I too am a head-to-head "virgin" :D Never done a cage match either! (shakin' in my boots..err,umm...slippers) Cleo is flondo's beloved pet.

Hope ya join in! :)

[southcyde]

i might be interested... just a question, are we allowed to use C&P for like bg etc?????

or do we have to brush it all???

hope im not too late :)

[Silky]

Since it's a Photoshop challenge, you can cut and paste, basically use whatever you need to use to create your image, southcyde. Join in if you'd like! :D

[Dave]

No cat mutilating allowed? Dang!

:D

[Pixelpuddles]

Count me in!!

[libra]

Yup, I will definitely do it too, I was worried about time, but I am almost finished the job I was working on anyway.

[ldg40]

Ooooo, Wonderful Libra & Pixelpuddles & of coarse you flondo! (maybe you as well southcyde?) :clap:

I'll post this for submit on Thurs midnight, with Saturday the 28th at midnight for final submission. Until then, hopefully more will join on this exciting challenge!

[flondo]

(By the way, i'm probably out of the loop here but is Cleo a cat I should know about or is she your beloved pet?)

She happens to be THE pet of all pets - she's more like a family member

Loving and warm, she feels fuzzy like a peach - with wrinkles

Her breed is called Sphynx, but has nothing really to do with Egypt.

They were a natural mutation in the late '60s in Ontario, Canada and have become one of the more exclusive, (and expensive) breeds around.

She has appeared here from time to time in some of my images. Some people love her and others don't - I do.

I lost you in the middle there somewhere ldg40... do we have to wait for Thursday or can we start thinking in the meantime?

[QUOTE=libra]I lost you in the middle there somewhere ldg40... do we have to wait for Thursday or can we start thinking in the meantime?[/QUOTE]

Start thinking anytime ya want! ;). Just can't start creating until the first post time. Check out the cage match rules for clarification. (we are on our honor :)) If we get anymore takers by tomorrow then we'll add them in. If not (other admins correct me) I can post this contest for midnight Sunday night. Giving us an extended create/submission time.

You & I both! Feeling a bit (well maybe alot) giddy as well! :D Thanks for joining in! The more the merrier! :)

[down2earth2]

O.K. I'm in. It's do whatever you want with one of Cleo's posted pictures? I have absolutely no ideas, but Cleo is so cool. :) (and Fiondo has already done such cool things with her image). Hey Libra, I never got around to complimenting you on what a good job you did in that last nasty photo restoration. Damn, you good girl! (but you're goin' down in this Cleo thing).

Are we allowed more than one entry?

So Fiondo? You gonna take any more pics of this unique being?

I know. I checked out IDG40's recent stats: 4/9, 1/8, 1/9, 2/9, 2/10. Now I'm afraid to look at anyone else's stats. But who knows? Maybe we'll get lucky.

Hey - I lose more than I win - but that's not what it's about for me - I enjoy seeing other works of art and also creating some.

All the best to all.
