Pauline Acquart - Retenez Son Nom

[fish]

A treasure trove of gorgeous Aquartiana.

That's a beautiful pic Dave.
What's it from? Not Guy de M is it?

Love the bustle too.


Les Lendemains is in theaters from 17th April.
Hopefully there'll be a dvd release in the next few months as well.

That's a beautiful pic Dave.
What's it from? Not Guy de M is it?

Yes, very much so, on both counts. TV episode from 2011...so L'Acquart would have just turned 20 [I think].

Sat there screencapping it for some time.

[fish]

Great for a screencap.
I wish I could find more HD stuff for screencaps. That extra definition really makes for good results.
This is a jpg from the GdM show so I know there's HD stuff out there.
Just wish I could find it.
(Errrr, have you still got the link for that one?)

[DMt.]

It's a still from the Youtube link you posted.

I put it through several iterations of colour reduction in Paint Shop Pro until I had a 256-colour gif that came in at the right filesize for direct upload [and wasn't all blocked-out].

For the benefit of the unsubscribed, here's the rather queenly screencap under discussion;



I should have just cropped 14k of background off this original 270k/24-bit .png! D'Ohh!!

[fish]

Oh my.
That came out so beautifully.

Paint Shop Pro and I had a severe disagreement based primarily on my lack of intelligence and we haven't spoken in years.
Maybe it's time to break the ice again.

Bourka: "Hurry up and grow a brain Fish."



Fish: "Yes dear."

Viz. the above image - I was astonished to learn from it that [apparently] if a young lady looks after you in a way that suggests she's thinking seriously about having you assassinated, it means she's interested...

... if a young lady looks after you in a way that suggests she's thinking seriously about having you assassinated, it means she's interested... ...

Wow. Self esteem through the roof.
They all look at me like that.



Thanks for the link Dave, looking forward to reading them all.

Yeah, me too! I had no idea I was so popular with the ladies!

How sweet to be the bearer of good news for a change...

We giant spider alien overlords so seldom get the chance.

Sometimes, when I contemplate the ineffable beauty of an Earthling such as l'Acquart Glorieuse, I could almost have pity on Humankind, and renounce my career of planet-conquering, all-enslaving, ruthlessly predatory greed and violence; but then I suppose we must all play our chosen roles in the Creator's great drama, to the best of our poor ability.

[Dahls]

I mean... whatever path the overlord chooses... doom or redemption.. we're all open to compromises

[fish]

... all-enslaving, ruthlessly predatory greed and violence...

But they're your most endearing qualities Dave.

[DMt.]

'Dave' is a silly name for a giant spider alien overlord. I should've been called, I dunno, Arachnus or Terrorphant or something.

Though looking at a pic of a weepy Acquart could make even a giant spider wish himself to be a particularly cuddly Teddy bear instead.

[fish]

That'd be "Arachnus Dave" eh?
Just like "Tyrannosaurus Lex".

As opposed to being a "Cuddly Fish".


Or a "Dishevelled Henriette".

[DMt.]

Way to silently radiate, Acquart...

[fish]

Stunning, stunning, stunning.
Exquisite portrait material, lovely w*rk.

Thought I'd found a copy of "Une Partie de Campagne" on French Ebay but it turned out to be a composite DVD of a different section of the Guy de M series.
No Acquart = no purchase.
