I do this frequently: Seeking out the best quality of two media I've seen put together, in an effort to improve the quality of the resultant combined media. 

I had no idea, all this time I'd been creating recombinant PNG.

This is the first time I've encountered recombination, but I've seen the many versions of images scattered across the internet for sure --[[User:Char Latte49|Char Latte49]] ([[User talk:Char Latte49|talk]]) 21:33, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

On a number of occasions I've had to edit images given to me to submit to a resource. The original photographer ''insists'' on having a 'burnt-on' timestamp directly on the image (he's always done that, and won't accept metadata does the job); meanwhile, the resource's policies are heavily against such 'decoration' and moderators often reject such. When I can't easily clone a 'coverage' area from within the same image - and feather its edges to blend in - I sometimes find another original (but slightly different viewpoint) submitted image that has a sufficiently unsullied 'patch' to let it pass muster. That's a slightly meta-example, I suppose. [[Special:Contributions/141.101.99.161|141.101.99.161]] 23:17, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Sexual reproduction pictures on teh Interwebz mkay, but I lament a certain underrepresentation of amoeba pr0n. [[Special:Contributions/141.101.105.134|141.101.105.134]] 08:33, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

That's a squirrel?? Look at its tail - squirrels have thick fluffy tails, not that skinny one. And if it is a squirrel, it's by far the largest I've ever seen - unless Hairbun and Cueball are children. I was 100% certain when I saw it that it was a cat. --mezimm [[Special:Contributions/172.69.42.124|172.69.42.124]] 14:53, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
:: And we do know how Randall draws squirrels: [[1503]], [[1578]], [[776]], and [[1156]] all contain examples. I vote that this be changed. --mezimm [[Special:Contributions/172.69.42.21|172.69.42.21]] 14:58, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
:: I'm not sure that's a cat, the muzzle looks wrong to me. Some other feline, maybe. A 4-legged furry mammal with a tail, almost definitely. Could we ask Randall for clarification? [[Special:Contributions/172.69.22.132|172.69.22.132]] 19:45, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
:::Looks like a rat to me. Maybe a possum or something? It has a pointed muzzle. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.75.160|162.158.75.160]] 20:56, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
