Before this turns into a full on debate about photography and photoshopping, can I just suggest one thing:

There will be a vote / pole at the end of each month - if an image is heavily photoshopped, and therefore not to your particular taste - dont vote for it. If enough people feel this way, then a heavily photoshopped image wont win will it? Equally, this works the other way around.

Seems all the fun is being sapped before we begin gentlemen  :huh: I only wanted to play along to learn a little about photography and enjoy looking at our cars.

I mainly use PS to sharpen up images, I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

Is anyone going to post a picture?  :grin:

All digital images need sharpening post camera as they are soft due to something horribly technical I'm not going to go into. Compacts sharpen stuffbefore commiting it to the card whereas DSLRS let you set the level of sharpening in the camera or you do it in PS afterwards.

And yes someone needs to post a pic.

Stronz: Spot on fella.

Think of things that spring conjours up in your mind. Bunnies (not playboy ones!), hot cross buns, spring flowers, blossom on trees etc etc.

As i suggested this idea and it seems to be in action would like to put my view across that it would be better if no photoshop used so no advantage to anyone.....works best on other forums :D
