Is this the end of gondola? Will gondola go quitely into that meme night? Who will lock the doors after closing time? (Because gondola doesn't have hands)
I won't dump the whole thread this time, this is a space for OC and sharing your rare gondolas.

That's a rare one.

That one's pretty good.
>>1300414
Good, but the legs are too short and stocky.
oc tell me what you think
>>1300652
I've seen this one before.
>>1300499
I've always wondered, what is that blue thing under Gondola's mouth? Saliva?
a couple months ago I wrote this after browsing a late night gondola thread. I don't think it's that great but y'all may like it
http://pastebin.com/Rg3MnJwp
>>1300662
It's okay, but would be better if it rhymed, so we could sing it.
>>1300654
ive posted it once before like a few months ago but thats it, im happy if someone dl it
>>1300662
I like it.
i don't know why i've done this

this is some good shit though

That's it, 6 Gondolas so far :D
>>1299799
Don't you worry about Gondola. Unlike most memes that go quietly into the night Gondola isn't a flash gag meme, it's not meant to be funny or particularly entertaining, Gondola is about melancholy, nostalgia, the serene, loneliness, beauty and/or ugliness of the world, ultimately it is about the feels and as long as there are people who feel and want to express that feeling Gondola will live.
>>1300700
Haha thank you so much anon :D I have an online portfolio that has all the stuff that I've posted online extellus.carbonmade.com and also a YouTube channel, just google Extellus and it should pop up :)
Someone post Gondolabuster.
I thought I had saved it, but where has it gone?
>>1300586

what song(?) is this?
This one is one of my favorites. It captures the ambience of a shitty half-empty club's bathroom perfectly.
This is probably one of the best ones ever made.
>>1300414

I think the dorky chicken legs add a level of humor, even if they're not 'canon'

I see your great gondola and raise you an equally great gondola
>>1300714
Beautiful. Truly. You are talented
>>1300922
thanks man. it isnt a reference unless i made one accidentally.some anon asked what we could make witht the song, so i really though listening to this song while floating in a hot air ballon while looking at mountain would bee cool. i was really inspired by overwatch though with the flying cars so i thought that it would be cool to draw a car.
>tfw this gondola never gets posted
>>1300854
i downloaded this song after seeing this gondola. the song is disappointing because its mixed with all of this static and it fades in and out. i was disappoint
>>1300658

Any jazz hip hop gondola's?? Like Nymano
>>1300685
Love your stuff, man, but I was wondering if you might consider going back to this one for a second and adding some smoke coming out of the chimney?
I want to make a Gondola, but I'm just wondering if there's a way to make light look good in a Paint Gondola.
Like, is there a filter type thing a=that you can draw over a picture to make it look lighter, as if light was being shined on it without having to actually choose a slightly lighter color and put it over it.
If you know what I mean.
>>1302182
not in paint, no. you gotta know how to draw if you want to do that 100% paint
>>1302334
Any other free software I can use?
>>1300688
good shit
Man, Gondola is still one of those things I just haven't "got" yet. Where did it come from?
It's like some weird evolution of pedobear/spurdo, but it isnt meant to be creepy or funny. It just is.
How is this do what when?
ive only ever made 1 of these
>>1299839
I've seen this one before, but is it a movie reference or just OC?
>>1302391
It happened not long after some guy on /int/ made it to mimic spurdo. Just kinda spread as people photoshopped him in old paintings and such. It's one of the only pure memes that will probably never hit mainstream.
500hrs in paint
>>1299799
>>1302171
Haha I'll have to since you asked, I was planning on adding smoke when I first made it but I forgot in the end... I'll definitely do it tho :D
>>1302737
Thanks, my main man.
>>1302839
Requesting a song sauce for this
>>1299804
Reminds me of Space Engineers honestly.
I made my first Gondola.
>>1302972

Gondola was not a mistake
Gondolas are relaxed, harmless creatures that observe their environment. They rarely interfere anything, but just keep observing. They rarely talk, just look around and smile. This makes them very different from other creatures such as spurdo, that feel, pepe, yoba, etc.
Gondola is the silent walker. Having no hands he embodies the Taoist principle of wu-wei (non-action) while his smiling facial expression
shows his utter and complete acceptance of the world as it is.
>>1304788

I think we should all not worry so much about how Gondola is perceived or produced by the rest of the Internet.Frankly, we can't control what the internet as a whole does with memes, just look at Pepe the Frog. We should concentrate more on maintaining the sanctity of these threads on this particular board on 4chan.

