See, This Is Crazy To Me. You Can't Tell Me People Were Actually Crazy Enough To Try To Find That...and

See, this is crazy to me. You can't tell me people were actually crazy enough to try to find that...and MANAGED TO DO IT.

AND WHAT MORE, I have the joy to learn that it comes from MY COUNTRY, and more precisely, The Pyrenees, from where my mom and all my maternal family comes FROM !!! This is a wonderful day for @areallyspecialsnowflake

The internet is a beautifull place man

The image used in the background of the Gravity Falls logo HAS BEEN FOUND!!

It's located in France!!

I made a thread on Twitter explaining the full story and how I even asked Ian Worrel and Alex Hirsch about it, but lemme run down quickly how it was found and where it is!

After 3 years of searching with some friends on and off, we had no real luck. I've been working on a video about it for a while but decided to try one more time. My friend @trickengf suggested looking at international logos as they may have more of the image available and sure enough...we found logos like the Japanese and Russian GF logo had more visible detail of the image.

From that, Tricken made a remake of the image and used it to find it. He ended up finding the source at about 3AM for me, lol!

My friend Fried Oreos then confirmed the image was old enough to fit the criteria of pre GF pilot, by determining the image was on the Textures website it was sourced from since 2008!

Then, my friend Alex M managed to buy the HD image and we were able to analyze its metadata for more info!

Turns out, the image, called "LandscapeMountains0009," was taken by a Nikon D70 camera on April 18, 2007!

THE GRAVITY FALLS LOGO IMAGE IS ALMOST 18 YEARS OLD!!

From there, we began looking for the location. The meta data had no location, but other images taken around the same time showed signs of maybe the location being in Europe.

After over a day of searching, Tricken, Alex M and Oreos FOUND IT!!

The location of the image is a mountain range near the town of Sers, France...near the border with Spain.

Exact coordinates of the closest viewable angle of the image is 42°54'23.2"N 0°06'05.6"E

This is a major discovery and one I cannot believe we did. While this search was started by me in 2021 with some friends, it was TrickenGF, Alex M and Fried Oreos who deserve all the credit for this discovery! They were the geniuses who tracked all of this down and were able to connect the dots to get to this point.

You guys are amazing and I am beyond grateful for all of this.

Finding this image means that fans can now recreate the Gravity Falls logo as they want with anything they want. For example, Tricken made this for me using the image :D

Or, you can do this, lol

We now have it!

For 12 years as we looked at the Gravity Falls logo...we were in reality looking at a mountain in France...NOT Oregon!

So, I guess this is a major W for France but sorry, Pacific Northwest, Gravity Falls is actually French, lol!

I still can't believe we found this. I'm so happy :P

GIVE ME THOSE. O-O

You know what’s some crazy $hit?

This fabulous bitch

She makes a shit ton of poses (like 16,000 or some crazy nonsense).  I used this lovely lady to draw so much as a teen.  Whether it was some nerdy pose for my Mary Sue as fuck OCs

or for full on fight sequences

or for tragic deaths of my OCs in the arms of a totally OOC main protagonist.  

this bitch hooked me up.  

And with the wildest, craziest stuff that you could see in your head but had no way or resources to reasonably draw like

or this

or this

DUDE!  INASNE SHIT!!  So I was using her for a pose reference and decided, you know what, I owe this bitch some cash.  Lemme dole it out for her.  BUT then, I looked and saw she only has 286 fucking patrons!!  This chick gives out free shit and spends countless hours arranging these shoots and setting this stuff up.  

I’ll fork up the cash, SenshiStock.  You’re worth it.  

Check out this amazing woman’s stuff, and get knowledged:  https://www.deviantart.com/senshistock

I know right ??? It makes me so sad, bc he has proven to have the skills to do it, but nooooo. Like, as a woman reading these comics, ...why ? Do you need them to look like that to tell your story ? No ? Then why do you do it ??? Do you really think men won't read your stories if they can't also jerk off to the female protagonists ??? Bro as a bisexual, I assure you I'm not reading thoses books to jerk off to the male characters (or the female characters)(even tho im a furry, like : im in it for the plot, that seems fucking easy to comprehend but apparently no ?) so I sure as hell know men aren't in it of the sexual aspect either. (or at least they shouldn't)

And worse, the """beautiful""" women clash so much with the overall art choices in blacksad. Like many say, they look uncanny, and ironically, I, in consequence, find them ugly as hell. They look so wrong it's frankly ridiculous. They look like human women cosplaying as animals for god sake. Why did you feel the need to objectify women so HARD that they dont even look like they're from the same universe as the men in Blacksad ? Its a comic noir about crime solving, its not porn, stop it.

Like look at her and tell me she's not BEAUTIFUL. The first time I red the issue of Blacksad centered around her it was like a breath of fresh air. She's GORGEOUS and Makes.Sense. Her name is Iris Allen btw

But also, she's a old actress so in Guarnido's eyes she's not desirable anymore hence why she's not drawn weirdly. Like..., im happy I got one whole issue with a lead normal-looking female-character in blacksad, but I also know its bc she's ""ugly""...wich is ironic bc she's one of the most beautiful women in the universe of the comics.

Juanjo Guarnido is clearly capable of drawing anthro women as actual animals but only when they aren't supposed to be attractive, which makes it all the more frustrating that the biggest issue with the style could've been avoided if Gaurnido wasn't as misogynist or at least if he was a furry

Remember when people where dressing up for the Minions movie ? This is it but better.

so...i just thought of a silly but cute thing us broppy fans could do on the day their wedding when it comes out as either a special or during another movie. why don't we dress up like we'd do at an actual wedding when we watch it? wear a dress, a tuxedo, style your hair and everything just to feel like you're part of one of the most special ships' big day 🥰 i know this sounds crazy, but it's just a suggestion on how to celebrate if it ever comes 🩷🩷🩷

Ok plz help, does anyone know where we can find the gentle song that always plays when rue and hob are having a moment?

Like there's always thoses gentle piano notes, it's a song both romantic and very sad.

During the d20 sessions we can always hear it when something is happening related to theses two and I really love it so does anyone know the name?

Please, this but with the Stan Twins
