For this week's Photoshop Contest, I want you guys to go crazy with Google's Chrome comic. The 4chan folks have already done some stuff with it, now its your turn. Feel free to go beyond just swapping the words out. Insert photos, put panels together that don't belong together, make it as insane as humanly possible. There are tons of pages of source material, and I'm positive that you'll come up with some hilarious and ...

For this week's Photoshop Contest, I asked you to create some really awkward gadget-related cross promotions. Another home run, if I do say so myself. There were an inordinate number of entries that involved condoms or feminine hygenine products, but beyond those we have some truly inspired entries. And some truly twisted entries. In fact, all three of the top winners are tasteless to the point of maybe crossing the line, but I guess you ...

Reading is fundamental. Sound familiar? There is a great children’s literacy organization by that name. The statement is a simple yet powerful truth: reading is a fundamental way to learn and grow as a person. It helps to increase understanding of the past and present; it expands your mind and stimulates your brain; it is entertaining; and, it is the gateway to a more creative world that is full of possibilities and other wonderful things. ...

If you guessed Grandfather clock as the mystery shot in my last post for the Getting in Close: Guess What It Is contest, you were right. Here’s a more clear view of it. Still close up, but at least you can tell what it is in this photo. My husband’s dad made this clock with his own hands. It really is stunning. The craftsmanship that goes into making something like this never ceases to amaze ...

Last week’s “Design Kenny’s Tattoo” Photoshop contest turned out great. Of course, the original intent — to help Kenny find a tattoo that he’d really like to have — went almost entirely ignored, but what do you expect when you ask for peoples’ opinions on a overweight cycling comedy blog? So, here are some of my favorites. Tyler: Helmet Tattoo The award for best Photoshopping using MSPaint goes to Tyler, as does the award for ...
