maristuOk, 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![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
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 :)

on 2002-10-11 07:44 am (UTC)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 :)
