[ -> N/A]

Hey kids, fire up those warezed copies of photoshop and get to work. We here at DAC have got a contest for you! In honor of our new friend Eric Dallaire, aka Cabal aka Special ED aka a Lionheart developer, we're holding a competition to see who can manipulate <a href="http://www.duckandcover.net/Killzig/specialed.jpg">his photo</a> in the most embarassing manner. The top three entries as decided by Kreegle, Saint and myself will be given an e-mail address @duckandcover.net (beats hotmail...really!) Click the photo for the full size of the picture we want all of you to work off of... <center>

Now before you kids start hitting the gay pr0n sites let's lay down some guidelines. No porn, at least not hardcore...maybe a lil softcore but seriously, if I can see anything pink I'm banning you from the contest. Here are a couple of examples of previous dev manipulations so that you can get a general idea of what we're looking for... <a href="http://www.duckandcover.net/proverbius/ ... jpg">Chris Avellone</a>...<a href="http://www.duckandcover.net/Killzig/rel ... jpg">Chris Taylor</a>. 

E-mail all entries to <a href="mailto:Killzig@duckandcover.net">Killzig@duckandcover.net</a>. Contest runs til October 3rd so get cracking! 

Edit: It's been brought to my attention that ED looks a whole lot like Janet Reno so cutting and pasting his head onto her body is also unacceptable as an entry.

I'm on it.

Just to let you know that my entries will suck as I only have MSPaint

Uhh, I want a DAC mail address! But I have no l33t photoshop skills... actually I dont even have a copy of photoshop right now.... Erh... Bummer.

Are there any crappiest entry prizes? Like where I get a shirt saying "DAC Dunce"? If so, im in! 8)

Hey, neither do I, only years of practise with MSPaint. The lack of colours on it can really make an edited picture look so... obvious.

sure some amount of judging occurs on the image quality but mostly its how funny it is. so don't sweat it :D

Are several entries allowed?

Enter the competition as many times as you want!

TheReaper · Post by **TheReaper** » Fri Aug 23, 2002 5:52 am

Damn, that's better than my ideas. Hm, gotta think of funny things now...

I like the idea in general. It works for Something Awful. I myself lack Photoshop and any idea what the fuck I'm doing, as well a sense of humor (or at least a good one) so I'm out.

Blergh, I couldn't get sleep so I made another one?
This is how you sell games, kids.

Heh, that looks good but I think that would encourage me to run away from it if that was the cover. It scares me deep down.

Kids, stay away from steroids.

I like how the left bosom is just a bit larger. Classy.
