    @Gerbick! Remember the good ol' days of battling here?

    I think the last time I battled here was when we had the Ultrashock VS Flash Kit Rivalry. That was in 2003. I remember doing a few battles afterwards with DQS, and later starting my own community called Komprehend to continue the love for photoshop battles.

    I really miss those days.

    Do we have enough of the old photoshop warriors around to see if we can stir something up again or am I beating a dead horse?

    Wow, talk about old memories. Yep... miss those days too. That was a time I was deadlocked in IT and yearning to use my Photoshop skills. Hell, I was a n00b compared to a lot of you guys. Regardless, I had fun.

    Stirring up something? Hell, even I've let a couple of battles - one of them was halfway done before we announced it - let slip and die. Can this place be revived? Lord knows.

    But if so, hell yes. If not, it was great. Let's see.

    Ha, Gerbs! I lova ya!

    I completely forgot how these things work. I might have to dig into some old threads to get a refresher. Crazy to think that we were battling when some of the folks now on this forum were just babies.

    I am already feeling old, no need to make it worse with that "just babies" comment.

    Hmm, if it were a team battle, we'd need more people than just you and I. Given how dead this area has gotten, I'd doubt that would happen and folks stay committed. If it's just one on one, you should remember how those start. Original image, a toss up to who starts first, keep at least an element of the original image incorporated into your image, a lot of trash talking and a standard size and a myriad of cool stuff within those size limits. Rotation allowed is optional.

    Or something like that. Starting to forget things in my old age.

    Ok, let's try this. We can do 3 Volleys.

    First, I found some wonderful stock art from the Deviant Art community. Let's narrow down a choice between these images:

    http://www.deviantart.com/art/stock-80-180941578
    http://www.deviantart.com/art/backside-314073090
    http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/...rl-2-442766409
    http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/...S-14-117082562
    http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/...or-23-77829065
    http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/...ker-6-66221177
    http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/...-S-1-116980303

    Unless you see any that are not on the list. Which one do you think we should go with? I was thinking Movie Poster battle. Oh, and we need some ridiculous reference to the old days.

    I think it my behoove us to post our battle in another community as well.

    I don't know. So far over 80 people looked at this thread. Let's see if anyone wants to jump on board with us old farts, and tango.

    3 might be a little much. I always loved teams because I only had to do one.

    If we can't start a battle, let's at least post some of the old images from battles way back in the day if you still got them. It would be great to see some old work from you guys.

    Always had fun and, mostly, learned LOTS from you guys in the few battles/contests I was in. I'm game...

    I learned a lot of photoshop tricks from battles in here back in the day.
