I hope we get a few more.... There is so many people who are good at photoshop on here I thought this would be a good challenge....

Might have to make next month a little easier

I'm suprised there isnt more already... If I knew how to work photoshop I would have attempted another one, but using ms paint really is hard work... Especially windows 7 version, the old xp one was easy to use and I could actually make things look half descent.


I didnt think this month/competition was that hard of a demand though. :?

Haven't had a chance to get out yet- how much longer do I have?
I may have to resort to going through my old files and seeing what I have... :(

Another one?? I thought it was one entry per person?
I haven't really got the time to spend a few hours on something for fun at the mo- that's why I knocked that one up quickly!! :(

Haha :D if I had half a day spare to play about I would do another one but unfortunately must crack on with client's work instead!! If I get a spare hour, I may knock up another quickie though to keep the competition going :D

Not really up to the Photoshop challenge. Will this photo of Cheryl Cole sitting on my car do instead?

I realise it has technical limitations but it was just a spur of the moment snap.
