Superdog and Newspaper Stand pictures - CiCi is a normal dog. 'CC' is a superdog. But what nobody knows, is that they are one and the same. / Very good. . . . and my wife's favorite so far. My only 2 technical suggestions would be to try fading the tie just a tad more and make the whites of the newspaper photo look like the the newsprint color (in other words, if you look at a black-and-white pic in a newspaper, the lightest parts aren't any whiter than the bare paper). / I love this. The most amazing and superbly done entry in this contest, in my opinion. / Thanks for the feedback so far. Raygregory, I've made the two changes you've suggested. Looks better now, doesn't it. / Yes, I agree, certainly looks much more real now. The one other thing I would suggest (tho I realize it's too late now to change it), would be to add some brightness/contrast to the whole thing. I think that would liven it up some. Here's a tip: Often when I do something, it looks great on my screen. But then when I load it up to FN after it's "optimized," it looks kinda lame. I've found that by adding an adjustment mask on top of all the layers and then over-revving either the saturation or the brightness/contrast (this takes some experimentation), the uploaded image can be much improved. / Lotsa work went into this one. Great job. / Very funny idea backed up by some great choppage / Even better after edit - see ya in the top 3. / great idea, i love the reflection , just awsome / cool idea, but a little blurry. it needs lit'le more of contrast and sharpness -for me. / . First place with a 7.7. Thanks everyone. I noticed in the voting history that I voted relatively low for the entries in this contest. This was not my intention. This is only the second contest I'm participating in and I haven't had much experience with voting so far. I wouldn't have given my own image any more than a 6 I think. So, my apologies for my low voting. It was not my intention to be unfair. edit: I now see that the first contest I participated in, was an ADVANCED Photoshop contest, and this one an APPRENTICE contest. So I guess I was comparing these images to the ones in the advanced contest.
