It used to be a popular page on this site. Now it's crickets
It's tough to do that sort of thing week after week, month after month, year after year and not get burned out, even if you do take hiatuses here and there. It can be quite time-consuming if you really throw yourself into it heavily. Some gifs, depending on the number of frames and intricacy, can take hours to make. A bunch of farkers contributing and a lot of board visitors helped make it worth it. But as farkers faded off without an influx of new ones to replace them and with fewer and fewer visitors coming to the board, it became less worth it for the few remaining to keep going. It's not fun to devote a fair amount of your time creating a fark only to get 2 upvotes and the OP/requester sometimes not even coming back to see it or acknowledge it.

LSUFreek retired from GIF making
The board was still jumping after LSUFreek left. There were several epic threads (7thWard, Al Sharpton, etc.) that took place afterward.

Racist Boating Safety circa 2011 was the GOAT!

Currently debating if reposting my contribution to that thread will land me a ban.

Had actual tears in my eyes scrolling that one. Still think of Pat Dye's pants floating around the lake from time to time.

A damn fine choice. TPT is one of the resident legends.
If you have a request (like inserting the Hard Rock to illustrate Teedy’s incompetence), he can hook you up.
In short, there are some talented people that have put in some work on the fark board. He is one of them, and his stuff gets used on here quite a bit.
I don’t have many requests, but here are some others that he did for me:

and...(scope out the upper left hand corner below):

However...
This one is my favorite that he did:

It’s is just next level.
TPT...

One of the best threads on that board was the 2010 LSU football daily countdown thread would post absolutely terrible farks daily during the summer. It spiraled out of control into Maximus making him fark tennis matches between Jarret Lee and Jordan Jefferson with Chavis refereeing with LSU pimp nation in the front row with Rueben Randle riding on the neverending story monster.

Thank you for all the laughs man and I really mean that. I loved your work - and still do.

Used to visit there a few times a month and would usually end up shedding a tear from laughter.

I made this image of some random British girl in a bikini. Put her in front of tiger stadium and made the bikini purple with lsu logo. Two people have it as their avatar.

Crazy how people are banned from just one board.

Lootie was a great time. Putting him in everything.

I used to post there regularly when I had a job that required me to sit through lots of calls that didn’t really require my input. Now I barely have enough time to complete everything I have to get done each day.
