I wish this was around a couple of days before someone made the hot pocket gif

[–]MsSandwichmaker 2 points3 points ago

Yes. Now I refer to it as "The Hot Pocket Snake"

[–]KingArya30 55 points56 points ago

as someone who knows nothing about graphic design or flash, when i see you do this shit, its like straight fucking wizardry to me. i just sit and look at this gif and wonder how the fuck you got the balloon out but kept the backpack. hogwarts is real and a national secret and im just a fucking muggle.

[–]distonic 21 points22 points ago

thanks, you had me looking all over that gif for a backpack ಠ_ಠ

[–]no_egrets 6 points7 points ago

The camera is steady, so the background doesn't move. You can just copy it in from earlier frames over the top of the balloon/water. Easier said than done, but not wizardry.

Edit: Not my work, guys. This was on the front page of r/trees this morning, just thought I'd share!

[–]slexd8 17 points18 points ago

This is my favorite

[–]Incorrect_English 6 points7 points ago

Wow. *golf clap and tip of the hat to you, sir.

[–]nevercares 5 points6 points ago

This made me chuckle a little bit, nice work

[–]TheyCallMeStone 2 points3 points ago

The eyes. They're so expressive.

[–]Captain_LargePoop 0 points1 point ago

That snake took one big rip

[–]dummyreplicant -2 points-1 points ago

:D

[–]habaho 57 points58 points ago

There's a hot pocket one floating around here somewhere.. It's hilarious

[–]Mexiflan 227 points228 points ago

[–]BlamaRama 39 points40 points ago

Someone edited it to remove the water.

[–]rugdoctor 4 points5 points ago

Oddly enough, you're commenting in that very same thread!

Really though, is /r/trees leaking?

[–]BlamaRama 0 points1 point ago

No, this is not the same thread. I was referring to the original thread with the hot pocket gif.

[–]haibanegatsu 0 points1 point ago

Just like that snake picture, some guy removed the water from it

[–]AndTheSonsofDisaster 43 points44 points ago

I'm just curious why the snake reacted that way.

[–]azza10 78 points79 points ago

Most likely it expected the balloon to be solid and was intending to bite and not let go, so it locked its jaw once it decided it had bit down.

[–]Dalek-SEC 5 points6 points ago

Someone said this when the gif was posted the first time. I think it's because they'd rather not bite their own jaw.

[–]worlddictator85 6 points7 points ago

Bit its tongue

[–]scottocs 165 points166 points ago

This is as creative as I got.

[–]xDusty 25 points26 points ago

I kind of hear a clashing sound like two swords coming together when they connect everytime..

[–]pa79 24 points25 points ago

Don't cross the snakes!

[–]WinstonMontag 19 points20 points ago

If the rattles don't touch, it ain't gay.

[–]Avohaj 5 points6 points ago

My teeth hurt when they connect.

[–]stunnalingus 28 points29 points ago

[–]Provenzer0 0 points1 point ago

OK. What program do you use for editing GIFs? I can't find a good FREE one. And nice job by the way.

[–]AeroRandy 212 points213 points ago

[–]scoofy 157 points158 points ago

but... upvote??? 665... uh, what?

[–]AeroRandy 107 points108 points ago

[–]dragonslayah 58 points59 points ago

In the gif, you downvoted it from 665 to 666.

[–]here_for_the_lols 47 points48 points ago

[–]dragonslayah 2 points3 points ago

[–]solace1234 3 points4 points ago

oh my god, 666 downvotes, guys.

[–]dragonslayah 2 points3 points ago

[–]phideaux 1 point2 points ago

context?

[–]Mandatory_Gingerlord 19 points20 points ago

I am now confused.

[–]elitemustache 12 points13 points ago

What is this wizardry?

[–]whootsley 1 point2 points ago

Lmao

[–]Magzter 85 points86 points ago

In before penis.

Edit: Someone should still add a penis.

[–]FlappyTheNarwhal 25 points26 points ago

Watch this gif with a video playing of a lion roaring.

[–]derping 29 points30 points ago

...that's exactly how my penis rises

[–]LeRenardRouge 47 points48 points ago

Oh gods that's majestic.

[–]cobalt999 6 points7 points ago

Why did you trace bitmap?

[–]AeroRandy 6 points7 points ago

Like I said, had little experience, I just did it cause google told me to, though, I understand why it's not needed now.

[–]cobalt999 4 points5 points ago

Well, good luck in your endeavors to learn flash! One of my best and favorite (as well as the first) adobe programs I know.

[–]RubyRhod 0 points1 point ago

Did you just do the whole gif in photoshop?

[–]strayclown 5 points6 points ago

I was really expecting an ultra sleek penis here.

[–]Ihaveanusername 0 points1 point ago

[–]leaflard 7 points8 points ago

it's like one of those arguments you pretend you're always winning in the shower.

except he lost.

[–]JayoxD 19 points20 points ago

Are you wizard?

Did this need to be done frame by frame? Amazing.

[–]Killfuck_Soulshitter 20 points21 points ago

Vector masks.

[–]NiteShadeX2 100 points101 points ago

I think you mean SPELLS AND INCANTATIONS FOR THOSE WITH THE TALENT TO CAST THEM!

[–]Lizardizzle 29 points30 points ago

I HAVE A WIDE VARIETY OF POTIONS AND ALCHEMY REAGENTS!

