This is a weird thing ive been seeing for as long as i've had leaked petje folders, all of the pictures are in varying, odd resolutions and some arts might have even been remastered quietly but unmentioned. this first art is 1238 x 1636, but another from a different leaked folder is 682 x 947? Plus it has different shading and it has the petjeaf logo? I dont get why these differences exist.

I think the only way to get the maximum resolution is to find a way to scrape massa's drive.
Nobody has ever provided the full resolution petje's until now, but massa disabled downloading the files in his drive however.
So we need a way to get them

picrel 1 and 2 are from different leaked petje compilations, but picrel 3 is what the real resolution should have looked like.

The images have already been scraped for their maximum resolution and can be found here: https://mega.nz/folder/vjgQCZLa#EllbJ7g2Kp2FGfCSJYdSjA (Post where this link came from >>9251)
But that's what I've noticed too, and from what I can gather it seems like oldfags before us could not get the images in higher quality, so they opted to use AI and removed the watermark for it instead of doing the whole rigmarole like what >>9351 did.

Which now makes me wonder if there are higher resolution images from Massa's old drive for the old petjeaf page when the show was still being developed. What if he disabled downloads for the images there too and people couldn't figure out how to Inspect Element that shit to get the HQ pictures?

AI to remove the logo? I don't believe so
In fact I think i have a few more of the "old" artworks that seem to be styled differently compared to their modern counterparts, I dont know if we can ever find them again though

No I mean AI to upscale the images. Notice how smudgy a lot of them look (especially the one where Maya's livestreaming the Sims 4). I don't know why people opted to remove the watermark in them, but it's relatively easy to just mask it in photoshop or whatever.

I really don't get what you mean. I don't pick up any suspicions of AI use at all, and these images aren't new, I forgot when I took them from 4chan archives but I think it was as far back as 3 years ago.
Opening this up in GIMP proves that its just a style difference, not a trace of upscaling can be found
I believe there was a time where the watermarks weren't placed on the arts at all, and a time where massa would make the arts without that checkerboard pattern

nevermind im going schizo. something is wrong with the first image which was taken from >>10249 second picrel
but why? why would you downscale an image and make it blurrier?
