Title: Photoshop Phriday! (September 30 - October 7) WE HAVE A WINNER!
Post by: Pet Terry on Fri 30/09/2005 19:12:16
What is a Photoshop Phriday?

At this point everyone should know already, but here goes, once again.

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.

And for other examples, see here:

-------------------------------------

This week: Touch in paranormal!

UFOs, aliens, ghosts, living skeletons, adventure gamers... whatever comes to your mind when you see the word 'paranormal'. Internet is full of hoaxes like this, so let's make some more! So, your job is simply to photoshop an image so that it include paranormal activity.

Examples:
- Aliens visiting Mittens!
- Your favourite game including something that wasn't there before!
- !

Actually, we got to witness paranormal activity at Mittens:

Helm shows off his skills and levitates a blue cup! This is the original photo, Grundislav just photoshopped that cup out before uploading his photo gallery.

PS. Cheers, Guybrush Peepwood!

I don't know if this counts as an entry, because I didn't do it for this competition, though I did it on Friday. But I guess it kinda fits the theme...

Are we allowed more than one try? I'm not as happy with this, but have it anyway:

The oh-so-scary shadow is taken from a "real" ghost photo. I might give this another go, since it didn't really give a very paranormal mood. But still, good practise.

EDIT: I made another one. Just tell me if I'm breaking any rules.

Aliens not necessarily my idea of paranormal, but it was in the examples.

Another one. :-\

I am making these to look like "real" ghost pictures, by the way. That's why it's sometimes hard to spot the paranormal being, but I think it's turning out fine to be hoaxes.

Yay for entries!

I don't have time to comment on every entry, but there were some very neat entries. But...

A WINNER IS YOU! (Ashen)

Congrats, your Mittens 1947 photoshop made me giggle, but not because I'm in that picture, honest.

Thanks everyone who made an entry, very nice of you. Ashen, go host a new compo.

Yay me!

I didn't think to check this yesterday, 'cause I didn't think I'd win - Thank you Petteri! (And it didn't even occur to me that you were in the picture until you mentioned it.)
I'll start the next one later today soon, after I've thought of a topic.

Thank you, Mr P..
