HF Habs: Official HF Habs 23-24 GDT Schedule Sign up Thread- March Games Available

​

Welcome to the 2023-24 HF Habs Official GDT Signup Schedule Thread!​

A new hockey season is upon us! After one of the shortest and wildest offseason in recent time, the Habs are back and so are GDTs! Featuring creative legends such as Moen in Glory, Roy Munson and sandviper, GDTs are a staple on our board. But you don't need to be an expert in photoshop or even technology to do a GDT! From MS Paint to old fashion hand draw and scan, all ideas are encouraged! That said there are some holy commandments that predate my GDT tenure that should be followed​

The Holy HF Habs Commandments
1- Request 1 game at a time. There are enough games for everyone.
2- Try your best to post your GDT 6/12 hours before game time.
e.g. If game starts at 7PM ET, post your thread between midnight and noon. For afternoon games, try posting it the night before. If no GDT is up at 1PM, it becomes available.
3- If you can not post your GDT on time, please let us know ASAP, so we can find someone else to do it.
4- Please add a minimum of helpful content to your GDT. Team Lineups, starting goalies, Official game time, TV/radio broadcasts, etc. We all like minimalistic or "lucky" GDTs once in a while, but it's good to offer other posters basic info about the game
5- Be creative!
This thread is also open for ideas, suggestions or questions concerning GDTs and how to make them.

A new season is upon us which means its also GDT time! Looking for volunteers to help us get through what is bound to be a long year where the GDT threads are sometimes much more entertaining than the actual games!

I'll take:
Mon Oct 23 Montreal Canadiens vs Buffalo Sabres 7:00pm
and
Sat Oct 28 Winnipeg Jets vs Montreal Canadiens 7:00pm

I'll have a GDT up shortly, for tonight's tilt against WAS, since there were no takers.

 

[donghabs98]

I'll do the Devils game

 

[Runner77]

Delete — just saw that the game I was going for is taken.

What game might that be?

 

[Runner77]

What game might that be?

Vegas game, Oct. 30th. I had a meme concept but I'll just tack it on the thread.

 

[Runner77]

Did tonight's CBJ game since there were no takers.

You can have the Vegas game if you like. I can take another one in November

That’s real nice of you, thank-you. If you don’t have anything already prepared for the Vegas game and if it won’t cause you to lose work you have on hand, then that’s the only way I would accept your gracious offer.

Sounds good, I dont have anything in the works yet so the game is yours!

 

[Runner77]

Sounds good, I dont have anything in the works yet so the game is yours!

Thanks so much, I’ll gladly do it.

 

[Runner77]

While I mustered a GDT today, it wasn’t the output I had planned. The main meme was made a couple of days ago thank goodness as I was faced with the gif resizing site I have used for years, stopped working last evening, so I couldn’t produce my usual fare.

The resizing site I use allows the work product to be directly posted on Imgur, which is super convenient.

To ensure that this doesn’t happen again, I would ask all of you who post here if you could please provide me with alternate links of any site that resizes pics and gifs online for free and which allows for the final product to be reliably hosted. It’s important that the resizing capacity is ample enough.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I use: Animated GIF resizer (free online tool)
Go to the resize tab and then the "optimize" function and compress it.
Also, GIFRun - Create High-Definition GIFs and WebP images from YouTube and many other sites. can be a great place to send a youtube link and capture a few seconds
for an animated gif. After saving these as a gif you can upload to imgur

 

[donghabs98]

November games are up, I'll take Nov 4th and 11th

 

[Runner77]

Did tonight's Yotes game, there were no takers.

 

[Conflicted Habs fan]

And I'll take Wed Nov 22 Montreal Canadiens vs Anaheim Ducks 10:00pm

 

[Runner77]

Posted tonight's GDT vs. the Bolts.

 

[Runner77]

Didn't see anyone take tonight's game vs. the Wings, so I did.

 

[donghabs98]

Anyone able to do today's game? Im having some computer issues. I can do tomorrow's GDT instead

Another able to do today's game? Im having some computer issues. I can do tomorrow's GDT instead

So sorry to hear that. I’ll try to help.

So sorry to hear that. I’ll try to help.

Thanks! Poor timing as I'm in Montreal for the game. Hoping some troubleshooting and installing some updates will help.
