I think the title pretty much says it all. I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that my wife doesn't stumble across this blog. She's lurks TL, but I'm not sure that she reads through the blogs.
Basically, my wife is a huge Foxer fan. She thinks he's adorable and cute and everytime he's on I become her "Man on the Side" and Foxer takes my place :D
So as a personal gift to her, I wanted to make her a Foxer poster ^_^ The problem is my searches have yielded jack squat for a hi-res picture of him (or at least one I like and I think she would like).
Anyone have or know of any hi-rez pictures of Foxer? I'd be forever in debt to you!

Hahaha. I SWEAR IT'S NOT FOR ME It may sound wrong, but every year I try to do something for my wife that she won't expect and this year it's a Foxer poster!
This one might work. I guess it would have to be smaller.
I'm not looking for a 3k+ rez, just something that won't look like complete ASS if i blow it up into a poster 11" x 17" (which is standard) but I could go a bit lower.

How about a picture of him getting out of a really low to the ground car with his skirt being too short? I wonder what color they are. /ponder
If you want a pic of Foxer you should definitly look for one where he's wearing the pink hoodie. Wasn't there one from some qualifier? Actually I think that might've been with some TL'er next to him :/

Foxer was known as Clare in BW, he played for MBC so there might be some old pictures of him having to do with that, he was also one of the guys that the korean pop singer faced in order to try to get his pro license.
This is probably a ridiculous proposition, but how great would it be to actually reach lil´Boxer himself f? I mean there are plenty of teamliquid readers in Seoul, and some take photos of pro´s. Of course it´s off-season now, so it´s a lot harder to come by the guy. But why not try it? Tell someone to say pretty please at the prime house and get some high quality pics. Maybe he likes the idea of being a special christmas present, or he´s creeped out. You´d need someone who can break it down to him properly.
The hi-res GSL videos are 720p, right? If so you then you cloud try playing a GSL video with the GOM Player and using its screen capture feature to make a photo.
Don't know how good it will look scaled up though...

lol the FOXER link wheat re-linked is pretty hilarous if you use google chrome translator... I think they call Foxer "Frank".
from the page: "Frank is the 29th, Sony Ericsson Star Craft 2 Open Season 2 After 2nd Round of 16 match 2 sets of 2 jelnagadongguleseo sinsangho (TSL), was victory"
Why not make a poster out of multiple small high-res photos? Like, 1 photo for each emotion or some shizzle like that, 10x foxer > 1x foxer, am i right?

Ohhh this might be a good idea. That way I could not sacrifice rez. I like.

There´s gotta be some wheat-love in Seoul.
Also a good idea. I'll have to see who I can lean on out there. If I managed to somehow get an autographed picture she'd probably shit her pants :D Which won't be fun to clean up, but it'd be worth it to see her face!
I've reached out to Artosis... we'll see if he has any access to the PRIME house.

I'd try lilsusie since she's friends with Sea, who might know Foxer o.o
That or NeverGG who always took high quality photos of progamers for teamliquid, although I think she sorta stopped doing that. Other than that one of the current pros, or possibly Tasteless or Artosis.
I specifically remember Foxer (Clare) posing in a photoshoot in Hyung Jun becomes a pro gamer. i couldn't find any high rez screenshots of it though...
I put the feelers out to Tastosis and Gimble to see if they have any hook-ups. Otherwise I think I am going to go with the whole, take a bunch of pictures and put it into a "mini-poster" size (18x11) to print and laminate. It would be epicness to get some sort of autograph from the man himself but either way... I just wanna see my wife giggle uncontrollably on Christmas day.
Now I gotta see if I can bust out some PS skill :X Thanks for all the pictures, you guys helped me out big time.

Well I've got several pictures. But now I'm wondering if it's possible to get an autographed picture from him. The poster is going to get created regardless, but the guys in the blog thread got the idea in my head that getting something personalized would be the icing on the cake.
Is something like that possible lilsusie? Artosis said I was about 2 days too late, and to ask Nick. But I haven't heard back from Nick yet.
Ah, I just called him and he said he's not working with PRIME anymore and doesn't really go out to the house often. sadface. I won't be able to get anything for you before Christmas unfortunately.

I appreciate the effort :D I got some great photos anyway so it will end up being awesome. Thanks for your help regardless!
