Nobody outside of PSC would "get it". Only we folk stare so expectantly at empty blue boxes... until the red x appears, then we groan and move on. It has everything to do with Photoshop - that's where the 90 frames were created in a big layered doc. About

funny, but I don't see why it's getting all these votes for best manipulation of the original scorpion pic. This could have been done with any contest on PSC

I agree with everybody who is against this pic.. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SCORPION!! why is this getting votes?? I can make this in, let's say, a week or five, and post it in any contest!! 'Cause no source pic is used!

oh, c'mon, stop complaning... ok, this has nothing to do w/ psc (well... maybe it has) but y'all have to agree that its goddamn funny... once in a while things like this have to happen around here! it's just so freakin' bizarre it starts making some sense

it IS funny..I agree. But still... It's got nothing to do with photoshop manipulation skills pertaining to the featured pic. Which, again, is the point of this contest.

I said it was funny. But criticized how it's not really a manipulation of the Scorpion pic.(although you flashed a small section of it.) But anyway, that's just my *opinion*.

I don't think it's a matter of opinion - you're factually incorrect. I explained the manipulation in my second to last comment (plus I did another manipulation just for my bait-thumbnail). Anyway - a lot more manipulation than some people get away with (e

It's 82k let's not fuss about an extra 12k. For 90 frames of animation - that aint bad. If it was, dewking would have stopped by here with a comment (he's very diligent and thorough!) I did have a cropped version of this at about half the size, but unfort
