In all honesty, it does look pretty cool.

[–]Tombfyre 0 points1 point ago

When I first saw that image, I thought it was some kind of large sky lizard akin to Godzilla. He's just shrouded in smoke from his latest rampage.

Perhaps he'll stomp on all the churches! :D

So the makers of Adobe (the makers of PhotoShop) are god?

Just so you guys know, that angle's going to piss on everyone.

The cloud on the right side appears to be Yoda. I thought Jebus was on the right hand of Gawd.
