[Edit: Since GIMP does PSD, that's what we're going to use. That way people who use Photoshop can play too.]

Ok, here we go again. However, there is an important rule. Hopefully it will improve the contest, not hurt it; it will allow a LOT more creative editing without hurting the quality of the image.

The rule is: You must use GIMP/Photoshop, and you must post the PSD file with all layers intact.

That way, no recursive JPEG loss of quality, and you can move stuff around without having to select it every time, etc.

If you need help hosting the PSD file (be sure to zip it up first, of course), e-mail it to me and I will put it up for you: blujay@blujay.us

Without further ado, here's the starting point:

Aside from gbk, Mystic0, and Shintock, who here uses GIMP?

And now an example of something you can do by doing it this way.

GIMP can read PSDs, so maybe you should use those.

Oh...heh...so it does. Ok, PSD's it is then. (I just hope that GIMP can read PSD's made by Photoshop.)

Considering that PSD is the Photoshop standard...I should hope so.

Well, I just meant that I hope Gimp supports every feature of the PSD format. It's not unheard of for a program to partially support a format (like Gimp and multipage TIFFs).
