We should have a competition. A Photoshop/GIMP challenge.

Make a realistic UFO image. The scene should look normal except for the UFO. People can be pointing, oblivious, or not even present. It should look like the photo was snapped 'spur of the moment'. We should have a poll to decide the winner.

Anyone want to play?

Sure! I'm heading out in 5 minutes but I'll give it a go at some point.

I take it we have to create the UFO ourselves? Or can we use a cutout of one and just try and make it blend in to look as if it was there when the picture was taken?

Aye kool,I'll probs give this a shot tomorrow or something.

I don't much fancy making the UFO from scratch though.

^That's exactly the type of work I was looking for. Nice job, Toasty!
Petey, you mean you have a real image, or one you made??

I'm not on my home machine (no image software other than MSPaint) so I will make some later today.

You can cut/paste the UFO. It doesn't have to be from scratch, but I think if it is completely fabricated, it should get better ratings. I think it would be cool to eventually see some of our UFO images touted as 'real'. That would be hilarious.

Niiice. Did you use an image of a UFO, or did you make it yourself?
Now I can't wait to get back home.

Aaah. Ok. Had me hoping for a minute. X-)

Toasty, I love how it's an old school UFO shape, and that you made the image fit it.

I'm half-tempted to install GIMP on this craptop. Does GIMP work in Windows Vista?

Here's a picture overlooking Chicago that I took from The Ledge at SkyDeck on the Sears Tower:

Kindly modified to trick the general public.

This one uses a UFO I found online, cleaned up, and then I added an artificial shadow (which is hard to see in this anyway).

It does, but I wouldn't try the 64-bit version of Gimp on it. I'm using 64-bit on Server 2008 R2 (W7), and it seems to work great -- but I wouldn't trust Vista to use it. I'd go with 32.

I won't lie. I swore that you put the helicopter in there at first. I kinda facepalmed.

But then I noticed it -- nice job!
