A disqualified contest

Last few weeks, i took part in a online Photoshop contest which required the participant to modify a given image. Although the contest will be organized every Thursday (where a new theme/question will be given), this is the 1st time i participate in this contest.

On that particular week, a theme named "Hallway' was given and we have to modify the image based on our own imagination. Just a glance of moment I'd got the inspiration, i decided to give it a try.

The following shows the original picture given by the question and the modified version by myself.

The original image provided

20% of the work, where the twirling process is done.

70% of the work, color blending and twirling mist is created

However, i was disqualified from the contest due to Copyright issue. The contest does not allow picture that was originated from "Googling" or the one that has been copyrighted. Those images from flickr.com and some other websites are the one i supposedly to take from. The images i used "illegally" are the one from Ju-on and The ring. Well, all was my own fault as i did not read the rules and terms before participate. HAHA.

The "The Ring" image i googled

The "Ju-On" image i googled.

Since my picture has been disqualified, the picture is belong to me already. XD

Souvenir: chocolate

13 July 2010

It's happy when someone is really remember us, especially when they are on vacation. It doesn't matter what kind of souvenir or how expensive they brought to us, most importantly is they really keep you in their heart, as a friend, or even close one. That's what a true friend is.

I received a bar of chocolate from Ms. Sue, a young and talkative little girl :) when she came back from Langkawi last week. This Cadbury probably can't be found in most of the hypermarket, as it contains liquor inside it, which makes it as a non-halal food. ( Maybe there are, but i haven't saw any of it.)

Well, it feels so good to received a souvenir from someone, which proving they are really keeping you in your mind and the real meaning of friendship.


Hereby, i would like to say thank you for your chocolate and, it's really good to have a friend like you, and as a "brudder"...tee hee~~
