After reading all those comments, I'm almost too tired to vote. Nice work though.

re: comments below. Are you shitting me? two of the most famous chops ever made here (j-elzic's portside and metalic's marathoners) didn't even use the source, but rather were 'inspired' by it. Go complain to them.
|

I like what you did. I did see it without the lines and i liked it then too..

yellow bugs are the taxi's the larger bugs are the trucks, and the ant with the leaf is the one with the ladder on the top ;) YES and seamusoisin caught what I was doing with the dragonfly!
|
|
|
Showcase
I dont get it. what happened to the starting image? did you actually use it anywhere in this?
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
yes Showcase, the source was used as a reference for this creation. whats not to get? But you are correct... there isnt any source here
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
Its not like I'm breaking new ground, many people have replaced entire source images to come up with 'something completely different'
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
If you do a side by side comparison of this with the original, you'll see what I have done here.
|
|
|
|
Showcase
from the front page: "At Photoshop Contest users take a randomly chosen image, manipulate it and post it for the others to view, vote, comment and submit their own versions. "
|
|
|
|
Showcase
I get what you did but I dont get why. The idea is to change the starting image, not create a completely new image "inspired" but the starting image.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
NFS Showcase. sorry you dont like it. this isnt like I took a freakn picture and just posted it. It has most of the 'elements' as bugs now. call this "my own version"
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
I've been here long enough to know the 'idea' who says you cant do what I've done... again its not like I posted a picture of some other random street with cars on it. everything thats placed is "inspired" as you say from the source.
|
|
|
|
Showcase
I think you're wrong to say that "many people have replaced the entire source". It doesnt happen that often. If this sort of approach becomes normal, whats the sense of having a starting image?
|
|
|
|
Showcase
May was well go with a themed contest and just provide ideas. Anywaaaaay, I can tell you're extremely offended so I'll drop it. Keep on truckin'
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
PM me if you wish to continue this convo, and heres another example... photoshopcontest.com... & I got second place for that one. apparently you missed it.
|
|
|
|
Showcase
and for the record, I never said I didnt like what you did here.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
I'm not extremely offended, just curious why you CARE so much.
|
|
|
|
Vlad
Gotta agree with TheShaman on this. In fact I find this kind of image very creative and obviously an adaptation of the source. Also the rules are - there are no rules. Just don't vote if it bothers you.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
thank you Vlad! and agreed, theres plenty of other images, I could totally understand if there were money involved, but this is supposed to be about having FUN> I was merely trying to be different than the rest
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
oh and another example of something thats not mine that has been inspired by the source, photoshopcontest.com... It's Clafs
|
|
|
|
Showcase
Vlad, I am not saying its not creative...but there IS one rule...Manipulate the starting image. TheShaman didnt do that...and I can't catch them all :)
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
I didnt know you were part of the 'source police' Showcase LMFAO
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
how bout this one photoshopcontest.com... WINNING THE FREAKING CONTEST HERE
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
not as great of an example but still, all I could come up with recently, I'm not about to go though thousands of entries to prove a point... with that I SAY GOODAY!
|
|
|
|
Showcase
look, forget it. I care too much?? Look in the mirror. One comment that isnt gratuitous praise and you've been offended and totally gone on the defensive . I didnt vote because I think it doesnt fit the contest not because I dont think its creative.
|
|
|
|
Showcase
You're wrong on that last one TheShaman. the bubbles are the pebbles in the substrate.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
thats why I said it wasnt a good example, anyway.... whoopie, you dont think it fits the contest. dont vote for it then. I never said you cared too much, just asked if you were part of the source police.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
Im upset because I put a S**tload of time into this one. Did I think it would win? No, I just wanted to do something alittle different than the rest of the pack. Sorry It is not up to your rules.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
who wants to see 60 images that are basically the same chop anyway?
|
|
|
|
Showcase
In fact, wise guy, Im the Chief of the Source Police. You'll be receiving your citation in the mail.
|
|
|
|
Showcase
oh, now you're so offended you're saying that the other entries lack creativity and arent worth looking at? ;)
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
Great! I look forward to it Show. Check will be right back at ya in the mail. :P And no worries man, I dont have any more of these types of Inspirations coming up.
|
|
|
|
Showcase
and they are NOT my rules. its always been this way and as near as I can see, it wont change any time soon. and trust me, if I had seen the other images you linked for example, I would have made the same comments to them.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
yeah thats it Showcase, put words in my mouth. I love that effing game. please. Again, I as in me wanted to do something different. Move along Simon
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
great! atleast you're trying to be consistant.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
Oh and thank you again Chief for the argument here on my entry, instead of taking this privately like I requested. Youre points are taken, for what its worth. I will try my best to live up to 'the rules'
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
LMFAO I just went though all of my 170 images, I have 2 WHOLE votes from Showcase. TWO. I'm not upset anymore. I'm arguing with someone who doesnt like my work anyway....
|
|
|
|
Showcase
meh. I just dont vote much. Dont take it too personal. Im sorry you wasted all that time going through 170 images.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
not taking anything personal Show. (i know this is just for fun) and dont think I changed this for you.... I actually like the change, but I will give you credit for pushing me to do it.
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
I'm sure I'll get some flak for changing this after all we went though for not sticking to my guns now Show LOL
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
[img] img.photobucket.com... for those who missed what the drama was about.. my original picture posted
|
|
|
|
CarlC
like = vote - dislike = no vote all other arguments are useless, which is a lot cleaner than what I wanted to say, btw Shaman I thought you'd like yesterdays post, did you miss it or just didn't like it? For what its worth I value your opinions h
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
Thank you Tofudisan for a great idea... Fire Ant Lane has now been added!
|
|
|
|
Vlad
Perfect now everyone can vote for it due to the sprinking of source!
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
LOL Vlad! & Thanks again for sticking up for me before!
|
|
|
|
TheShaman
oh just because I looked up 'manipulate' for fun.... to change by artful or unfair means so as to serve one's purpose... yep sounds like what I had done in the first place LMFAO
|

I think it'd look better without the painted lines.

TheShaman
[img] img.photobucket.com... this one is without painted lines DoaC
|
|
|
|
Showcase
Feral, you're WRONG. J-elzics used the rope and metalic's used all kinds of elements from the original such as the asphalt, the yellow lines, sneakers, etc....but nice try. :)
|
|
|
|
Showcase
MIKEY, YOU GOTTA GET A GRIP DUDE. I CAN COMMENT JUST LIKE THE REST OF YOU. UNLIKE THE "MANIPULATE THE STARTING IMAGE" RULE, THERE ISNT A RULE ABOUT VOTING IN ORDER TO COMMENT. YOU'LL BE OK. TRUST ME.
|
|
|
|
Showcase
TheShaman, nice addition of the source. See? Was that so hard? :)
|
|
|
|
Showcase
also, TheShaman, if you're going to go all technical with definitions, you didnt change anything by any means, artful or otherwise. You created something all together new. thats not the same as manipulate...but nice try :)

Does this win the "Most Commented" award?
|

Death of a Clown
My chalk entry didn't have any of the original source either. It did fairly well.
|

No Cambria, I dont know if it was the most commented one, but I had 78 comments on this entry: photoshopcontest.com...
