All I know is I spent 3-4 hours on my photoshop job... whether or not some of you guys have a trained eye for it that's another story. I also made mine with Edelbrock in mind thinking "how would they advertise?"

Had I known it was just to make a cool picture with either a lot of images thrown into the mix, or half naked chicks... i would have went a totally different route...

It's my fault though... I didn't read so much into it when it said it will be judged by fellow LS1Tech members. One thing i've learned is always keep in mind the type of crowd your advertising to

P.S. I'm not trying to start crap or anything guys so please don't take it that way. Just simply trying to state my thoughts when making my photo. I'm actually honored that I'm in the top 3

I gotta ask though... how come all of a sudden all the mods jumped in here? I find that a little humorous... someone start a thread in the mod forum by any chance?

We're all friends here. Not to mention some of us knew about this contest. If you can't see the lounge then it doesnt exist.

Your deletion reason was even better "wrong". Your right it is wrong to pad your votes. So how many names do you have that you used to cast bogus votes? This is a contest man come on, and from my view YOU ARE CHEATING. If your picture is so good why do you need bogus votes? You know what my vote is? That you get DQ'd on this one.

Go ahead and delete your message again. We can still dig it back up if need be.
For sure Busted!

IDK, I agree with Soul TKR, I spent alot of time on my entries! I kept in mind though of what alot of members on here would like to see (seeing as they would be the judges) and from what I've seen before, most of the members on here want to see scantelly clad women with hot cars! So I'm still wondering why my scantelly clad entry didn't make it into the Top 11? But oh well..at least Eddie made it

Now, I don't want to stir the pot more than it already has, but where were the mods in the previous thread when all hell was breaking loose....and there were people with what looked to be 'troll accounts' posting votes for themselves...and such?
Something gets said about a fellow mod, and almost every mod on this forum chimes in!

****, me personally, I don't care anymore whom wins, and if Tiffany wins, well then she had the better 'use of the Edelbrock logo'
IMO, her entry was way better done than some peoples (whom shall remain nameless)...but ultimately.......

CANT WE ALL JUST GET ALONG??

Well the mods have spoken and reflect exactly what I was "complaining" about.

Pictures were found via a Google Image search, IIRC that falls under the "Fair Use" policy, but I might be incorrect. Either way its free content.

It's going to be an endless argument, so I will just step away.

If I was contacting all the mods for votes, I would have well into the hundreds by now. Nope, I was just asking some friends for opinions. I was getting bashed because I entered a contest. I thought it was fairly harmless... now because I am winning (still haven't won) everyone is trying to make me feel bad?!? I don't think THAT is fair! I worked hard on my image too. It may not look like it because I didn't throw a bunch of things into it. However, it took a lot of time to perfect it and make it look like it wasn't Photoshopped. Hell, if I wanted to cheat I could go into any lobby and offer everyone a topless picture if they voted for me ...or maybe a free calendar. Who knows. If I wanted more votes... I could get them. I am just trying to let the contest run its course. Besides, I am sure they will do an IP/name check before deciding the winners. If they find numerous votes from the same IP, that person will be disqualified.

What a bunch of crybabies. Hell, I didn't even vote, just to keep it fair.

But, now that we are seeing Dimitr/Diablo using multiple usernames and cheating, I will remove his images from the poll. We do not like cheaters here, and you are BUSTED.

not sure if any of you guys realize the real fact here.
i clicked on the link and checked out every one of these great photoshops, i like allot of them, but for some reason (not because she is a mod), i voted for Z.

she didnt ask me to or even tell me she was running in this contest. i now see this, and think to myself.
no offence to anyones hard work, but a hot classy chick with a hot classy car and the logo on there is A++ for my eyes
