This sub-contest is for the $800 PublisherForums contest.

To recap, the point system instructions and informations can be found at http://www.publisherforums.com/contest/

The prizes are: 35 points for first, and 15 points for second. Winners will be chosen by myself.

Deadline: Friday, February 2nd, 6:00 PM Pacific Time

The Contest

To create the most original photo with the words "PublisherForums.com" displayed somewhere.

It could be funny, serious, strange, beautiful, ugly - it's all up to you! Let your imagination come forth! Use Lego's to construct the letters, write it on your forehead, etc...

I must admit though that I do especially enjoy public photographs, the more public the better (Ex. chalk on sidewalk, etc.)

Afte you've taken your photograph, simply post it in this thread!

Rules

Keep it clean/family friendly!
Camera photos only - no scanned drawings or digital art
Photographs may not be digitially altered in a major way - basic lighting or other simple changes are fine.

I believe the deadline passes boron :( I would've done some sidewalk chalk, but the temps fell over 20 degrees in a day, too damn cold out now.

The fame of this forum reached the streets of one of the biggest countries in the world:

Unfortunately that submission is ineligible since the deadline passed several days ago and I must be strict with the rules.

Regarding whether it's been Photoshopped or not, I've contacted boron privately about this. It's hard to tell as it looks genuine, but I was able to change the photo with another URL and it looks pretty genuine as well...

Anyhow, hopefully it is real :) If so, he will be allowed to resubmit this into a future competition since he is too late for this one.

I've contacted boron privately about this.

However, this has brought up a good point in that I will add a new disclaimer or rule to new photo contests, warning that the photos should be sure that there is no doubt that they are real photos and not photoshopped; taking multiple photos from a couple different angles would be great.
