Mechapixel Contests http://mechapixel.com Mechapixel is a photoshopping and entertainment hole in the net. en-us Sat, 14 Jan 2006 23:44:50 CST Mechapixel Contests http://mechapixel.com http://mechapixel.com/forums/images/mecha/murals/affinity.gif Ended Slag :: Celebrity Photofit http://mechapixel.com/contest.php?slag=338 You know those photofits that the police do to search for people? They take eyes, noses, hairlines, head form and piece them together to make a picture of a criminal. Now, take as many celebrities as you like and piece together a portrait like the one shown, made out of the head of Natalie Portman, the nose and mouth of Scarlett Johansson and the eyes of Angelina Jolie. (Don't take the photofit description too literal.) Have fun! Ended Slag :: New Years Resolutions http://mechapixel.com/contest.php?slag=337 In this contest, the goal is to photoshop a resolution for the new year.

Here are some common resolutions to get you started: Lose weightStop smokingStick to a budgetSave or earn more moneyFind a better jobBecome more organizedExercise moreBe more patient at work/with othersEat healthierBecome a better person Have fun! Ended Slag :: You've Got Mail http://mechapixel.com/contest.php?slag=335 In this theme contest, your task is to create an e-mail announcement to inform someone of some really bad news. For example, the image below stating that the recipient might have an STD (this is an actual e-card that can be sent anonymously -- see this thread for more). Good luck, and have fun! Latest Graffiti :: Exquisite Corpse III: Quilting http://mechapixel.com/graffiti.php?gid=105 Everyone grab a square! Dimensions: Each square is 128x128. There will be 8 per row, and 6 rows down to make 48 total squares. The final image will be 1024x768. How it works: The first person creates the first square and the order will go left to right until square #9, which will begin a new row. Rinse, repeat. Your square should blend well with any adjacent square to the left and/or above yours. The final size of your square should be 128x128, and please keep in mind that all squares will be touching, but they won't overlap or be merged with each other. Here is a nice example: the full quilt of the sample on the left. Guidelines: - Each square must be exactly 128 x 128 - The theme/focus is on humor. - Squares can be photo-realistic or illustrated. - When you want to do a square, post an 'I got next' comment on this page (not in the forum thread). - You are more than welcomed to create more than 1 square, but just not two in a row. Compliments and such are okay to post on this page, but if you need clarification on something, please use the EC3 thread.
