Contest #200: Something Special

Current Contest #200: Something Special

Take the picture below and modify it any way that you want. Change colors, looks, background, etc...

The changes can be serious or silly. The changes don't have to make the car more desirable, they just have to make it different.

You are showing off your creativity and your chopping skills.

You must use the original picture as your starting point. Try to keep some semblance of the original pic.

You can make up to 2 entries! But if you do, they have to be significantly different from each other. Please send me final copies only. NO revisions after entry. Once you've entered, that's your entry.

If more than 20 entries are received, I might not use "2nd" entries. So please indicate which one you prefer, in case of that scenario.

Chopping is anonymous!:

Do NOT post your images here in this thread. Instead, E-mail them to: sales@sub500.com.
Do not send a link to the picture. Send the picture itself. Please send it in JPG format. Please do not write your name anywhere in your picture.
In your e-mail (but not your picture) please include your user name, even if you think that I know who you are.

You have until Thursday at Midnight to submit your entries, so there is no need to rush right away. Quality takes time. Voting will start on Friday.

Same rule in effect. If you enter, you MUST vote. Contestants that do not vote will be penalized.

Here's the pic to modify:

I'm still in. I will probably give it a shot when I go home from work today to come out with couple and E-mail it to ya. This one looks to be a toughy for me, but I will give it a try.

Re: Current Contest #200: Something Special

My 2 entries have been E-mailed. btw, eurohazard, I don't think Photoshop is REQUIRED, there are a lot of good free programs that are out there on the internet that you can use to chop the photos.

... like MS Paint , i remember when i downloaded Photoshop a few months ago and saw how it looks, i thought it's easier to chop pictures using Paint than learning how to use it.

Re: Contest #200: Something Special

I think this contest is already on the way, and I don't think this contest accepts the entry on a post, strictly by E-mail. I mean if you didn't know.
