Original for reference:

Fresh screenshot, added a few pixels, brightened a bit (actual scene very dim), found an approximate text generator with effects from fontmeme, and colored the lettering.

Ok, so I'm torn on this, the drop shadow/3d effect of your remaster makes it easier to read, but there's something really funny about the font you used in the original...you know those plastic alphabet letters with the magnets on the back that started off as a kids toy and are now used by adults as fridge magnets? Yeah, that's what the orig reminds me of. It just feels more effective from a trolling perspective.

But the color saturation and more effective type treatment in your remaster really makes it pop! And I hate using that word, it reminds me of my past life in marketing but it does fuckin pop off the screen like it's going to smack me in the face. It is undeniable and impossible to ignore. That rainbow is faaabulous

OG: 9/10

Remaster: 9.5/10

A+++++ good remaster would review again

Thanks. Though I can't take credit for the original and have no idea who to thank. Presumably, someone from the place we don't talk about.

Ah, well I hope they appreciate the upgrayyed. It's def an improvement!

Funny you mention that, I was gonna make a reference to The Bad Place (reddit) recently, and I realized it can have additional meaning for a lot of us 10F'ers. We have like double internet refugee status lol

It's okay as long as it's consensual.

This is hands down my favorite reaction image

Same. I think the “pop” in the remastered text helps the funny because it draws your eye to read the text first then realize who is standing behind it and how perfect his face is.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.
