RULES

  • Photoshop or other graphics programs may only be used to crop, resize, adjust brightness, contrast or gamma, rotate, add a border or small signature, or to remove the "Gran Turismo/©SCEI" watermark.

  • If you don't have Photoshop or other professional image management software, try a shareware one such as IrfanView or GIMP.
  • Photoshop or other graphics programs may NOT be used to change levels, hue, saturation, sharpen, apply filters or otherwise manipulate the image in any form.
  • When using brightness and/or contrast filters to alter an entry, it must be uniform throughout the entire picture.

Photoshop adjustments, tools, and filters list:
  • Crop

  • Brightness/Contrast
  • Hue/Saturation
  • Blur filters

  • Sharpen filters
  • Tools:

[Note:No plug-ins for any of the above adjustments or filters are to be used]
You can use layers for overlay and layer adjustments, but not to alter the geometry and original subject matter of the picture: like adding stickers and body kits, and objects that are not in the original image.

This tournament is a knockout competition. You will be given a random theme (provided from this thread), and will then be randomly matched with another user from the same category. Within a 3-5 day period you are to submit your final entry via PM (jacoja07). A poll will take place in the remaining 2-4 days of the week, where all duels will be voted for.


The competition will progress through four stages as so:

Both categories will run seperately, untill we have found winners for each.

If there is anything unclear, or if there's something I've missed... do comment 👍
