That's right, folks, it's the all new weekly Photoshop Contest, Photoshop Tuesday! 😃

Unlike previous photoshop contests, where the contenstants were given a picture to edit, this new contest will merely specify a category, allowing the contestants to mangle any image they wish!

And now, to dispell a few myths:

  • Myth: You have to use Adobe Photoshop� to enter.
    You most certainly do not! Use whatever application you are most comfortable with, be it Paint, Flash, or anything else.
  • Myth: You must be an excellent image editor to enter
    Again, just not true. But remember: the funnier your idea, the more your can get away with, image quality wise. And reversely, if you are very good at editng images, you can get away with a less humorous image.
  • Myth: You cannot enter more than one image
    Nope. Go ahead, enter as many times as you want, but with each week's voting, you can only win one place (first second or third). If one person comes in more than one place, they will recieve honors for the highest place recieved, and the next runner up will recieve the following standing.

So remember, this is just for fun, the more submissions I get, the better the contest will be. And now, for this week's topic:

Bad Games

That's right, just mock up a Box, Ad, Disk, or Cartrige of any (non-existent) game which would be a horrible idea.

Any submissions can be either Private Messaged to me, or e-mailed (as an attachment) to [email][email protected][/email] .

Have fun, and check back next Tuesday for the results and voting! :thumbsup:

Okay, I guess I didn't specify this, but don't post your entries in this thread. The entries aren't supposed to be seen until the voting.

You can still always post that you entered, but don't actually display the image yet.

Just PM or [[email protected]]e-mail[/EMAIL] them to me.

Thanks.

Submitted. I was toying around with an idea of "Michael Jackson's Pro Child Molester" but I couldn't execute it like I wanted to.

If I were any good with any sort of program of that sort, I'd enter. But I'm not, so I'll have to take a Photoshop class and enter another contest later.

Read the myths above. I'll quote myself for your pleasure...

Myth: You must be an excellent image editor to enter
Again, just not true. But remember: the funnier your idea, the more your can get away with, image quality wise. And reversely, if you are very good at editng images, you can get away with a less humorous image.

So enter already! Any images are welcome, be they made with Paint, Photoshop, Gimp, hell, you could even make an ASCII art picture with Notepad, for all I care. Just submit something! 😃

Perhaps. Something he'll have to disproove by entering a hilarious entry. (Entering an entry?)

BTW, my entry is now complete :P

Eh. I'll read the tutorials on PhotoShop and see if I can scrap something together. Keep in mind that I've never even touched the program before. 😃

I'm so tempted to take a pic of the upcoming Pokemon game and submit it (you know, the one where you get to watch Pokemon watch TV? Yeah, that one.) I'll look around for the worst I can find though.
