Optical Illusions pictures - Photoshop magic tricks (illusions, levitations, invisibility, etc.) that may come in handy in day-to-day situations.
Currency Illusions pictures -
Apparently the currency super-imposing craze is spreading into the US too, and not just with celebrity money illusions, but also with Currency Building Illusions.
In your entries you should include a banknote (or any country) folded so that any object (building, etc.) depicted on the banknote (except for people) is merged with any object of your choice, similar to how it's done in this example. Feel welcome to use currencies of any countries - most of them have national famous buildings and objects that can be superimposed and merged with real life objects. You can use any banknote parts, not just the central ones. Please don't forget to include the name of the object / building in the entry title.
As you remember our prequel contest - Celebrity Money - was featured by many media sources and websites (e.g. Digg). Let's make this contest popular too with many quality entries!
Partial Illusions pictures -
Latest marketing trick in advertising on cars is to do a paint-job which extends a picture of a driver. Such gimmick quickly grabs the viewer's attention which then slides to an advertising message next to the paint-job.
Take any object/person and partially cover it with another object with a picture that continues the partially covers object - this way that the whole composition makes an illusion that the two objects are part of the whole. Think of paintings, magazines, buildings with paint-jobs covering anything extending its picture and making an illusion. Here's an
example 1 , example 2, and example 3.
This contest is a generalization of our popular celebrity money contest where celebrities needed to be partially covered with banknotes.

Illusionist pictures - illusionist / The gentleman at the back would look better with his right side blended to match the background so that there was no lighting.
