Adobe Photoshop

**Criper2000** · 03-29-2004, 01:13 AM

I was wondering now that we have this great new photoshop forum if any of you would want to have a photoshop contest every so often. It would go like this: Someone would post a picture of a car and then everyone would have a certain amount of days to post there chop of it. There would a judge or two.

And for those who dont know what a chop is look at these examples:

It could be fun!

Would you limit it to cars? Or is that just an example? Actually, a photo could be submitted of just about anything (note the just part) and the participants could "go to it".

Seems like it could be a good way to show off your skills, but also help others learn more about PS.

I could possibly throw in some prizes for this as I own a website that sells software. If this gets rolling let me know. I will see what I can swing. I would love to see this, but I don't want to see just cars. Any picture will work.

DSLReports.com has something like this that they do often. no prizes or contests, just for fun.

I was just using the car as an example because ive seen that done the most, we could do this for fun or even points for the store when it reopens as long as its ok with the admin.

Does it have to be done in Photoshop? Some of us are hard-core PSP users and we'd love the chance to take on Adobe head-on.....

Actually, I agree with Krynt...I think it's a good idea to have some sort of monthly image manipulation fun...but I think it should either go into Design - All the Rest, or Graphics Requests/Contests.

no it doesnt have to be in photoshop, i just put it here beacuse that is what most people use. but you can use whatever you want

I think it should be a layout contest but you have to give them an image that they have to intergrate in the design. It would be good practice considering I have just started web design. You can look at my first attempt at http://www.p-lance.com/test I trust knowone will want to steal it considering its not that good

Rather than just doing a graphic contest, also do a layout contest. I think that anyone can use this that posts here. Since a lot of the people here are still working on their skills a layout contest would be a very good thing.
