It's generally a large-point Impact font in white with a black stroke on the text.
You can do this in photoshop's blending options for the text layer.
What I do is place the text, select the text with color select, grow the selection by a pixel or 3, then deselect the text; and paint the selection black.

Stroke is easier, imo, because then you can edit the text and the effect updates.
But if you do it your way, why do you deselect the text? A technically better way to do it is to create a new layer behind the text and fill. Then you could link the layers so you can move the text easily and have the stroke follow.

But if you're making two layers out of it, wounding the spacing between letters for the white layer have to be bigger so the stuff actually fits in the black text?

fun read. I enjoyed catching up on all the drama
Ha! Interesting coincidince- in pt4, this paragraph:
"We didn’t want to see ads on the website. ... I mean, who wants to see advertisements on a website?"
-appears directly adjacent to the AdChoice box ( at least on my browser.)

Not to knock Jose but if the traffic was that bad at 8BC, why hasn't that transferred and become an issue here at cm.o?
The answer to this question will help us all make better 4Chan pics.

There's always archive.org Wayback Machine.

Does that back up the media too? Last I checked, archive.org didn't mirror resource demanding content like MP3s within pages.
It'll be good to have some of the articles, though.
