Photo Manipulation contest!, deadline is TOMORROW Options

[ChasingLife87]

Since there's a vector contest going on, and the last photo contest was unresolved, I do believe. Yell at me if this is not the case

Rules

The only stock images that may be used are the ones that follow.

You may blend, manipulate, colorize, filter, and brush to your hearts content, as long as these are the only stock images you use.

There must be some sort of text on it, and the theme is any kind of emotion... whether it be love, lonelyness, joy, anger or whatever.

PM me with the link to your finished product by June 30. Voting will begin then, unless I have less than seven entries.

Edit: I don't care if you enter five minutes before the deadline, there's no time limit on entering...

And please, only one entry per person. I'm sorry for not specifying that before!

Anyone can do a photo manipulation, don't hesitate to enter!!

The Images








Yeah, it's image heavy, but I wanted to give you guys a nice selection. So, have fun, and remember, June 30 I want to see all of the entries!

Note: Once I recieve an entry, I will save to my own computer and host them myself when it comes time to vote, so don't worry about accidentally deleting it off your server or a link that breaks (in honor of poor Heather! )

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the list of people who said that they are in, and bolded names have submitted work to me. If you're name is on the list and you can't follow through, don't sweat it... we all have real lives and I completely understand!!

neeeever mind just bumping, then

[avalon*]

I'll enter, although I'm not very good at this kind of stuff. So we can use any amount of those images we want?

[technicolour]

Yea i'll enter but i have a question.

Say we wanted a butterfly on the pic..but there isn't a butterfly up there..can we still use it?

stupid question but i was justa wondering.

[Annie5332]

I'll enter. But for the colorization part, are we suppost to colorize the whole picture or just some parts?

[ChasingLife87]

grace: sure thing! you can use one of them or all of them, it's up to you!

sprinke-the-stars: I just answered your PM

Annie5332: you don't have to colorize it at all. That's just one of the things that falls under photo manipulation. You could blend instead, or do a few filters and brushes. That's up to you.

Thanks, guys! *huge hug*

[monkigurl77]

I'll try. Seems easier then the vector contest.

[talcumpowder]

YESSSSS~! A contest for something I'm good at~! W00T~! Hm, I'll still lose though. -dies- x.X
(This counts as I'm in. In my world anyways.)

[ChasingLife87]

I'll try. Seems easier then the vector contest.

Amen and amen, hun!!

And nyah-nek is in! Yay! LOL

[soulbond]

im in too

[imafreakinazn]

i will most likely enter, but i cannot guarantee i'll stay in =P


...and what happened to the other photomanip contest?

[ChasingLife87]

...and what happened to the other photomanip contest?

That is a darn good question, lol. I didn't want to keep bugging Emmaliev, I think I was getting annoying. "Is it done yet? Huh? Huh?"

[Heathasm]

im not very good at photomanips but i want to try once i get home!

[ecargnmyst]

can u define photo manipulation? is it just adding stuff to the picture and changing colors...?

[EriaNight]

i will most likely enter, but i cannot guarantee i'll stay in =P
...and what happened to the other photomanip contest?

Same here. I want to try it, but a lot of stuff is going on in my life right now and if my grandmother ends up actually going into the hospital in the next few weeks I might have to stop the project.

But great picture choices!!

.::Molz

[xMiZziexKiMx]

oooh this is kool i wanna try... ^^

[Heathasm]

sprinke-the-stars: I just answered your PM

could you tell us the answer too cause i was wondering the same thing

[ChasingLife87]

could you tell us the answer too  cause i was wondering the same thing

Alrighty... You may use other small images as accents... because I suppose it's only fair to those not using brushes. As long as the main image(s) is out of the ones I supplied, go for it!

can u define photo manipulation? is it just adding stuff to the picture and changing colors...?

Basically, photo manipulation is a broad term for a whole lot. It involves a photo which you digitally (using an imaging program) manipulate. You may blend two together, you may colorize it, you may add brushes, you may use filters and blend layers... pretty much anything like that falls under photo manipulation. There are no rules (well, besides the contest rules), which is why it is so fun for the creative

Note: In the original post you will find a list of those who have said they are "in", and those who have submitted will be bolded. If you can't do it even though you said you are in, no sweat. We all have real lives!

[Paradox of Life]

Some of the images have already been partially manipulated by the changing of color, etc. I'll enter anyway; photomanipulation is one of my favorite hobbies.

[technicolour]

Nevermind.

Sent.

One more stupid question.

Can we submit multiple? I have no life, and well, this gives me something to do.

[f'nximple -_-]

Is it too late to join? if not then I'll be in this myself

[misskentucky]

I'll join, but I might not do them, but I'm pretty sure that I will.

[kana-p]

I'm in! I will pwn you all. :P

edit: It make take me longer now since Heathasm had to get on my computer and mess up my photoshop brushes. Have to reset them now~.1>!!!taco@#@! Thank cuz....

[imafreakinazn]

so i guess you can say i'm withdrawing my semi entry
=]
sorry everyone.
i just....don't feel like it.
=P

[kris_fox17]

i don't think i've ever done a photo manip. unless you count blending as one, but i'll give it a go.....

so we can't can't use any other images but the ones that were provided? and please in force enforce the rules....... former challenges never did!!!!!

