we've seen so many Pepe edits but has any anon ever wondered what's the original pepe looked like? no, I'm not talking about the comic boy's club nor the feel good/bad man Pepe. it's about the pioneering Pepe that can just be edited with paint tool and paint bucket on MS Paint. after using Ai to search for the Pepe (painstakingly) on internet archive as far as 2005, introducing Pepe! :DD
But how to tell that Pepe is original?
1. tiny file size, which mean little to no data tampering
2. aliased, jagged lines to draw each strokes of lineart with no smoothing
3. solid consistent colors with no stray pixels and uneven colors
even 4chan stripped out most of the meta data and with the hashes check, you can tell it's original by those 3 checklist. enjoy!
p.s. don't tell plebbit, fuck them. I've blocked that domain since a long time ago.
