Had this idea off and on again for a while now, but this time I happened to be in front of a computer when inspiration struck.
Made with GIMP 3.0.4. Yes, I used the awkward {selection + normal fill + smaller selection + erase fill} method to draw the circle. There was also a bright spot in the image under the text that required a drop shadow.
I need someone to explain what this has to do with Harry Potter. Off by one, too?
Voldemort made 6 horcruxes so his soul would be in 7 pieces.
Diadem, Locket, Goblet, Ring, Diary, and Snek.
Harry was accidentally made into one as well, thus the off by one.
Cache invalidation: The locket was cached but later substituted, resulting in stale information. Furthermore, a layer of indirection would ultimately conceal critical updates to the assumed ownership of a certain principal object.
Naming things: He wanted to live forever, but stuck himself with a name he invented as a teenager, and later banned its pronunciation. Also, another of the principal objects had a highly misleading name that tricked both the one who first received it and others later.
Off by one errors: u/chuckleslord@lemmy.world got it right, the auspicious number was spoilt by careless dilution. Meanwhile, the bearer of the third symbol escaped doom at his pleasure and contributed many an off-by-one (or two, or three) error to the occupancy of various rooms in the future.
I still find it insane that gimp doesn’t have something like a circle tool, is it really too much to ask?
Can’t you just use the ellipse selection and do a trace selection?
Edit: Stroke Selection is the proper name
There are many way to do it, but I just want a single-step solution, preferably one where i can then adjust sliders to hone in the look with live preview
Didn’t 3.2 add vector tools? I haven’t used it yet but I’ve heard that was one of the new features.
3.2? It took 7 years to get from 2.10 to 3.0, and now they’ve gotten to 3.2 in just a year? :o
HP sucks
So does Harry Potter
What’s with all the pictures from that racist movie where they put a Star of David on the floor of the goblin bank?
Cause your mom be gobblin’ these nuts
Why is your name a reference to the most pedophilic religion in modern human history, also the subject of a movie by a man who is a major financial supporter of Zionist causes?
Alexis Kennedy is a bad person, but I don’t think his video games are the most pedophilic religion in modern human history.

Have you run the numbers? There’s a serious competition there.
I’m sorry for reminding you of an unpleasant experience. Though the offense you take it to be is remote in my eyes, I too was disappointed in various ways by the filmmakers’ adaptational choices.
The pictures were intended to support an additional humorous interpretation of the caption, which was a good joke on its own but probably too familiar to bear repeating without fresh context.
