Goth Condi Rice pictures - Being a Goth suits her. / now thats she is white the Bush Administration canned her.. / After she was canned by the bush administration, she applied for and landed without a problem that clownjob at the local circus. / Great job, maybe some goths just color their faces white but it would prolly be nice to have the neck covered in white makeup as well.. / Her name is "Zeena Z. Crocodile" (anagram of "Condoleezza Rice").
Gothic Miley Cyrus pictures - / miley cyrus is great.,, but take out the little picture , put it in sources.. good luck. / Please edit this entry and remove the thumbnail image from it (thumbnails are not allowed in entries by the site rules) / Nice job here. To add your source pics, you need to upload them to a host page. I've found using your "My Media Folder" here at FN works great. Then take the url to it, and insert it into the formula to add a news link found in the rules to each weekly news contest. It took me a few contest entries before I figured this out myself, and then my solution was confirmed by NewsMaster on administration. I'm rather new here myself, but I've been having fun with it, even if my award shelf is still empty. (I keep polishing it to keep it ready for all my trophies soon to follow, ). Good luck & have some Freaking fun with it. / nice composition...though the blood is too light ...compare the color of the lipstick and the blood it is the same...to make it more realistic you should make the blood darker
American Gothic Odd Couple pictures - We give the marriage six months...maybe.. / Hahhaahaha, what's she do, talk his right ear off. / You would have done better in the contest if you had done this in color. Why black & white. / I acree, in color would be nice. Also some more accurate cropping is needed on the top of the elephant head
Gothic Mary J pictures - This is my first entry please let me know what you think,nicely. I don't handle rejection well. / Welcome to Freaking News Take a deep breath, 'coz here we go. When you are masking an area of an image, you need to be aware of what colours you are selecting before you remove them from your work. I am guessing that there was a colour or colours within the background of the original source image which was also present in the dress. The removal of this has left a very rough and pixelated finish to your work. The same is noticeable around the perimeter of the figure. Try to adjust the settings on the selection tools which you are using so that you are only removing what you want to remove and are not damaging the remainder of your work. Although masking can take a considerable amount of time on some images; done correctly, it will prevent you from having to spend additional time in redrawing segments of your work as you have attempted to do with the hair. Return to your original source image and play around with just removing smaller segments of colour and see how you get on. / Thanks I will try I don't really know how to use the tool all that well. Let's hope I get better. / Well that is good that you are going to at least try as that is how you will become one of the great CHOPpers on here . If you are using the Magic Wand tool in selecting part of the background image to be removed, then you will see a tolerance setting that you can adjust. The higher the number, the larger the selection will be made when you click the layer. So you will want to have this set quite low at first. You will also want to check that the anti-aliased is used as this will leave a much smoother edge to your work. When you are doing this, make sure that you can see your entire canvas area so that you are aware of what is actually being selected before you delete the selected area(s). Don't worry if you are unable to remove all of the deisred area in this manner. You can go back later and clean up areas by using the erasure tool with varying brush and pressure settings to get your work exactly how you want. It takes time to learn all the little tricks but if you keep practicing on various images then it will become much easier for you. Don't let your placement in this contest discourage you from learning how to use Photoshop or how much fun it can be. / Well done, welcome to freaking news. You might like to participate in the apprentice contest where you have more time. You can compete as an apprentice until you have 5 gold trophies. / Welcome to Freaking News. Looks like brushes you used have rough edges. C00per has excellent critiques on improvement. / Thanks for all the help.Now go and critique my new Entry The Sit In. In the Durer contest. I need all the help I can get. Thanks xoxoooxox
Transsexual American Gothic pictures - I just couldn't help myself. / 'American Gothic' gets chopped so much that it is bound to be duplicated in a contest. Click Here. Your version is also a good one. Nice and clean work. Great minds think alike, I guess. / ACK. I should have known it had already been done. Was a can't-sleep-in-the-middle-of-the-night inspiration and I was quite amused while working on it. Sorry c00per. I didn't mean to "copy" your chop. / Things like this happen naturally I suppose. I think we should allow this entry to stay because the author obviously came up with the idea independently and did slightly different execution. / It's ok, no harm done. Like I said, this was bound to happen with all the chops that 'American Gothic' is subjected to. The good news is that you did it justice with a nice clean chop so your entry certainly should not be removed from the contest.
