mutedlogic, thats a cool picture, i saw something very similar to that in a big graphic design book in my school’s library but instead of chalk outlines, it was a junkyard full of demolished cars with little +'s telling something about each car.

I’m much more of a photorealist person so I’ll have a different style than all of you. Anyway, this is a little under 1hr, during my lunch @ work.

Edit: Got bored so I remixed it for fun.  
 ![](http://www.beyondthepixel.com/images/lap_remix.jpg)

Called “Laughing At The Pain” cause that’s the title of part of the poem that was put in there.

Also the boy is from the new Exorcist movie.

The poem isn’t meant to be read completely but here is the excerpt from it:

The dark before the moonlight,has my eyes caught in a daze,  
it’s like a love without the passion,it’s an urge without the craze,  
the feeling of couragesness brings all time to a standstill,  
it’s a feel without the feeling, it’s a death without the kill,  
Can I break these chains of an open book that binds me?

That’s why it’s a photomanipulation I followed the rules… or lack there of

No one said the whole image had to be maintained.

Great work. I really like the overlayed pattern. I didn’t know there was a new exorcist movie out. When did it come out? The Exorcist is my favorite book, therefore my name. The original movie is amazing as well. I’ll keep a lookout for the new one.

Ethan,  
nice volley there man, I like the border. Just a question on the text, is it supposed to make sense?

Not trying to be a grinch, but Death is Life doesn’t make sense. Don’t want to be mean, just curious

actually in retrospect I think its much like current HP ads, which I really had no thought in emulating…this just came from a simple pattern I started with and tried to apply it throughout the work

Grinchy Poo, Death is a part of life as some day you will die. It is meant to make you think and consider.

As for the name at the bottom. Sushisource spelled my name wrong in another battle, so I think my new battle name is EatHam.

Nice vollies everyone.

P.S. The original battle Image size says 600x400. Seems like everyone has a different sized image?

600x400 is silly, the original image is a multiple of it so I don’t think it’s that big of an issue.

The size limit was meant to _LIMIT_ people so no-one could make a 1024 x 768 picture with loads of stuff in it that everyone would vote for. The small size was part of the challenge. To see how well you used the space. But I guess now, short of asking everyone to change the size of their pics, I’ll just have to let it go. If anyone’s image is larger than 600 x 400 they are disqualified from the poll!:upset: J/king.😛

Anyway nice work ppl.:hugegrin: Especially to Ethan and Simplistik, I love how you went in a completely different direction Sim, not just using the trees. Great work from everyone though. This has turned out to be a great battle and I think their are more entrants. Aren’t there?:h:

I changed the size, to be nice… 🙂

Just can see so much detail but it’s okay, like I said 600x400 was a multiple of the original size so doesn’t really hurt much (except detail) 🙂
