CONTEST! Enter Here

[SS]CJ · 08-15-2003

I'm a total noob at designing web site stuff. I just published a site for our family business, the Humdinger Drive-In. Here's a link to the site. I've only spend a couple hours on it so far, time consuming stuff.

http://home.comcast.net/~humdinger-d...wsb/index.html

I don't have photoshop, and even if I did, it would take me half a year to get good at editing images. It seems a lot of ppl toy around with sigs, avatarts, etc. There are two pics in the site that I uploaded. One is in the upper left hand corner and the other is in the photo section. I took dig pics of a couple t-shirts and uploaded them to site after changing the bitmap format to jpeg format.

Here's the contest: If anyone feels like messing around with modifying them, go ahead. Post them up on this thread. I'll choose the best one and send that person a Humdinger ballcap that we just got in today, or one of our t-shirts. Either one of them would retail in the $20 range.

Anybody except Rator can enter. If he posted one up, I'd feel to obligated to make him the winner, lol. Now I'm wondering if this thread will even be here the next time I check.

What do you want done with them?

[SS]Snakebite · 08-15-2003

Anyone looking for a person to just sit around and play on photoshop all day?? I'm for hire. :D

Here ya go Jammer. It's not perfect and could be better if I had more time to work on it.

[SS]Snakebite · 08-15-2003

heres the other..

[SS]Arkangel · 08-15-2003

It may not be the most original...but it certainly is the most creative!!

[SS]Snakebite · 08-15-2003

hehe, I like it Ark. Heres an option for the first one. It wouldnt let me post it full size , said it was too big. It's just an example of that image on a brick wall.

C'mon, Snake...throw some Lens Flare in there!!! I know you know more than texturizing!! :D

[SS]Snakebite · 08-15-2003

lol, I thought he just wanted some pics for his website. I didn't know we had to get all fancy. Yeah I know how to do lots of stuff..... don't make me unleash the power of photoshop upon you. heh

[SS]Deadeye-R · 08-15-2003

Here's one with a wood plaque as a background

[SS]Snakebite · 08-15-2003

Ok, Ark and Deadeye just basically stole my pic and put it on a diff background. I say we ban them from the competition. :D

If Snake is complaining that I stole his pic...I wonder how Rator is going to feel! Heheheheh.

I knew there would be a bunch of questions. But if I tried to anwer all anticipated questions, the post would be too long, etc.

Deadeye, just use your imagination. The burger design should be kept along with the font on the image w/green background. We change the colors of our t-shirts everytime we place an order. We dont have an official logo or anything. What we have are some designs that we use for our menus, t-shirts, billboard sign, etc. Nothing we have is electronic media. Heck, the place that does our t-shirts wouldn't even give me a copy of their artwork (even though they charged me $70 an hour to do it). The image that I came up with in the upper left of the site is really sad, and it took me over 2 hours to do it. I don't know how much time Arkangel and Snakebite put in their pics, but they did everything that I was trying to do, which is straghten everything out and clean it up basically.

Snake, the two images that you did are sweet. I know that one with the black text/green background was all crooked. I made a few attempts at straightening it, but I just ended up ruining it. Also, the brick background is a nice touch. I thought it was funny how much the cotton texture showed up when I uploaded them to my pc from dig camera.

Ark, it's cool how you got the image to curve like that and the different colors are tight.

I told my mom what I was doin and she thought it was great. I'm gonna have to print all these out and show em to her. She'll get a kick out of them. I've been trying to get her to come over to check out the site and make comments. She doesn't use a pc at all.

[SS]Arkangel · 08-15-2003

It's too hot to use my imagination.

[SS]Steve-O · 08-16-2003

Can I get a pic from one of your burgers? Just want to see what ones looks like. Call it inspiration.
