Ok, we're not stupid. We know there's going to be a number of folks out there who try to sneak around our categories by simply photoshopping the RepcoBuddy into large group shots or exotic locations. So, to minimize any potential "cheating" we're going to give you artists out there a category of your own. Turn your creative side loose and come up with the most bizarre, most unique, funny or original composition and you could win one of our Wii's.
The ObjectivePretty basic and open-ended. Open up Photoshop (or any photo-manipulator program) and start getting creative. Or, if you're not a big computer geek, compose a painting or a sketch or a drawing or a comic strip of the RepcoBuddy. Be unique, be original. Create something profound and insightful or just create something profounding hilarious. Overall, just have fun!
Category Specific Rules- RULE 1: This is the ONLY category where a Photoshopped or computer-manipulated image is acceptable. ALL OTHER COMPUTER-MANIPULATED IMAGES SUBMITTED TO ANY OTHER CATEGORY WILL RESULT IN A DISQUALIFICATION OF ALL OF THE CONTESTANTS PHOTOS!
Winning Photos Will Be Determined Based on the Following:- Artistic Flair and Creativity. (Of course, in an artistic category like this one, one of the biggest factors in determining the winner is going to be your ability to present us with something unique and creative. Simply photoshopping the RepcoBuddy into a Grand Canyon setting may not be good enough . . . but photoshopping him into a Grand Canyon setting where he's driving a team of mules down the steep slopes, bringing supplies to tourists trapped there after a collapse of some sort . . . well, that's got a ton more potential).
- Comedy Value of the Shot. (Hey, we're not terribly stuffy here--if you send us something really, really funny, that's definitely going to help your chances).
- Unique Interpretation. (If you decide to submit a painting or a sketch or a comic strip to this category, we will be looking for the uniqueness of your interpretation. A nice water color of the RepcoBuddy may be suitable for framing, but a cubist interpretation might be more interesting . . . .)
