Welcome to the newest Cracked.com Photoshop Contest. It will run from
Friday May 9th until Wednesday May 14th.
If you've never played before, it works like this:
1. We're going to give you a theme;
2. You will make an amusing photoshop image that conforms to that theme;
3. You will post it in this thread;
4. You can submit as many entries as you want;
5. If your image has naked people in it, please just link to the image rather than including the picture itself in your post;
6. In a week we will pick a winner and run it on the front page of Cracked.com, along with the runners-up, thus making you instantly world famous.
7. The first-place winner will win FIVE THOUSAND pennies, which is $50.
8. The runners-up will win THE SATISFACTION OF KNOWING THEY ALMOST WON and other than that, not a damned thing.
9. Please leave this thread just to the entries, no chit-chat. If you want to talk about the entries, start a new thread.
10.
IMPORTANT: Entries can be no wider than 480 pixels. Any bigger and it's automatically disqualified.
11. If you're completely new to the concept of posting images online, you'll have to find some place to host your image, like
photobucket.com where they'll host your image for free. Then you just link to it.
I know there is a forum file attachment upload feature but it doesn't work for everybody.
Couldn't be simpler. Ready?
Okay. This week's theme is:
What The '08 Presidential Campaign Would Look Like if the Candidates Had Balls.
What would their bumper stickers, T-Shirts, campaign ads, rallies, speeches, press conferences... parades... whatever, look like if they decided they weren't spinning, soft pedaling or sugar coating a damn thing until November, and just started telling shit like it is?
EDIT:
YES, WE KNOW BARACK OBAMA IS BLACK. Thank you for all the many, many, early entries where you used MS Paint to put a bucket of fried chicken and malt liquor in his hand. Those have all now been deleted, as they don't have a single fucking thing to do with the premise of the contest.
On the positive side, here's a nice entry from FoodStampDavis:
And here's an imaginative, if disturbing, early entry from Darth Fugly:
Come on, let's put some effort in, people. Go to it!
