Some pictures do that. I don't really know a way around it sorry, but someone else might

Stick them in photobucket, that's what I do.

You could try converting it to a jpeg file using something like Gimp.

Hey guys, page 2000 will be here soon. We're not doing a full celebration, but let's try to keep the page itself full of pics and good wishes instead of random chitchat.

So let's slow down when we get there, and everyone keep refreshing so you know what page you're on (you can't tell if you've rolled over to the next page unless you do). Regular chit chat can commence again on page 2001. There are 25 posts a page.

 

As I completely lack an artistic talent (cept colouring in, I'm AWESOME at colouring in!), I will happily admire, drool if need be, cheer and praise the wonderful pics & art that's posted

THe forums just don't like me, it seems. I'll just have to admire from afar.

 Maybe add it to photobucket or something like LolaLei recommended and then just link it?

I think advisors won't leave no matter what. And the one companion who stays loyal no matter what you do is Cassandra. Because these people formed the Inquisition, and they did it, because they have this big goal of saving the world, stopping the chaos, etc. Other companions seem to have their own agendas, but the core of the Inquisition seems to be above pursuing their goals at the cost of the world's safety. Besides, the Inquisition will probably just fall apart without them.
I don't think he left. The Inquisition is just more important right now to him, but he probably still thinks of himself as a templar. BB says he is still processing what happened, and he probably haven't thought yet about what his life will be after the Inquisition. Will he go back to being a templar? Will it even be possible after what he saw, after he experienced that level of authority, after he interacted with all these different people, heard what they have to say? After he saw that Circles don't work? I imagine Cullen may be a bit lost, but what he knows for sure is who he is, and who he was, and that is a templar. He may cling to that for a comforting sense of stability, and draw confidence from his past. And that's why he still wears templar gauntlets, although he's technically not a part of the order at the moment.

 

You bring up an interesting point. I haven't even thought about the possibility that the advisors might not leave at all. Whie it makes sense, I somehow hope that it isn't true because the end doesn't always justify the means. Personally, I would like to see that even the advisors can stand up to the Inquisitor if he/she does something that goes completely against their belief system.

 

And about Cullen leaving the templars: Well, maybe he just left temporarily and it's up to the inquisitor now to either convince him to return or not to return. This could be part of the Cullen's storyarch. Similar to Leliana's story in DAO where you could convince her to  join the Chantry again, if I'm not mistaken.

Finally and damn it Eric 43 pages of Cullen thread before I found this!!!!



Welcome and have a cookie.

Posted in proxy by me but created by Ericander77 who is not available to post it himself.

one thing to keep in mind with this one is that Eric is not the original author of the manip. He just added cookies. We need to be careful of attribution here.

After thinking about it, I'm fairly sure that he is. Some might cite the precedent of Kaidan simply not feeling comfortable with stating his attraction to a male Shepard yet, or Anders being similar in DA:A, and both of those are true. But Cullen doesn't state his attraction to a female Warden either way; instead, he gets flustered and embarrassed and silly, and would clearly like to hide his attraction but is equally clearly unable to. For whatever reason, Cullen is simply not into a male mage Warden, and that leads me to believe with reasonable surety that Cullen is straight.

 

The in-character explanation could be as simple as the male mage just wasn't his type. Just because one has a sexual preference doesn't mean one is attracted to every single individual of that gender. Obviously they didn't know at the time they made DAO that Cullen would be a romance option down the road so his preferences probably weren't fully fleshed out yet.

 

Not to say he's definitely bi, but I see no reason he can't be.

Well, the male mage has the same personality as the female one, as a base... so what would lead to every single possible physical appearance of the male mage not being Cullen's type physically?

I have just experienced a moment of horror, when after reloading thread had only 2! pages. #deep breathing

The other part of what I said - that Cullen wasn't designed as a fully fledged LI at the time, so they almost certainly hadn't fully fleshed out his character in that area.

 

The game's world state wouldn't have every possible warden, just one. So that warden would simply not be Cullen's type, if they decided that as a fully fledged love interest this time, he's bi.

Did anyone ask his writer what his food representation is, yet?

I don't think so!

Good point, now we can put all the little pieces in place. What if he is not a shortbread. Ah, the drama

Edit: I just realized I don't have his author on twitter and dai page does not load on my tab. Anybody rememers the name?
Edit2: nvm, got it

[R2s Muse]

o.O That is such a good photoshop job. I'm trying to figure out where Cullen's face ends and the model begins. I mean, I know where it does, but like. That's a really good photoshop job. 

 

(also the picture is really distracting. I dunno whether to stare at the shortbread or the abs.  )

That's Eric for you, he does GREAT work.  

...and incidentally, this is why. That part isn't Eric's work; the manip was done  by :

If you link to pics on a photobucket, with some settings it adds "~original" at the end of the picture name. You need to make sure the URL link to the pic ends with .jpg or .png or whatever type of image it is. With photobucket, just delete the ~original part and it'll work.

Also, there's that fact that straight/bi/gay aren't states that are super clear cut, where if you are bisexual you are equally attracted to either gender at every point in your life. It tends to be more of a spectrum, at least that's the way it's been with most of my bi friends. A good friend of mine, for example, preferred women, almost exclusively, until she was in her mid-twenties, and then had a boyfriend for a couple years, and spent a few years after that where she tended want to date men more. It could be that Cullen is bi, but has a big preference for women, or could only really imagine himself with women when he was younger.

 

Truth be told, I'm kind of leaning toward the fact that he's straight, but won't mind if he's bi, and would even prefer it for the sake of all his lovely male fans.  I just hope that if he is it's handled better than the way it was with Anders - where he specifically mentions his male lover (and not just someone random, but someone we just met, rather tragically, in his recruitment quest) only to male Hawke.  It was a bit insulting, honestly, since it came across as if it were something either he or the game devs thought I wouldn't like or wouldn't be able to handle as a female player wanting to romance him.

Guys, can we please not open up this debate yet again. It's extremely divisive and folks start trotting out offensive stereotypes based on one data point.
