Title: Photoshop Contest (20 July - 3 August)
Post by: Darth Mandarb on Thu 21/07/2005 00:41:29
What is a Photoshop Phriday?

Photoshopping isn't drawing a completely new image -- It's editing images to create a new image, such as editing one image or combining several images. The contest usually lasts for a fortnight. Also, you don't have to specifically use Photoshop -- Paint Shop Pro, MSPaint, or any other programs can be used. Please make sure your image doesn't exceed the width of the screen.

The Photoshop Contest

This week's theme?

Danger Was Lurking at Brittens 2005

Take one (of the many) provided photos from the Brittens thread (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=21653.0) and create some form of danger that was just narrowly avoided.

Here is a [very quickly done] example:

Dark Stalky didn't realize there was a landshark near where he fell ...

I'm in a terrible rush and I'm leaving town on business tomorrow and won't be back until monday!Ã,  So make some good entries while I'm gone!

Good luck!

It was a close shave, but Layabout saved the day.

Moments after leaving the campsite to have a trip to Staines, lightining storm hit the campsite, exactly to the spot where Brittens was held.

Meanwhile at the local pub, DaveGilbert is at stalemate with the Jenga tower, and working on getting some artificial courage-

The Britteneers narrowly avoid this Danger, which would lead to akward moments, and to discussions about abandonment...

It looked like a stool, but it wasn't a stool:

Don't eat that, CJ, it looks poisonous!

AGSers weren't the only species who attended Brittens. Someone else was also at the campsite....:

...but he thought Dave wouldn't make a good trophy, so he chose someone else instead:

^ ok ... I KNOW it's a shankara stone. But it looks - eh - different. ;D

Ok, not really a lot of danger involved, but whatever:

Lots of good entries this time around!  Good job people.

It was a toss-up between m0ds' entry and Ghormak's.

Ghormak's photoshopping was better, but m0ds' more closely fit the idea I had in mind when I came up with the idea.

So m0ds, thanks for the reminder that today is the 3rd and CONGRATULATIONS!!

m0ds is the winner!!

Is he away at Mittens? Is that now, I can't remember...

Well, if he is gone, then we can do the ever-popular: "Why aren't you at Mittens" photoshop.

What is stopping you from being at Mittens?

YEY! I won!! Thanks :D I never thought I'd win this! I had a really great idea for this competition, but that was last year - so I'm going to try my hardest to remember my cool idea...I'll start the new one tomorrow (Friday) - hopefully no-one will have a problem with that, as it was originally "photoshop phriday"...
