Good morning campers! It's the weekend, which means it's prime time for me to Many times this year, I've read the forums and found myself wondering what exactly some of you have eaten for breakfast that's inspired you to post what you did. Personally, I enjoy warm, crunchy toast. And I know I'm not the only one who likes toast. Some people love toast so much they claim to see things in their toast. And they then sell these pieces of toast on eBay for ridiculous amounts of money to another toast lover. See where I'm going with this? I'd like to know what piratey visions you guys see in your toast. So that's your challenge for the weekend. Make toast. But not just any toast. I know, you're thinking that 2 days isn't enough time. These mysterious toast images don't just appear to anyone, and there's no guarantee that they'll happen this weekend. So you have my permission to "encourage" these images to come out, in fact, that's exactly what I'd like you to do. You should start with one piece of bread, and create your masterpiece either pre or post-toasting and then take a picture of it and post it (or a link) here in this thread along with your pirate name and ocean. One slice per pirate, please. How can you create a piratey toast masterpiece? Here is a handy guide to a method involving butter. You could build a Zuse. You could also try imprinting or stamping something into your bread before toasting, like this device. Or you could use food coloring, strategically scrape off burnt parts, or whatever else works for you. Surprise me. It would be nice if the toast is still edible, but it's not mandatory. If you do not have a toaster, or if your toaster is off-limits, you may make digital toast with a program of your choice (artRage, Paint, etc.), somehow create a picture on it, and post that as your entry. It's up to you how you create this. I will tell you that digital toast will need to be sufficiently compelling in order to stand toe to toe with the real stuff. --- An explanatory note: The linked references are not meant to offend or be blasphemous in any way. These just happened to be the best examples. A cautionary note: Do be careful, and do not do anything that could cause harm or burnination to yourself or others. Do not put anything in your toaster that does not belong there. Fire bad. ---------------------------------------- Crotchetiness by Dexla. ---------------------------------------- [Edit 2 times, last edit by Glaucus at Dec 2, 2006 1:49:50 AM] |

Glaucus, should we specify if our entry is digitally made or home-made? I can definitely see a reason for knowing if the toast was made through a paint type program versus the real thing. ---------------------------------------- The name is Synful. ------------------------ Avatar by myself |

<3 Glaucus Now, may I use any piece of carby goodness that inspires me? Perhaps I would like to lay my image out on a hunk of Ciabatta. Or maybe I find a perfect medium in the flakey goodness of (half) a Croissant. Would that be okay? I'm sure someone out there toasts their Croissant before eating it...

I swear I put it in the original post, but in case it's not clear, One slice of bread only, please. If you want to take it apart to make a pyramid or something else, I suppose you could. If you've already made something with multiple pieces of bread, post it somewhere else so I can admire it!
Sure, why not?
Aye, I'm aware bread is broad term. I would strongly prefer the more conventional stuff, so I believe ciabatta would qualify, but croissants are pretty iffy. Less questions, more toast! Speaking of which, I'm hungry. ---------------------------------------- Crotchetiness by Dexla. |

Glaucus, can you confirm something for me? I was at the store last night, and in the bakery section [wooo, bread!], I found like the coolest bread ever. However, I didn't know if just taking a loaf of french and cutting it lengthwise would still qualify as a "slice of toast". Errr... example. (------------) <-- a very bad loaf of bread, but still. If I cut on the line and used all that for my scene, yes, no, disqualified? ----------------------------------------

You sure about that? Seems entirely digital to me, especially since your bread is the exact photo here minus the skull and crossbones, oh and flipped horizontally. ![]() ---------------------------------------- The name is Synful. ------------------------ Avatar by myself |

Ok so after my masterpiece ( http://forums.puzzlepirates.com/community/mvnforum/viewthread?thread=3449&offset=560 ) i was quite disappointed i couldnt use it, and couldnt even think of something to do for a single slice. But with what little time, imagination and bread i hadn't already used up i managed to come up with something.. So i got a hook after some sinky sinky fun... would rather of had an eye-patch and only being human was slightly disappointed. I never thought the ungreatfullness would come back and haunt me though! And not only in my dreams.... but after i woke too!! entry: http://i14.tinypic.com/4cxannt.jpg ---------------------------------------- Dance like nobody's watching.
