CD photo shop #1

[lukevanoort]

Okay, I was just playing Image Wars when it occurred to me that we should have a CD Photoshop contest. So here goes. On someday (to be decided if this is popular) I'll post an image. Then there is a period of one-two weeks (I haven't decided yet) where you can make your modifications to the image. There are a couple of rules on what the pics can contain.
1)Nothing explicit
2)Nothing overly violent
3)Must somehow pertain to FIRST or ChiefDelphi in a manner that can be figured out with relative ease
4)Even if it hasn't been listed specifically, remember if you think it might possibly be violating the rules or inappropriate, ask prior to posting it. (If you choose that entry method.
5)The image must be between 450 x 450 and 1024 x 1024
6)The entry must contain a major element from the posted image
7)There are two options for entering. Either posting it to this thread, or e-mailing it to me at lukevanoort.587@gmail.com. (The e-mail method is preferred, I'll accept .jpg, .gif, .png, no .psd)
8)You can use any program (even MSPAINT), entries will not necessarily be judged on quality of edits, most of the judging will be on humor/inspirational value/whatever the image represents most.

The image is this found here.
This time entries are due by the Saturday after next.

I would like to suggest that if someone's photo is going to be used, they be contacted first to see if it's OK with them. It's a GP, courtesy thing.

Good idea. If anyone thinks their photo will be used often they can state their permission or you can ask them specifically.

A quick change. Dave doesn't like that picture for some reason and requested this one instead.

I agree I like this one too!
here it is on cd-media

One more week people.

Okay guys, here's my quick entry:

Dave and Tytus playing Beach Donut Toss



I think they may have had a bit too much sun...

On a related note, could the next picture not include Dave? He may begin to think that I'm being mentored by Heidi

Basically... here's the logic behind the madness...
Tytus is/was on 179 Swamp thing, which is very...green.
Now take the Eiffel 65 Song and mix them together with some info that I got from someone at regionals (they said people used to chant that out)and ... WHAM Photoshop!

Don't worry, it won't. Using Dave Lavery for the first one was a strategy to get more people to enter since everyone loves photoshops of Dave...
I've also finally made up my mind about future contest timing. This contest's entries are still due on the Saturday coming up, but I decided to make the time a little more exact, they are due at noon Eastern. After this contest, future ones will move to a Wednesday-Wednesday one week schedule so that people get a full weekend for squeezing in the time to produce the photoshop as well as several weekdays to let ideas mull around in their heads.

EDIT: This contest's entries are NOT due Saturday, they are due this Wednesday by noon eastern as my later post indicates.

[Michelle Celio]

Could we consider not having such a long period of time for the contest? I think most people forgot about it that's why it took so long to get some entires, but all you really need is a week. And besides...once you enter..it looses fun. haha.

Still a great idea.

Okay, to get this to its soon to be regular schedule, I'm ending the time for entries at noon Eastern on Wednesday this week. Sorry, if you planned on doing an entry Saturday morning or during the week, but I decided that it'd be better to get it on schedule now, and, as Michelle pointed out, two weeks is rather long.
