I enjoy using photoshop, and the best way to learn how to better use the endless tools that the program has to offer is to..well..use them. So I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in some sort of SWRP photoshop contest?

Post thoughts below. :CHappy:
I'm sure some people will want to use other programs, basicly..it would be a disadvantage..so I personally would be fine with it.

Hmm let's see where this goes.

I was thinking that the participants would all start with the same immage then have a common goal, and see who can complete that goal the best.

Site users could vote on the finished products.

It would have to be timed. (1 week?)

There are different skill levels and sets among us SWRPers.
I find that any contest among us would create animosity and rifts between people.
Sure its supposed to be friendly competition, but the risk would be... well not enough to substantiate.

Anonymous submissions with a voting poll; so that the only one who knows who won is the winner?

It allows for the competition without people getting all Grr-face at each other.

That could be arranged. Submissions could be PMed to me then posted for voting.

The contest would not be skill so much as to see different interpretations of a common goal.

For example: (This is a pretty lame example) The goal could be "Make <this person> appear evil. Everyone would have a different view of evil.

That's actually a really nifty idea, IMO.

Well... I can just say if this takes place, I will not be contending.

You're all doomed, behold my amazing Photoshop skills that weren't used as the banner due to sheer awesomeness.

I'd probably not participate unless I got really bored.

I need to break out Photoshop though. It's been awhile since our last tryst. <3

same, not that it does not sound fun, it's just this is what I do for a living, and have enough examples floating around the site...

but I would not mind helping in setting something up or judging, or whatever.