[–]aceair 9 points10 points ago

Ah, so you're an alchemist then?

[–]Ethosia 6 points7 points ago

I had you figured for a mage. I think you'll appreciate this.

[–]Alaunocara 5 points6 points ago

I read this in the voice of Dr. Orpheus.

[–]Legionaairre 8 points9 points ago

Tis actually Farengar Secret-Fire, Mage of Whiterun hold.

[–]thescarybear 0 points1 point ago

Its actually any court mage in skyrim.

[–]ZuFFuLuZ 5 points6 points ago

WHY ARE WE YELLING?!?

[–]dummyreplicant 6 points7 points ago

LOUD NOISES

[–]bradkraut 3 points4 points ago

Why AREN'T we yelling?

[–]ZuFFuLuZ 3 points4 points ago

THAT'S A GOOD POINT. NEVER THOUGHT OF IT THAT WAY.

[–]theswarley 6 points7 points ago

It's not too hard to do. It takes a while and is tedious, though.

[–]weaselstomp 5 points6 points ago

That was not helpful on any level. Upvote for you.

[–]CrimsonGear[S] 2 points3 points ago

Thou speakest the truth.

[–]CrimsonGear[S] 8 points9 points ago

Yep, frame by frame. Using Adobe Fireworks, I copied the background on the first frame, pasted it in a layer over every subsequent frame, and then erased the parts where the snake was (and also some of the foreground leaves) on each frame. Took about half an hour.

Of course, to actual visual effects artists (which I am not), this method is probably less like magic and more like a caveman smacking rocks together. No real skill involved, just tools and patience. :)

[–]larrycatz 23 points24 points ago

First time I saw this there was no balloon.

[–]wkoorts 6 points7 points ago

CRAAAAAAAMP!

[–]Obliverate 91 points92 points ago

[–]ieatbees 44 points45 points ago

Who is that lady?

[–]littlebitofevrything 165 points166 points ago

Ah, you are a lucky person. You are better off not knowing.

[–]mcartz33 31 points32 points ago

Ignorance certainly is bliss

[–]trsn 31 points32 points ago

I envy you.

[–]Evi1M4chine 10 points11 points ago

There is this South Park episode, where you can find out, without finding out.

[–]jean_baptiste 0 points1 point ago

[–]redheronDE 9 points10 points ago

Don't call that a lady.

[–]IAmTheGingaNinja 15 points16 points ago

That was whore-ifying

[–]BiGNasty91_ 7 points8 points ago

Udderly whore-ible

EDIT: Cow joke for IAmTheGinjaNinja

[–]IAmTheGingaNinja 5 points6 points ago

I really hope you were making a cow joke

[–]Mooseroo 3 points4 points ago

This would be brilliant if it actually popped her.

[–]stewyman 2 points3 points ago

A+ for effort, but I wish the snookie actually got bit or something. what was that supposed to be? smoosh smoosh?

[–]TheAckIsBack 13 points14 points ago

"I...GOTCHA...AH! Ah! Ah....I think I sprained my neck..."

[–]theclumsyninja 4 points5 points ago

requesting the snake bite into a chili and breathe fire everywhere.

[–]ABandApart 17 points18 points ago

/r/photoshopbattles would like this.

Edit: Turns out I was a minute late after someone else already said it.

[–]kaede1s 13 points14 points ago

It was actually 2 minutes. For the official Reddit Record, of course.

[–]xiomen 6 points7 points ago

Could I kindly get the original video link plzzz?

[–]verrtex 7 points8 points ago

It looks very similar, but it is not exactly the same. Look how the snake moves after the bite on the video and on the gif. How can it be?

[–]aablmd82 9 points10 points ago

[–]JamesR3d -2 points-1 points ago

I want it too....

[–]KenMixtape 5 points6 points ago

Would this work with the Skrillex gif (where he's dodging the bee)?

[–]MindlessDreamer 1 point2 points ago

If someone knows enough about photoshop to add cool things, I'm sure they're capable of removing the balloon...

[–]CrimsonGear[S] 4 points5 points ago

Eh, removing the balloon is probably the most tedious part; I'm just hoping to save people the time it would take to do it themselves. Also, someone who doesn't know much about photoshop or flash could make something good without having the distracting balloon be a problem.

That said, I mainly did this on a whim. I didn't expect it to take off as well as it has.

[–]MindlessDreamer 1 point2 points ago

Don't get me wrong, I think it's great you did this. I know people are lazy, so an extra step removed will get a lot more attempts :)

[–]BsFan -1 points0 points ago

No Nokia cell phone yet?

[–]AfterAscon 0 points1 point ago

Ray Charles Snake doesn't need anything added.

[–]tylermcbride 1 point2 points ago

I always thought it funnier to imagine the snake screaming to the heavens after popping the balloon.

[–]Lexie721 -1 points0 points ago

Evil laugh snake without the baloon already exists, it wad the origional post, called evil laugh snake

[–]CrimsonGear[S] 1 point2 points ago

Not sure why people are insisting this, especially when it's so easy to check.

You are a god among men, good sir. I foresee many hilarious incantations in the near future! I'd personally like to see a tiny Samuel L Jackson bitch-slapping him...

[–]adamantium3 1 point2 points ago
