WOW!
Thanks to Diane, Dragonlady, Larry, Rachel, Mac, and Boris for entering my photo challenge. Since Rachel insisted, I picked an ending date for this contest, and it is TODAY!

You guys all did a fine job at re-creating the photo of me.

Even though Mac and Larry cheaaaaaaaaaaated by using photoshop or something similar, I must admit they were both great photoshopping jobs, even though Larry’s interpretation of me/him was some sort of trashy drag queen, lol. But sorry guys, I must give the win to someone who didn’t use the same photo.

Dragonlady did a good job too, with her hands and body in the same position as mine, but I think she was too tired to mess with it much, and only participated to make me feel better, lol.

Rachel, as Boris and noted, came closest to me in boob size, and he thought she should win, but if the world was like that, if women got things based on boob size… wait.. it is like that, lol.

And Boris, although he had planned to do something artsy-shmartsy, decided to go with the masses and just pose in front of his computer at the same angle.

These were all great entries, but the winner has to go to the one that had the most points of similarity, and that would be the first entrant, Diane. I was really impressed with all the trouble Diane went through to make her pic look so much like mine. Please note the photo below, which I’ve numbered and explained below the photo:

1. Her hair is partially in the front of her shoulder and partially behind.
2. Long sleeved light colored shirt
3. Hands in the same position
4. Keyboard at the same angle to the monitor

About the papers on the wall: She has two pages partially showing, and two sets of papers overlapping each other, just like mine. And more details about these pages…

5. Thumbtacks in this set of pages, two of them (you might see this better in the larger photos)
6. Yellow post-it note on this page

7. Green soda can in the right spot
8. Brown leather purse in the right spot
9. Phone in the right spot.

AMAZING DIANE! CONGRATS! I’ll be sending you the copy of that newspaper. Not an amazing prize, I know, but that’s all I can do, lol. Oh yeah, and not to make a cheap prize cheaper, but if anyone else wanted a newspaper from here, just tell me, lol.

PS, Tried to send trackbacks to everyone on this post, it’s not workingggg
