Battle #31 - Submit Now! | All Winners | Hall of Fame

OP posts a pic then submitters in the thread take OP's photo and modify it and resubmit. This goes back and forth until something amazing happens.

Weekly battles where one picture is uploaded/selected and people modify the picture and submit it. Entry with the highest upvotes ratio gets to pick the photo for next weeks battle.

This is definitely a great way to increase your skills and have a great time.

  1. Pic requests Please leave the self pic style "Please photoshop me" stuff to /r/picrequests. Mods will remove these posts. If you see a pic request please report it.

  2. Image content When submitting an image please make sure it:

    • Isn't too small. A [500x500] image barely gives room to work with.
    • Isn't low in quality. Example of a "low quality" image.
    • Isn't uploaded to Facebook. You may try re-hosting the image to another site.
    • Is labeled NSFW if necessary (use this tag generously).
  3. Titles
    Your title must be descriptive. No more "this has potential" or "lets see what you guys can do". Some people browse reddit in compact mode(no thumbnails) so they need the titles to be descriptive not boring.

    • If the title sounds like a pic request it will be subject to removal.
    • If the title sounds cliched or unoriginal it will be subject to removal.
    • If the title is made as a question it will be subject to removal.
  4. Voting
    Please vote by quality. Lazy shops shouldn't win just because they made you laugh. You can still vote funny stuff (we can't control you) but keep in mind that people spend lots of time making some really good submissions and deserve as much recognition as the next guy. Downvoting constructively is also recommended. We like to play nice here so please keep that in mind. If you believe something is inappropriate please report it.

That's the hospital the Joker blew up, right?

[–]Mapes 15 points16 points ago

Yes it is!

[–]slackingzac 17 points18 points ago

The one in Aurora?

[–]flosofl 3 points4 points ago

The building that was blown up wasn't in Aurora. It was the old Brach's Candy building on the West Side.

Edit: Here's the raw vid of the explosion.

[–]ForgottenFork 3 points4 points ago

"CUT! One of the extras looked at the camera, we have to shoot it again."

Amazing

[–]PHOTOSHOP_EVERYTHING 151 points152 points ago

[–]wolfgame 48 points49 points ago

wh... why would you do such a thing??

[–]whoadave 75 points76 points ago

[–]Simbamatic 16 points17 points ago

Good eye dude, well played. Subtle and funny. I would've gone with "queen" Mercury though.

[–]whoadave 11 points12 points ago

Thanks! And fuck, you're so right. I updated the title to reflect your suggestion.

[–]MeshesAreConfusing 2 points3 points ago

What did you change?

[–]Scumbag_Dustin 3 points4 points ago

Look in the background. Whatever it is, it makes it look like he's wearing a crown.

[–]WolfNippleChips 6 points7 points ago

Looks a bit like the shadow of a labia

[–]o0tana0o 24 points25 points ago

interesting side note, he had a custom made vest portraying his' beloved fuzzies. see here: http://freddiemercury4ever.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/vest-with-6-cats.jpg?w=450

[–]rp927 2 points3 points ago

It took a lot longer than I thought to see this vest brought up on reddit.

[–]myrpou 0 points1 point ago

It's cause he doesnt have the moustache on the picture.

Two Freddy Mercurys, one Cat. http://imgur.com/vnaE0

[–]o0evillusion0o 80 points81 points ago

Hmm...I was under the impression he didn't like pussy.

[–]boredlike 48 points49 points ago

Freddie Mercury was only gay because he ran out of women to have sex with.

[–]MileHighBarfly 58 points59 points ago

He wasn't gay. He's been quoted as saying, "I'll go to bed with anything."

[–]emeaguiar 46 points47 points ago

And this picture proves it.

[–]robtheviking 5 points6 points ago

Especially any subsequent photoshops onward this thread

[–]guinnythemox 3 points4 points ago

i did not know this

[–]slackingzac 2 points3 points ago

The quote I heard was more along the lines of, "I'm doing everything with everyone."

[–]KarmicWalrus 5 points6 points ago

Someone get this man a medal!

[–]ironmanthing 78 points79 points ago

False: this picture contains three cool cats.

[–]jenus13 99 points100 points ago

[–]AlwaysAttackWithCake 10 points11 points ago

I don't feel like this picture needs to be edited.

[–]IKRyouMad 34 points35 points ago

I love slenderman.

[–]AnEpicPerson 2 points3 points ago

I wonder what the child would look like?

[–]LycaonMoon 0 points1 point ago

Why, it'd Jeff The Killer.

[–]Hi_Im_Brent 3 points4 points ago

Is Jeff now a verb?

[–]LycaonMoon -1 points0 points ago

No, it's a famous creepypasta character. He's behind "GO TO SLEEP", if that helps in identification.

[–]Anaphase 1 point2 points ago

What is it with this resurgence of Slenderman I've been seeing lately?

[–]lukel1127 1 point2 points ago

A game called Slender came out.

[–]WhipIash 16 points17 points ago

I'm surprised this picture didn't break reddit.

[–]ConstipatedNinja 11 points12 points ago

If there was a narwhal horn on him, this would be the quintessential reddit picture.

[–]Mapes 32 points33 points ago

[–]theonlyalterego 41 points42 points ago

[–]zzephyr 4 points5 points ago

needs a bacon shirt

[–]David_Jay 8 points9 points ago

It's like he knew about reddit before it existed.

[–]logantauranga 7 points8 points ago

[–]PapaLuigi121 4 points5 points ago

Even if he was gay... He still got the pussy. I'll see myself out.

[–]bboykimchi 3 points4 points ago

But.. he wasn't homosexual.

[–]PapaLuigi121 4 points5 points ago

He was Bi (Supposedly) but noone truly knows.

[–]The_Gares_Escape_Pla 5 points6 points ago

The "love of his life" was a woman.

[–]PapaLuigi121 0 points1 point ago

Quoted saying he'd "Go to bed with anything."

[–]megabits 3 points4 points ago

It looks a bit like Freddie is wearing a crown on his head, as if to be saying, "Behold! It is I, Freddie, king of the kitties!"

[–]DaisyDoodles 5 points6 points ago

*Queen of the Kitties.

[–]combatchuck 0 points1 point ago

Already photoshopped. Everybody knows he didn't touch pussies.

[–]BlackestNight21 3 points4 points ago

Yes he did. -.-

[–]thermal_shock -1 points0 points ago

and a onesie!

[–]gJonny 0 points1 point ago

Respect for Freddie Mercury +5

You have... Broke the karma meter

[–]zombiebunnie -1 points0 points ago

In otherwords, TO THE FRONTPAGE WITH YOU SIR.

[–]liberalis 1 point2 points ago

Add another cat. Three Cat Mercury. Maybe with the Sun off to a side for scale.

[–]stenzor 0 points1 point ago

Freddie Mercury: still knows how to get karma years after his death

[–]imaceac 1 point2 points ago

Insert " those pussies are safe" comment here

[–]PrancinBranson -1 points0 points ago

[–]Naked_Bongos -2 points-1 points ago

I thought he hated pussy!
