This Thursday we continue our freaking experiment with provided source images. Breakdancing (also called B-boying) originated in the 70s in New York among black and Puerto Rican youths. It is typically danced to hip-hop, funk music, and especially breakbeats. There are four key elements in this street dance - power moves, toprock, downrock, and freezes. Though not as popular nowadays as it once was, breakdancing is still performed by die hard fans who remember the glorious breakdance years - 70s and 80s. One such die hard fan is shown in today's stock photo. And in case you are wondering, the photo is NOT photoshopped.
Photoshop this photo of village breakdancing any way you wish. Some examples are - show where the breaker can perform his dance, put him in some unexpected environment, etc. (Image credit: bark)

It's this time of the year again - Easter is on Sunday, April 20. Numerous Easter egg hunts will be organized in the United States and internationally. Bunny and eggs are the traditional symbols of this spring holiday, as they symbolize fertility. Easter was originally a day when pagans celebrated spring on the day of vernal equinox. "Eastre" was a pagan goddess of fertility, thus the holiday name.
Give Easter theme to anything you wish. Some examples are: designing some Easter gadgets, giving Easter theme to movies and paintings, making Easter egg-heads out of politicians, dressing celebrities as Easter bunnies. These are just some ideas. Happy Upcoming Easter! Many thanks to lucianomorelli for the themepost.

David Letterman, the grandfather of the American late night television, announced that he will be retiring from the Late Show in the next several months. CBS picked Stephen Colbert to take over the show. Letterman turned turned 67 on April 12, and said he's thankful to his fans and CBS for many years of hosting the Late Show. After the staff sex scandal in 2009, he was suffering from depression, but managed to go back being himself, the true Letterman we knew and loved many years ago. So, for all those late nights, thanks Dave. It's been great.
Will Letterman be getting any job offers after his departure from the Late Show? Photoshop Letterman's next job or show what he'll be doing in his retirement. Themepost image credit: CBS

Tax Day - April 15 - is almost here. The tax filing deadline used to be March 1 in 1913, until it was changed to March 15 in 1918 and then to April 15 in 1955. Nowadays, Tax Day remains April 15, unless it falls on a weekend or national holiday - then the filing deadline is moved to the next business day.
Let us imagine what would happen if taxes were not taken in money, but instead were taken in fractions of taxed property. In this case IRS would simply cut off and take away part of your house, part of your car, part of your computer, etc. In this contest you are to photoshop any taxed objects with parts cut off and taken away from them. Some examples are: half a house, half a car, two-thirds of a dog, half a painting, etc. Many thanks to GarRobMil for the themepost.
