Title: Effects Editing Contest No. 1!
Post by: Ryu on February 12, 2002, 09:40:34 PM
Well, we haven\'t really had any types of contests on Central that actually required some thought and creativity, so I figured this would be time for us all to have one.

The Contest:

Take the picture below, and edit it in anyway you seefit.  That\'s all there is to it.  Post it on your webspace and use the (https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F+tags+to+successfully+post+it+here.++If+you+do+not+have+any+webspace%2C+send+your+picture+to+%5Bemail%5Dshinryu187%40hotmail.com%5B%2Femail%5D+and+I%5C%27ll+gladly+host+it+for+you.++%0D%3Cbr+%2F%3E%0D%3Cbr+%2F%3E%5Bimg%5Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fmrclean.gethits.net%2Fobl.jpg&hash=2fb55040dd0769bb0b4a59c7516bc6fde12f6ecf)

The Rules
The topic will be closed February 28th, and the winners will be posted on March 3rd.  If this contest really takes off, I will send the winner one free game of their choosing via ebgames.com.  If it\'s not on their site, you won\'t be getting it so no asking for Panzer Dragoon or some SNK game that costs a fortune on ebay.  Because I\'m hosting this contest out of my own pocket, I am expecting great entries so if I get nothing but absolute crap, I\'m not going to send anything out.

I am the contest judge and I have no friends on this board so there will be no bias in my decision.  The most original and creative piece by my point of view will be the winner.  Anyways, to get the creative juices flowing, here\'s a take on the picture I did in about 30 seconds using Photoshop.

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fmrclean.gethits.net%2Fobk.jpg&hash=b1101d6f4014623b4abe93bec79bc668b681b4cc)

Good luck to all and I\'ll see you March 3rd for the contest winners!

Well Ryu I sent you my entry, just an Apple joke I whipped up on my laptop in class, I didn\'t have time to refine the pic or add more shadows and gradients, so it\'s just a very basic pic :)

If I have time I\'ll improve upon it or make another better one.

Do keep in mind that I had to use an IBM style TrackPoint (or the nipple as I like to call it) so not all the layers are matching like they should be, it\'s not too accurate :(

Well, as stated about a week in advance of the contest ending, if the contest failed to recieve 30 entries, then no game would be rewarded.  There isn\'t even 25 entries total so a game isn\'t going to be awarded.  However, as suggested already, I will announce the winners of the contest.  This was supposed to happen yesterday, but thanks to a large workload and a cranky girlfriend, this did not happen.  Now, without further ado, here are the winners of the 1st digital editing conetest.

3rd Place:

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.arches.uga.edu%2F%7Ejasong%2Ffirstentry.jpg&hash=4c592578ec79df4d7c9cc4ef9b491c99c44fbb56)

This beautiful picture came from Troglodyte and showcases the evil devil-ish properties of OBL.  Although it\'s primarily just a smooth mess, the devil points came out very smooth and the teeth very prominent.  The eyes are also very well done.  Good job Trog.

2nd Place:

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fmrclean.gethits.net%2Fra2.jpg&hash=38faf2d0415adcbc082436784e481e0eb1764109)

Although Racer started a new topic on this board rather than reading and reviving this thread which tempted me to drop him from the contest altogether, I still could not disqualify the comical look of OBL in this thread.  His lips are fantasticaly huge and the tropical hat just takes the cake.  It\'s a great work of art and meshes quite well with his face.  Good work, Racer.

1st Place:

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.in-light.org%2Fmas%2Fmeet_all_stars%2Fjustin%2Fimages%2Fbin.gif&hash=edf369c6d6b76942b5eb73467240dc7670946925)

Although the contest did not require a gif, Juslight here created one anyways and a great looking one at that.  The eyes moving back in forth are Homer\'s definition of how you can tell someone is evil and the instant osama haircut is quite hilarious as well.  This truly is an example of great digital art.  Congratulations Juslight, you are the winner.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to make an entry and thank you to those who supported the contest.  Hopefully, the next contest will get even more entries and I will give out a game.  It would be nice to get a few replies concerning nother contest and a few possible ideas as well.

Sorry Ryu, I just thought this thread was dead. I think for the next contest, we have another pic, not of OBL, but something completely different, and have to put it into context or something.
