Title: Welcome to the Humorous Captions Board
Post by: Andrew on July 11, 2007, 10:33:57 AM
Welcome to the humorous captions board.  The goal is for someone to post a screenshot from a film, then for everyone to create funny captions.

I will attempt to post screenshots every so often, identified as "Badmovies.org Humorous Caption for DD MMM YYYY."

Suggested Guidelines:
 - Use an image large enough for others to recognize details, but not so large that it will bog down anyone visiting on a slower connection. 
 - Please adhere to normal Forum Guidelines (http://www.badmovies.org/forum/index.php/topic,113524.0.html) and do not post images that are "Not Safe for Work."
 - A thread should only contain one screenshot, in the first post.  This is to avoid confusion over which image is the subject of the caption. 
 - Centering your image by using the centering tool, or by simply typing the center tag yourself, is an aesthetic consideration.

A post might look like this:

Subject:  Funny caption for screenshot from "Plan 9 from Outer Space"

Post:  What can you come up with for this one?

"The 1950's 'Shazam!' serial featured both Captain Marvel and his wife, Mrs. Captain Marvel.  She was later dropped from the plotline and replaced with a money in spandex."

The code I used for the image to display looks like this:

Thanks to Ash for reminding me about this and giving me the kick to get it started.
