Photoshop Tennis!

[thegathering]

I just read about this awsome game from wikipedia (bless it's soul).

Here's an example of what could be achieved:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/8e/Ps_tennis_MechapixelDotCom.jpg/137px-Ps_tennis_MechapixelDotCom.jpg



Here are the rules:
1. I will post up an image.

2. After 5 rounds of one person allowed to make an image alteration from either the original image or another person's posted image.

3. I, along with another person ( pm me if you want to act as a judge, though you cannot play in the game) will determine who made the best, most thoughtful, and most creative photochop.

4. You must either use Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paintshop , GNU The Gimp, Macromedia Fireworks, or Microsoft Paint to make your modifications.

5. Keep all images PG-13 and limit comments to 2 comments per image until the game is over.

Nice job :D I host mine through fileshack, which automatically makes you a thumbnail for forums :)

Hm....yeah, would it be possible to get that added? I use PhotoShop myself, but not everyone uses that. Also, don't forget about PaintShop!

Ok, round 1 has ended and the winner has been selected for this round. Round 2 begins now.

Winners of each round will be posted at the end of the 5th round.

And can I keep going or have I used up my only like chance?

You go off the last image posted. Every round a winner will be chosen. The poster with the most wins wins the game. Everyone who wants to post can post only once per round, but any person can post in all 5 rounds.

Also, at the end of the round, the original image is changed to the last image posted, so that anybody can use either someone else's image for that round or the original image provided at the beginning of the round.

Well, since only one person submitted a ps for the Round 2, I Am Doug wins the Round by Default. If Round 3 only has one entry also, I may have to end the competition.

Round three begins now with this image:

Each round starts in the morning and runs through that day. The pictures are accumulative in their PS but the winners are chosen per day. Person with the most wins wins. =)

[Booger]

ok thanks

[Bill_Hancoc]

is there a larger image?

[Daisy]

if you click on the thumbnails, you can get a bigger picture

Because this thread has died (no more image posts and one image post in the previous round) I, sadly, must end the competition at 3 rounds.

I and the other judge have decided that "I AM DOUG" is the winner of the competition for winning two out of the three rounds with his tasteful and humorful WindWaker edit and his masterful Zip Line edit.

Nice job Doug :) I was very impressed with the work that you did. :)




On another note, I apologize because I could not extend each round to multiple days to allow less active members to participate. I am leaving for Florida in two days and at the start of the game, a two or three day long round was not possible do to time constraints.


I will have a new competition with a new image in September in which I will extend the competition's rounds for several days to give players more time to work their art and give them more time to post their creations per round.


Hope you guys had fun (even if for only a short time) and I hope you guys will play again when a much larger game is played next month :)

Shweet...
Well, when you get back make sure to start it up again. :D
