Well, that's it. Dodgeball has finally gone to the dogs. You knew it would happen eventually. Man's best friend has invaded and taken over our beloved side contest! Your mission this week:

Choose one of the two photographs below and chop it to your heart's content:





I realize this is a little bit of a detour from the themed Dodgeball contests we usually have, but in the vein of the Moose-chop and the Elvis-Bravewoman-chops from last week, I thought we could try something different this week.

You can take either one of these pics (or both!) and change them up however you like. What is that dog in the ocean chasing? Or what is chasing him? It is a dog eat dog world out there, after all. What is really in that dog's food dish? What crazed cow might be in the background ready to pounce on the cute little doggie? Or remove the dog totally and place him in a different background, it's all up to you.

Make us laugh, make us shudder, dog my cats, whatever...just show us your best dog and pony show. Keep your chops to 600 pixels wide or less and have them in by 11:59 PM CST Wednesday, August 22, 2007. Voting will take place on Thursday the 23rd until midnight central, winner will be announced Friday. The Dodgeball champion will become the new top dog! (I just hope this contest doesn't put me in the doghouse.)

This is my first dodgeball entry... and an obvious one of course...



The ladybug is from a French series of animated shorts called "Minuscule". Really funny!

Welcome, Skek! Glad to have ya. FYI I just wanted to say that you don't have to MIX the two pictures together in some way, although you can if you like. I just didn't feel like limiting it to one source pic. Thanks now back to your regularly scheduled program.

Thanks! I just took a cue from the first pic posted, but the first thing I thought of when seeing the two pictures was something weird coming out of the dog bowl... should have done a great white...

Sorry about the resolution, folks... I must say, adding a fake end to that wet dog took some doing.

And virtually none of the acid-reflux that goes on over in the shirt derby!

I hope next week's Derby theme is "Puppies".

What's up with the pouty face that shows up each week?

I think the key is the selection of images- one large dog and one small one (the size of the dog relative to the overall frame size). This really allows you to go in either direction (adding large to small or vice versa).

This is fun!

That's funny, when I saw gwp's entry with the skiing guy on the dog's head, it reminded me of Falcor.

That is exactly what got me thinking of neverending story as well.

well...too blurry, I think. look at the other shadows on the bowl. more clearly defined edges, much shorter feathering range.
