The image used in the background of the Gravity Falls logo HAS BEEN FOUND!!

It's located in France!!

I made a thread on Twitter explaining the full story and how I even asked Ian Worrel and Alex Hirsch about it, but lemme run down quickly how it was found and where it is!

After 3 years of searching with some friends on and off, we had no real luck. I've been working on a video about it for a while but decided to try one more time. My friend @trickengf suggested looking at international logos as they may have more of the image available and sure enough...we found logos like the Japanese and Russian GF logo had more visible detail of the image.

From that, Tricken made a remake of the image and used it to find it. He ended up finding the source at about 3AM for me, lol!

My friend Fried Oreos then confirmed the image was old enough to fit the criteria of pre GF pilot, by determining the image was on the Textures website it was sourced from since 2008!

Then, my friend Alex M managed to buy the HD image and we were able to analyze its metadata for more info!

Turns out, the image, called "LandscapeMountains0009," was taken by a Nikon D70 camera on April 18, 2007!

THE GRAVITY FALLS LOGO IMAGE IS ALMOST 18 YEARS OLD!!

From there, we began looking for the location. The meta data had no location, but other images taken around the same time showed signs of maybe the location being in Europe.

After over a day of searching, Tricken, Alex M and Oreos FOUND IT!!

The location of the image is a mountain range near the town of Sers, France...near the border with Spain.

Exact coordinates of the closest viewable angle of the image is 42°54'23.2"N 0°06'05.6"E

This is a major discovery and one I cannot believe we did. While this search was started by me in 2021 with some friends, it was TrickenGF, Alex M and Fried Oreos who deserve all the credit for this discovery! They were the geniuses who tracked all of this down and were able to connect the dots to get to this point.

You guys are amazing and I am beyond grateful for all of this.

Finding this image means that fans can now recreate the Gravity Falls logo as they want with anything they want. For example, Tricken made this for me using the image :D

Or, you can do this, lol

We now have it!

For 12 years as we looked at the Gravity Falls logo...we were in reality looking at a mountain in France...NOT Oregon!

So, I guess this is a major W for France but sorry, Pacific Northwest, Gravity Falls is actually French, lol!

I still can't believe we found this. I'm so happy :P

i will never understand how people have the heart to hate Jason even after they found out that his Ambrosia tastes like fucking sawdust. Ambrosia being tasty is like one single happy thing a demigod can have despite their tragic lives, because it reminds them of the home they once had, but lost. And Jason doesn't even have that, he doesn't even have a home to lose in the first place.

#He didn't even get the bare minimum of anything #what the fuck I'm bawling #json grace haters who make false claims about his character trying to villianize him go fuck yourselves I'm serious #genuinely y'all make so mad so DNI on my lage #hating a character is fine but outright making false claims about his actions to manipulate others into jumping on the hate train aswell??#how could you despise him with this knowledge. “because he tried replacing perc-” shut the fuck up if that's the reason #It was technically jason who was so quickly replaced in camp Jupiter after his sheer 11 years of hardwork #but oh no it's completely fine that no one in cj sent a search party after him and only jason gets the blame for landing in chb #I will never forget the part of the fandom who tried to convince me that Jason was a bad character who deserved to die.#pjo #pjo fandom #percy jackson #pjo hoo #pjo series #jason grace #pjo hoo toa #annabeth chase #piper mclean #leo valdez

I will die on the hill that this deserves a place amongst rankings of the saddest quotes in Crooked Kingdom:

“You don’t understand. It was me, I caused this”

- Wylan, chapter 14, when Jesper says he wants to feed Van Eck to the vultures for what he did to Marya.

I need a tag that says “Fake dating but one of them thinks it’s real and the one who knows it’s fake actually falls for them and there’s angst but they end up together in the end”

I swear to god 99% of people watching WL forgot who won SL. Put some respect on his name

#I didn't think I'd have to disclaim this but this post/tags are about the fandom. the viewers. not the CCs #wild life #trafficblr #goodtimeswithscar #loser trioo loser triooo they always die trioooo they will never win trioooo. You can have your fun!! It's fine!! I find it funny too but #it's only funny for so long when everyone is betting on them all dying first and repeating notions that just aren't really true..?#People's opinions of Lizzie being shaped by her dying first in SL? And of Scar being shaped by every season he didn't make top 5 in?#Or god forbid the “Scar only won because person X did all the work!!” or “Scar only got so far because he was allied with Grian!” takes #it's not that serious... it shouldn't be that serious... But I can't help getting peeved sorry #Jimmy okay. Lizzie has SO many kills under her belt and made it decently far. and Scar has gotten 1st and 2nd before. Did everyone forget.?#Those are two very capable people and Jimmy gets tunnel visioned and clumsy but I believe in him too #They've all been losers before and Jimmy is my loser cringeboy son but good lord some of you have extremely selective memory #blabber

