chalange suggestions for Photo Editing Contest

[Master Mason]

So,

Could you fine folks please give me some suggestions for the photo editing contest for next year. I would like to put togeter a weekly calender like Dana does for the Picture contest, so that if someone wanted to they could work ahead or keep it in the back of their minds.

Here are some that I have come up with, we will need 52 or will have to repeat some.

In addition to the ones we have already done or are listed

Add a frame
make a digital scrapbook page
Sharpening
vignetting
repair a photo
make a photo look old
add something that is not sized (like add a big head to someones body)
Color correction

What other suggestions do you have?

Thanks
Gregg

I allways like to play with the liquify tool in photoshop. I think other programs call it warp or other names. It can be used to make someone look skinnier (there a bunch of youtube video of it) or it can just be used to give your photo a wacky look.

You could make it a generic "distort reality" category.

And Out of Bounds is always a classic category.

Swapping Faces/Bodies is one of the first things I did with photo editing software, and that was even before I had photoshop. Although I suppose that my head on Ariel's body could cause some irreparable psychological damage.

actually seeing your siggy that could be one as well, design a siggy graphic

turn a photo into a painting

creative use of text

making a grey sky blue (or changing the color of an element in a photo)

morph an image (eg., making a human face look like a tiger)

To make some Disney themes:

decorate Cinderella's castle

decorate the now plain Spaceship Earth

turn the Sorcerer's hat into a christmas tree (or something other than the hat)

transform the tree of life or mt. everest

add a character or characters to an image

design a disney holiday/event t-shirt

Gregg - thank you for all the hard work you put into the contest. I'm sorry I haven't participated more but I was busy getting ready for an IRS audit of my home business Thankfully, the agent came today and within an hour I had passed with flying colors so I now have time to do something a little more fun

I saw an interesting photoshop contest once where the contest involved six very different images and the contest was to make something creative by combining elements of all six. (fairly advanced)

Maybe just a combine two pictures week?

You could also do a few weeks of just a topic- it would be more like the photography contest but with PP work allowed/encouraged.

Or maybe a mood to try to achieve- like fantasy or dark/scary (Halloween week?)