I think the band name is Dongen. The Album is black with a colorful design on it.
>>1308146
Awesome.
As much flak as ODST gets it's probably one of my favorite games ever in terms of atmosphere.
I've showed them to a girl that i like. She said understood what i meant when I told her that some of the gondolas hit you really deep and sometimes make you quiet for a while. She doesn't understand it and is more caught up by the animation style and that it is a community contributed thing.
What software do most of you use when making gondolas? Not oc
>>1314512
we warned you they don't understand.
but
>showing autistic 4chan meme to a normie female
what were you even thinking
>>1314512
you have to participate to really understand it. Having someone show it to you doesn't do it or it would have been taken by normies already
>>1312056
Agreed. That's what we've been doing for the past year. It's weird to see people still worrying about it turning into Pepe 2.0
>>1302391

>>1304615
As far as I know, gondola originated in Ylilauta, but was created by a recurrent Italian poster. He named it gondola somehow expecting it won't be accredited as a new Finnish OC if it was going to spread like Spurdo did and to give the idea it was created by some Italian guy. Gondola was meant to be the opposite of Spurdo, instead of "EBIN :DDD", gondola was just a silent being and an observer.
Later, Finns started to spread it on /int/ threads and that's when edits became a thing.
>>1300499
I really like the song in this one. Anyone know what it is?
>>1307563
Does anyone have the source for music on this? I've asked before but people haven't been able to tell me, and i can't find anything like it on youtube or anything.

Just realized it goes black for a couple frames in the middle. Whoops
Many moons ago in that original thread I made and posted two poorly done Gondolas and never posted them or saw them posted in any of the later threads.
Then I was having a pretty bad night and was scrolling through a gondola thread when someone posted my "Gondollo 11" and said it was one of their favorites, put a smile on my face. I don't have it to post from my phone though...
I just saw someone posted my first gondola here
>>1312994
First time I've seen it outside the first thread. It's probably dumb to make an award ceremony-level thank you speech over this but just knowing at least one person out there saved something I made is cool. Thanks anon you made a nerd happy
>>1326989
that's really sweet, anon. Thank you.

I love how, in ones like this, just the slightest hint of flatness on the top of the eyes gives the impression of melancholy or sadness, even though the Gondola does not really look sad.
It's a really good way of subtly expressing emotion in something made to not be explicitly emotional.
>>1306951
By origin, he's pure American.
Though a frog named Pepe certainly sounds French.

I was banned for making a thread about Yotsuba.

I feel like this would be better with music you'd more likely hear out of a car's radio.
>>1326917
I like this one, because I imagine Gondola's going on a quest to save his girlfriend or sister, and imagine when the song heats up would be a good time for a series of pictures showing him fighting monsters.
I'm thinking of a specific word, it's on the tip of my tongue.

We better migrate to full chain for a new /wsg/ if this one dies. Gondola must live on, even if our home dies
>>1324724
I do to an extent, but I also enjoy the way gondola is used in conjunction with the music as well.
this thread is so comfy.
I just now disovered there is gondolas thread on /wsg/.
They can't delete this board
idea you can take:
gonola in Native American Indian tent with fire and Indian music with drums
>>1329163
Same.
Also, how do you guys feel about /wsg/ being on the chopping block, because we take up so much space?

It's a shame. 4chan is an image board, after all. And we share animated images here.. I don't want to hurt anyone but what Hiro needs to get rid of is containment boards like /lgbt/ and /mlp/.
>>1330372
It's just cause we take up the most space.
Hopefully he opens up a new Donate or Die type thing, instead.
Guys I have an h264 video that I'm trying to convert to webm to post here. I'm using Firefogg and I'm having a really hard time getting it down to the filesize requirements without totally fucking the quality. What do you guys generally use to encode to webm?

>>1330461
If that entire image is OC then you've got a really great style; fits the comfy vibes perfectly.

>>1330825

I wanna say it's by Ennio Morricone, but I dont know.

Pepe is a diminutive for José in spanish, about as common. Hell, the first spanish constitution was called "la Pepa", while we ridiculed Napoleón's brother by calling him "Pepe Botella"
>>1330992
We amount to most of the stored files in size ( >>/qa/731329), and yet, because of the exclusivity of audio, we contribute next to nothing to the rest of the site. Gondolas have been doing fine, but out there there's a bunch of morons that don't know how to correctly convert videos nor how to trim the fat. Hell, they'll even tack audio onto everything they can, needed or not, making it exclusive to us!
We're leeching off of 4chan, and sad as it might be, it'd be one of the few sacrifices I'd understand. I just hope Hiro gives us fair warning so we all can get our shit together and move away before deletion comes.
I guess that, if the worst comes to pass, we could stay at /mu/ or /int/
>>1331175
What if Hiro made /wsg/ and /gif/ into "4chan Pass Only" boards?
>>1331182
>what if we made something that's been free for 13 years into something you have to pay for?
I can even smell the hypothetical shitstorm from here.
People would leave the gif boards for any better alternative, and they'd end up depopulated and dead, they'd be as good as deleted. It'd bee a PR hell for Hiro, too.
If reducing filesize and pages proves not to be enough it'll just be better to part ways, and come back whenever 4chan can handle it
I was making a series of Gondolas a while back, but lost the Japanese and British ones I did.
;-;
>>1331197
Okay, how about /wsg/ and /gif/ are deleted, but 4chan Pass users can upload webms with sound in other boards?
