In all honesty, I wouldn't. Because screenshotted or not, NFTs are fucking useless.

The joke wouldn't be worth the few kB of disk space imho

I still got my illicit trump trading card nfts saved somewhere. Those are pretty funny

[-] Emerald@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago

I actually have downloaded some nfts as jpeg because its the highest quality I could find of an artwork I liked

[-] almost1337@lemm.ee 25 points 3 months ago

Why screenshot when I can just right click and save?

[-] my_hat_stinks@programming.dev 5 points 3 months ago

Because that would be the same quality. This is the internet, if an image is still recognisable after being shared five times you're doing something wrong.

I want my ifunny logo

Yeah OP seems to imply there's some kind of cyptographic security with NFTs. Nope! It's literally just a URL on the blockchain pointing to a regular image on a regular server.

[-] cadekat@pawb.social 3 points 3 months ago

Let me preface this by saying I don't see the value of 99% of NFTs either, but it is technically possible to make one that stores the image on the blockchain or on IPFS. Most don't, obviously, but it is possible.

[-] Emerald@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

For like thousands of dollars you could store a small sized image on the blockchain itself. Of course that's not practical

Not even because I value or want it, just because it will ruffles the NFT owner's jimmies.

[-] Emerald@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

it will ruffles the NFT owner’s jimmies.

Will it? I'm sure anyone actually creating an NFT will know how the technology works

I went to a museum of modern art and they had an NFT gallery of tv screens playing looping NFT GIFs. I took a Live Photo.

[-] Emerald@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 months ago

I mean... I would hope not. Artists work hard to make NFTs. You should respect that by downloading the image in full resolution and quality rather then screenshotting it.

[-] cygnus@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 months ago

What if I take a screenshot and make an NFT out of it?

[-] theshatterstone54@feddit.uk 3 points 3 months ago

Infinite money glitch (if you can find enough idiots to buy them)

[-] Flyswat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

Ceci n'est pas un NFT

[-] ClemaX@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago

You wouldn't download a car‽

[-] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 months ago

Get me a 3d printer big enough....

oh god. im old.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

That's not the source. . However it was still the 2000s.

[-] clark@midwest.social 5 points 3 months ago

What's the name of this video again? I remember having to watch it before every movie on a scrappy little DVD-player laptop.

[-] Bougie_Birdie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 3 months ago

This is a mutation of an anti-piracy campaign. The text usually reads "You wouldn't steal a car" an then asks why you would download a movie.

I would totally download a car though.
