This thread is based off of a few different threads like The Twisted Pictures Machine or Epic Picture Weirdifier. Threads like those have been popping up everywhere, so I thought, "Why not make a contest out of it!" Basicly, this thread is a contest of who can make the funniest/weirdest/coolest picture out of any ordinary photo. I will look for suggestions for pictures from players, once I see one I really like I'll chose the picture and the people will start their editing. I'll chose the best picture and announce the winner.
I agree with Poison, lets all give a 1/10 rating to each of the players' pictures. I'll give a average for each of the pictures and announce the winners.

If you're gonna run a contest like this, you need to use images that you're allowed to use. I don't know if there's specific permissions for that particular fish, but if there isn't, it's illegal to use it like this.
Oh my god I forgot about copyright I'm so sorry I should have got a photo from a photo-sharing website, so sorry. This week's contest is officially cancelled, I'm so sorry to everyone who has already posted their pictures, here is this week's new picture:
There is indeed a way. They can delete the picture, where they got the direct link. And then the picture will disappear. So...the contest is still on, right?
