Background: A while back, ATOT helped me photochop THIS picture, announcing that I won some crazy award and signed a contract for a movie. Well, this joke was for my best friend, Ben, who works for Dreamworks and does character animation there, so he was skeptical of that screen shot I sent him, but took a wait and see approach.

Present Time: We haven't talked for a week due to work, so I decided this would be the perfect time to give this story an update. My plan is to tell him I went to some premiere event in NYC, by placing a very amateur shot of ME1 or (ME2) and photochopping it into THIS EVENT.

Summary: Basically, I need someone with excellent photochopping skills to place me in that picture as realistic as possible. I prefer to be placed towards the end of the carpet so he can't spot some minor flaws too easily. Obviously, the lighting issue needs to be resolved too. Since I don't know the first thing to Photoshop, any additional materials you may need will be provided upon request.

Reward: The winner will receive either an AMEX Black Card Concierge Request (PROOF) or a $30 gift card. For everyone else in ATOT, a little bit of laughs as I update the forum with the story.

Here are the high-res better lighting pic as requested.

Update #1 (8/11/06): I think we've gotten progressively better. There was another person who experiment with another background. Feel free to do whatever you want. I will post the finalists later tonight/tomorrow morning so we can do an ATOT vote. Didn't think it was going to get this many views!

Update #2 (8/15/06): I would never syringe my faithful ATOT.

I apologize for not getting the voting poll going. A lot of real life issues right now, mainly... a spilt-up of me and my girlfriend of 4 years. As much as you guys love YAGT threads, I won't be doing one for this. It was extremely personal and truth be told, probably more dramatic than ATOT normally sees. Because of this, my best friend and I haven't gotten to this prank yet. It WILL happen soon though - I just need to take care of a few things to resolve the relationship... namely all the junk her and I have at each other's place.

To get this started though, I would like all of you guys to name who you think the winner would be. I will use the top nominations for the poll.

Did you just take that pic of you? Use a flash!!! It will make it easier. Degree of difficulty is high because you are so under exposed.

Oh, and if you can get on something white above the floor without a light switch in your back it will save someone a few minutes.
