WINNERS!!!Destructoid Contest: Win the new Simpsons game! photo

I apologize for the late announcement on this one, guys -- I've been working on some very special surprises for everyone for December and I completely forgot. Soon enough you'll find out much more about that, but for now, the winners are: 

PACO DG - Jabba Ron

ENYNE - How Many Rons?

Congrats to both of you and thanks everyone for participating!  

The only thing that's better than giving people free video games is dancing to El Mudo in the nude in a McDonald's parking lot, but since the latter's likely to get us arrested, we just do the former as much as possible to make up for it. This time we're giving away two copies of the new Simpsons game from EA, one for 360 and one for the Wii for your analog stick-twiddling pleasure (or Mote-waving, if you will.)

What's the way to win? Well, you know how much we love Photoshop based contests, mostly because we like to laugh at ourselves in the most ridiculous positions the community can imagine us in. The challenge this time is to Photoshop Ron "Look, I drink" Workman, our infamous Community Manager, into a Simpsons screenshot (whether it be from the show or a game) in the most innovative way you can dream up. You have until November 14th to get your image posted. Go! Go! Go!

ITS A ME, WHINEY GUY!

Seriously, more photoshop contests? Look, I love photoshops, shooped das woopen is all good as far as Im concerned, except for one thing.
I cant fucking photoshop worth shit.

I have no visual artistic skill or talent. I cant even cut someones head off in MS Paint and stick that on something. Thats how much I fail, also in before FAIL pics.

So as awesome as many community members are at shooping, and as much as I love them, I just wish there was more variety in these contests than picture editing, because I have no chance of winning anything.
</rant>

However, I cant wait to see what sort of fucked up debauchery somebody can shoop Ron into

Ron add me as a MySpace friend so I can access your hawt photos and begin the shoppery.

vbo

It is possible to win with no shooping skills. It's done all the time.

And anyone that bitches about not having photoshop, get GIMP fer fucks sake. It's free.

Or stop lying about not owning it and use that copy you stole from the internet for gawds sake, that's why you downloaded an illegal copy, wasn't it?

@King3vbo
Just download paint.net already. It's what I use. It has multi-layering, effects, easy import options, magic wand so you don't have to clip out heads pixel by pixel, rumble feature, and bag of chips.

Do it!

Why the Sony discrimination, DTOID? I would try my hand at this, but I don’t have a Wii or a 360 — just a PS3 — and so this contest’s prizes are useless to me. Best of luck to everyone else, though.

Hmm, now it looks like a warped children's show (with questionable guest host!)

Apparently you can win with no shooping skills. As you can see, I have very little, but I figured it's worth a try. I want this game!

I have to agree with king3vbo, I have no Photoshop talent beyond adding funny captions to images, so it'd be nice to have a little more variety in the contests.

Here is my attempt =) I hand drew Ron and colored it in Photoshop and put it in a family picture with the rest of the Simpsons. Enjoy!
