do... Thinking up the dialog was fun as well.

Djinni should never go to art school The picture by itself is good enough for me. Hopefully, this just kinda expands on the goodness.

You've seen what happens.

Send me moar.

The Back and Forth one is really neat. Good to have you back and captioning!

I liked confused the most.

Back and Forth and Back Again made my head hurt x_X. I'm not sure how many times I went back... and forth... and back again... somewhere in there all the potion gave me an OD.

LOVE the newest page in the MSF Survival Guide. Any hopes of getting these put into a book? Bestseller material.

Forum downtime equals a bored Muffin. What does a bored Muffin do?

It makes captions. This is the first batch in what should be many more. I apologize in advance.

Another story snippet, since people seemed to like the other one. This has no relation to the other in any way.

An odd caption for an odd picture.

I find it odd that there are so few stories that involve the families of the victims of TF.

The first caption was an interesting take on the world as was the third. The second was funny and a very cool way to do tfs.

[Dusts off the thread... and the whole freaking forum.]
There, that's better.

Oh. You want a caption? Well. Tough luck.

Okay, fine. Twist my arm.

This one really got away from me. Story, and a fully decked out TF.

There. Happy? I'm not.

This place used to be awesome about captions. And stories. And all sorts of content. Yeah, the boards are fun, but the creative spark is gone. I'd like to have an actual website to post stuff onto, but that's a long ways away. I'd be willing to help, but I would *COUGH*needtogetoneoftheadminstotellmewhat'sgoingonandwhatcanbedonetogetawebpageupandrunningforthesite*COUGH*

Woo. I need a losenge. Also, more to come, if certain people do certain things between my coughing fits.