AA fandom has a strange tendency to pretend like Ema's canon crush on Miles doesn't exist (at least from what I've seen) but none of you will ever be able to convince me that Ema doesn't have dozens of Miles Edgeworth x Reader fics on her AO3. You only hate me because you know I'm right

#mel's musings #ema skye #miles edgeworth #ace attorney #she literally TRACKS HIS FOOTPRINTS to find him in aai1? unhinged fangirl ema skye is real and that is the hill i will die on #also. there's a lot of discussion around bisexual erasure when it comes to phoenix but never ema? which has always been strange to me #to be clear: if you hc her as lesbian (or w/e else) you do you. i'm not here to bully anyone for playing with dolls (blorbos) incorrectly #i just think “bisexual ema skye who is cursed with getting a crush on The Gayest Man To Ever Gay™” is way funnier #even more so if it's a pattern. and her lamenting an unreciprocated crush on a man is how she figures out she likes women too #there is a RIDICULOUS amount of underdeveloped comedic potential there and i think we as a fandom are missing out

dsmp is still SO insane to me. still not completely convinced it wasn't a social experiment. it is something that can never be replicated again due to the really specific circumstances that attributed to it's creation and popularity

#the combination of everyone being inside due to the pandemic #the community giving everyone a space to connect #in a time where loneliness and mental health was reaching an all time high especially among youth #like idk. even after everything and a handful of ccs being revealed to be horrible shitbags #the dsmp will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart.#a story told in a medium no one has really explored before #the unique fantasy setting......the three life system allowing for more high stakes moments since there a character #could die multiple times to raise stakes #the emphasis placed on familial and platonic dynamics and how THEY can be just as complex and entertaining to watch/read abt like /r ships #the fandom revolutionizing gen fics and making a familial relationship reach the TOP OF AO3 STATS ONE YEAR???? insanity.#also just the ppl.#the amount of talented musicians and artists and writers and editors and all the ppl who lovingly transcripted and compiled lore streams #LIKE UGH.#im so emo about it #unfiltered queer representation bcuz #the story wasnt washed down by a corporation as it was given directly from the storytellers to the audience #the multiple povs allowing ppl to experience the same story in completely different ways #excellent depictions of the effects of mental illness/ptsd and 'imperfect' abuse survivors #ctommy my beloved #LIKE SIGH. WE ARE NEVER GETTING THAT AGAIN IN A FANDOM SPACE I FEAR #ok lol. ignore my rantings #dsmp #dream smp #starry text

what kind of frivolity would you engage in, mecha?

<

---

#mecha sonic #scrapnik mecha sonic #scrapnik island #sonic fanart #sonic fandom #arting #msab #good MORNING. i have given myself many emotions about mecha's big stupid cape. like a fool. such is the way i suppose #god ive been dying to get to this one. do you get it. do you understand #victories; if not on your own terms. achievements; if not the ones you thought you wanted. childhood dreams that never die.#which on that note yeah this is also my favorite one for showing eggman-era mecha as like #''yeah hes hes the most arrogant and murderous jackass on the planet but hes also like 17.''#& therefore kind of a lame little nerd by default. he thinks capes are sooooooo coool #we were all stupid kids once but sometimes u get older and u still wanna paint your house purple. and sometimes u still want a cool cape #it occurs to me that actual 17-year-olds may see this and to that i say: sorry. you guys are fine do ya thang.#its just that im 29 and have grey hair and shit so i have a certain Perspective on being 17 is all. & scrapnik mecha is like mid-30's to me #i knoooowwww he loves his big stupid cape so much. look at the refsheets with his dumbass spines poking holes through the the hood #tell me he has not made a COMMITMENT to wearing that hood despite being built in a way that makes that incredibly inconvenient #u look at nathalie fourdraine's christmas scrapniks post and tell me he isnt having so much fun #being all decorated and swishing around in that Even Bigger And Stupider Cape & shawl w/ his friends #hes so funny for that he's generally such a serious kinda character but on god he does also love some showmanship and flashiness.#i want to make it clear btw i also think capes are awesome i literally cosplay a guy with Two [2] capes.#& mecha is basically the coolest ever. but also hes still funny for that

my opinion on taylor swift is contentious at best it is def conflicting but whenever i see people talking about her tour in brazil and the girl who DIED at her concert and the way she reacted to it i think i actually hate her and her fans lol

#i love so many of her songs so much #i know she is not a good person and i know i could never be a fan of hers #most of the time i don’t think she is particularly worse than any other huge celebritg #i like observing her fandom because it’s so huge and a lot of what i see is fascinating #then i remember brazil or see someone saying ana chose to go to the show and therefore knew she could DIE and im like #actually you should kys and so should she. bye lol
