That seems to work. Thanks.

But it seems strange that the previous version worked fine for me the first time I tried it and posted it, but the next day it didn't. :? Could it be cookie related?

Hate to be the bearer of bad news...again...but it STILL isn't working.

It works for me at the moment. I suppose that tomorrow, it won't work for me either. :? How about when it is embedded in this post using the img tag?

Not sure if this is the right area, as this is artwork more then a comic, also this may have already be posted, but it's too good not to show!

it is posted here somewhere. It's from a book called "The Fantastic Strange". Only a brief mention of the scene though. it's been awhile but I think he dreamed that scene.

That's pretty great. I wonder, is the giant rescuing them or placing them there?

Rescue. I actually bought a digital copy but am not sure what happened to it. Searching.

Ah, I remember. It's a digital Kindle copy at Amazon. That was in 2017 but I still have access to it.

Limited ability to download or anything, but I can still view, screen-capture and paste.

Here's the section related to the image. The giant is sitting near a campfire with several others telling his tales, including the "mighty maidens of the morass":

Thank you for digging that up. (I kind of prefer to imagine that he's gently setting them down to their dooms...)

I especially love the front-and-center girl, with her wrist-to-forehead damsel in distress pose.

It's one of those great images that leaves you to draw your own story. The girl dangling from his finger makes me think of Sarah Michelle. :mrgreen:
