Iranian Missiles Photoshop pictures -
This Saturday we continue our little freaking experiment with photoshopping of provided source images.
As you know, Iranian news agency released a public photo of an Iranian Missile test showing the firing of several long range missiles that may hit targets as far as 2000 miles away. The missile test was meant to show that Iran is capable of striking back if it is attacked. Most world news agencies, newspapers and magazines published this famous photo, before realizing that it has been photoshopped.
To honor the photoshop skills of our Iranian colleagues, we are asking you to
photoshop any of these two photos any way you wish: Iranian Missiles Test ORIGINAL image (CLICK HERE to download), or Iranian Missiles Test PHOTOSHOPPED image (CLICK HERE to download).
These are the highest resolution images of the Iranian missile tests we could get hold of. If you can provide us with higher resolution images, please email us
.
One Wheeled Vehicles pictures -
Uno motorcycle made its debut at the National Motorcycle Show in Toronto. With two wheels side by side, it looks like a hybrid of Segway and a motorcycle. Uno motorcycle is fully functional and can achieve speeds of up to 100 miles an hour.
Photoshop one wheeled vehicles: motorcycles with just one wheel, cars with just one wheel, unicycles, ATV with just one wheel, etc. Two wheels are acceptable if they are located in the middle, side by side like in a Segway.
Turtles pictures - Photoshop this turtles image (CLICK HERE to download) any way you wish. Examples may giving these turtles some clothes or objects, merging these turtles with some other animals, placing these turtles into some environment, movies, paintings. These are just some ideas.
You have 3 days to submit your entry. Submitting it early will give you plenty of time to read the critique comments and edit your image accordingly.
Many thanks to Jeff Jones and Stock Exchange for providing the source image.
Apples pictures -
Yesterday was "Johnny Appleseed Day" in the United States. Johnny Appleseed was a real person and was among the settlers. As he moved across the country he planted apple trees along the way and sold the trees to settlers. These days, most apple trees across the United States are the descendants of the first apple trees Johnny Appleseed once planted.
To honor Johnny Appleseed, photoshop apples any way you wish. Some examples are - show what life would be like if apples ruled, show creative uses for apples; merge apples with other objects, fruits and vegetables; apples in movies and paintings, etc.
Neckless Celebrities pictures -
Many women with short neck wonder what jewelry would make it look longer. Stylists recommend wearing long necklace which makes the neck look longer and gives overall slimming visual effect. Women with short neck or round face should avoid choker necklaces and loops or hoops since they will make their necks appear even shorter.
Let's see how celebrities would look like if they had no neck at all. Photoshop celebrities or politicians without necks one way or another. You are welcome to choose the "anatomical details" (e.g. whether you keep the mouth or remove it with the neck), but you should definitely remove the neck. Here's one quick example.
Turtles pictures -
The end of the Labor Day weekend coincides with the beginning of sea turtle season at many US beaches and on sea shores in other parts of the world.
The season lasts till the end of October and it is the time when sea turtles are hatching from their eggs on beaches and sea shores. Luckily for them, many more eggs will survive now that the summer beach boom is over.
Photoshop turtles any way you wish. Examples may include - showing how the world would be different if turtles ruled, merging turtles with other animals or people, including turtles in paintings, etc. We will allow any type of turtles, even the human-created ones from cartons and movies (like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).
Goodbye Alberto Gonzales pictures -
Alberto Gonzales, the first U.S. Attoreny General of Hispanic origin,
announced his resignation from the job on Monday. President
George Bush accepted this resignation with regrets saying that
"Attorney General's clear name was dragged through the mud."
Alberto Gonzales came under fire from Democratic and Republican
congressmen, for poor handling of FBI terror investigations, and
sudden firing of several U.S. Attorneys. Gonzales' departure comes
just weeks after the resignation of another White House top ranking
official, Karl Rove, who like Gonzales was a close friend of President
George Bush.
To mark the resignation of U.S. Attorney General Alberto
Gonzales, photoshop him any way you wish. Examples may include
showing what jobs and personal life the future holds for him; how he
could have lived his life alternatively if he were born back in
history (e.g. medieval times), include Gonzales in movies, paintings,
advertisements, etc.

Some examples may include missiles as toys, new consumer products made from missiles (mini version is fine), use them in advertisements, or place ads on them, apply creative paint jobs, or integrate missiles into works of art. These are just some rough ideas.

Fruits, Vegetables in Space? pictures - [ Chinese have launched their first "breeding" satellite, with the sole mission to carry seeds of vegetables, fruits and other plants into space, expose them to cosmic radiation and micro-gravity in hopes they mutate into better breeds which can be cultivated on earth upon return. ]I know that every fifth person on earth is Chinese, so they are the experts when it comes to breeding and cultivation. But launching a bag of seeds into space in hopes they mutate into something better is like sending Mel Gibson in space and naively hoping he'll come back sober. Or launching Paris Hilton into space in hopes she'll bring back new strains of STDs for scientific research. OK the last one may actually be pretty plausible provided that there's at least some "matable" life on other planets. Still, the Earth could be a safer place if Paris were 'boldly staying where no one has stayed before'.
In this contest you are asked to photoshop one of the following:
1) Show how gardening and cultivating (fruits, vegetables, or other plants) will happen in space (on planets, moons or in free space). Including (or not) astronauts is up to you.

3) Planets or sun made of fruits or vegetables
