Why does Clark get to have all the fun?

Ok, this will need a little background info so that y'all don't think I'm completely crazy :)

Last night I was on AIM with tresca, and we were discussing, among other things, who sucked more at photo manips and graphics in general. She showed me some of her work (including an awfully disturbing Bitney manip *shudder*), but really, they weren't half bad. Funny, maybe, but not bad :) So we came up with the "Suck At Graphics" award, and her first challenge to me was: Lex... with bunny slippers, a feather boa, a wet suit, and a tiara.

So see, it's all tresca's fault :)




You don't have to tell me it's bad... I already know. Besides, that was the point, wasn't it? :)

I wanted to put him in the castle, but I didn't find a nice image to use as background. Plus, his head's a little big, and the tiara's crooked (but you can just imagine that it's because it keeps slipping). It's actually a really pretty tiara, but it doesn't really stand out on Lex's head... Oh well. At least the 'dillo's there *g*


So, tresca said the prize was Lex. I want him. Now. Preferably in that outfit :) And now it's tresca's turn. Can't wait to see what she comes up with ;)

Extracted from AIM:

tresca: Poor Lex. I am *so* mean to him.
maricats: Hey, how do you know he wouldn't like it??
tresca: You're absolutely right! I don't! Maybe Clark likes it too...
maricats: Get him out of his routine... Make his life a little more interesting. What's the good of having money if you can't be, um, eccentric?
tresca: Oh yes! I forgot! He's the eccentric old man in the castle!
maricats: Little kids will make bets on who has the guts to knock on his door... They'll TP his castle...
tresca: And spread stories about his hump.
maricats: See? We're just giving him a hand... Giving the kids something to talk about.
maricats: We're mean :)

Dude! I wanna play!

I can be mean to Lex, too! :)

I'm pretty sure none of you are as mean as me - The result of a hideous meteor rock induced merging of Lex and Lana. (http://uk.photos.yahoo.com/bc/elvichar/vwp?.dir=/&.src=ph&.dnm=lexlang.jpg&.view=t&.done=http%3a//uk.photos.yahoo.com/bc/elvichar/lst%3f%26.dir=/%26.src=ph%26.view=t)

Now that is just... *wrong*. Poor Lex... I wonder if that's what their kids would look like??

Should I consider this a submission to the "Suck At Graphics" award? ;)

[elethe.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It took a lot of hard work - but I will be the first to admit it sucks in oh so many ways.

[maricats.livejournal.com]

It doesn't have to suck to be nominated for the award! It just has to have, um, *interesting* results ;) I didn't mean that it sucked, really. It doesn't!

We really have to change the title of the award... ;)

May I suggest the 'Why - Dear God Why?' Award.

[maricats.livejournal.com]

Good name! I see it's already being used :) You should check out tresca's entries. Fun fun fun!

Play! Play! The more the merrier :)

Hey, if we get enough submissions, maybe we could put up a website! Complete with really bad design (or at the very least tacky). We just have think of a cool name... "Dress Up Lex Luthor" is the only thing that I can think of, and I have a feeling that this will be anything *but* DULL. Hee :)