[Rachel]

I am in/done. I will PM you mine soon.

[dancerellie714]

i'm in....but i'm really new at this kind of thing so dont expect anything spectacular..lol

[ChasingLife87]

Sorry, I've been out and busy these last couple of days (graduation, whee!) and so I may have left a few questions unanswered

do we post the link to our entry in this topic when it's finished or do we PM you with it?

Um, PMing me is preferable because then I'm sure I'll see it, but either way is fine.

No problemo, I completely understand!

Yeah, blending is definitely one of the choices! And I'll enforce the rules, lol. Yell at me if you think I'm not.

Remember, the deadline is the 30th and no late entries will be taken... so if you're done, please PM me with your entry! Voting will start as soon as possible after the deadline.

[avalon*]

^ You should specify at what time on the 30th and what time zone.

[ChasingLife87]

^ You should specify at what time on the 30th and what time zone.

Okay, that makes sense. Deadline will be at midnight, June 30th, 2005, Central time (US). So, if that's a weird time where you live, just submit before. Thanks, Grace!

[Heathasm]

I'm in! I will pwn you all. :P

whateva

[JustAnotherTeena...]

Bleh, I'm in I suppose. I've never really done this type of thing before..mine'll probably be the worst entry you get

can we also use dif images as backgrounds? b/c some of the bgs in the pictures are kinda plain so i added/blended in a different background....thats ok...right?

[CrazayChristian]

Sure I'm in, but no promises on an entry. *starts*

[ChasingLife87]

Hmm... almost like maybe you cut the person out of the background, that type of thing? I suppose so, as long as the main focus and main content of the manip is taken from the stock images.

Phew, hosting a contest takes a lot of trying to be fair!!

[CrazayChristian]

Good news, I have an entry ^_^.

Bad news, I think I want it just to be a back up entry, because I think I could do better.



But I think I'm definately in as long as I don't forget to send it in, Improvement is in order ^_^.

[xlost_lovex]

still accepting entries?
if yes,, i m in =).
i think i can send you my entry this week....
=)

[dancingkait]

hi :) if you're still accepting entries i'll try my best to get you one by the end of the week thanks!

[Darkfly]

i r in. if possible and i'm allowed etc etc, if not... i hate you.

[Rachel]

Actually, nevermind. I don't like how it turned out.

[*StanleyThePanda*]

I might be in.......if I like what I am doing with the picture
hahaha

[ChasingLife87]

i r in. if possible and i'm allowed etc etc, if not... i hate you.

Yup, still accepting entries up until the deadline... glad I'm not making enemies!

[Darkfly]

Cheers.

Seems a bit silly that this topic isn't stickied like the others?

Plus, it kinda sucks the stocks are all female

Nevermind though.

[ChasingLife87]

Yeah, I know, but I don't have the power to pin this and I'm not going to bug anyone

And I was really really looking for some male stocks, but there just aren't as many and none of them seem to be condusive to "emotion"...

[Mulder]

unless its too late to enter, id like to. i kinda already have one done so.... hey why not? i dont have a shot but i'd still like to enter...

[ChasingLife87]

Enter, even if you don't think you have a chance. That's my rule of thumb. I've been in contests where everyone but one other person though "I'm no good, I don't have a chance", but then that other person's really... wasn't too good, and I could have won. So I say go for it.

Off topic, but why are the other two contests pinned and not mine? I mean, I didn't mind so much when it was just one of the two...

[Mulder]

im in then

[*StanleyThePanda*]

I finished mine! yay! hahaha I cant wait to see everyones

[ChasingLife87]

*bump*

Two days! If your name isn't bolded that means you probably haven't submitted, so if you're still in, finish up!!!

[Paradox of Life]

Today is the deadline (where I live) and this board needs to be bumped up again. It's a contest for goodness' sake.

[kris_fox17]

hey why isn't my name bolded?!?!?!

[kana-p]

Sorry guys, I couldn't make the deadline. I've been getting too many graphic demands and it has kept me busy. ~__~

[technicolour]

Today's the 30th in the United States. She'll accept last minute entry's FYI.

[ecargnmyst]

i submitted mine a few days ago..but my names not up there..

[*StanleyThePanda*]

its almost July...isnt the poll suppose to be up?

[xMiZziexKiMx]

yeah....... itz july 1st.....

[CrazayChristian]

Woot, the time has come.

[technicolour]

The time has come and no voting yet. Eeeek. Dont tell me she went on vacation. That really wouldn't be good.

[ChasingLife87]

Don't you worry! I'm not on vacation. I have almost twenty entries so I need to go through and double check each with the rules, and then rig up some sort of quick display page because there's too many choices for a cB poll. Voting should start ASAP Saturday, and I'm truly sorry for the delay.

In the meantime, this can probably be closed and I'll get the voting up Saturday, July 2nd. Thank you guys so much for your patience, there are a LOT of really, really nice entries.

[*StanleyThePanda*]
