A few days ago, a thread popped up in this forum with some pictures of Monkey Island characters crossing over into other media. The pictures were great, but they were buried in a terrible thread and I think they need a proper home.
But here's where it gets interesting. I will take entries for a week or so. Then, I will have people in the office vote on their favorite edits. The winners will get something. What are the prizes, and how many will be awarded? I'll figure that part out later. Whatever it is, it's probably coming out of my own wallet. Exciting! Some possibilities, depending on what I wind up getting away with:
1) I will use your image as my forum avatar or signature or something.
2) Coupons for the Telltale Store?
3) I (or other random people) might sign something and send it to you. (approximate value $0 ).
4) ???
Post your entries in this thread. Good luck!
Disclaimer: This is not an official contest. Nothing I've said here is binding in any way you or a team of lawyers could dream up.
The thread will be closed to new contest entries 10 AM PST on July 13th as my coworkers and I hold a super top-secret vote. I'll announce the winners and their prizes a day or two after.
You can continue posting images after the contest closes if you fancy.
***** Contest is now closed. Results will be announced in a day or so. *****
I haven't forgotten about you guys! I'm busy programming a program right now, but the web team has stepped up to help out with the contest. Stay tuned!

WINNERS HAVE BEEN ANNOUNCED!

Woot!! Here are mine so far
This is the one I did in the other thread.
Here are my contributions. Added the ones I made at a later time.
Update: My server is experiencing technical difficulties at the moment, therefore these images will not be loading. Sorry for the inconvenience. Re-updated: Moved them to a public domain, server is semi-toast >.>
I did a few of these
the last one being my favorite
This has been a lot of fun
Meet Masterbrush Chiefwood.
Inspired by Yare's Langley's image in the other thread.
That being said, I gonna go back playing my favorite mmorpg.
The original image I posted was done by another engineer, one Mr. Langley. Credit where credit is due!
I have strikethrough'd the credit away from you, with extreme prejudice.
Just try not to puke from his cuteness
**OLD VERSION for posterity***
Pirates of the...eehm..Monkey Island <.<
I would buy this.
Edit: That LBP doll is frigging awesome!
Okay muchos gracias for the lightning fast reply ^.^
No kidding how awesome would it be to have MI costumes for LBP? But I suppose since neither new MI are going on PS3 the chances of that are pretty slim oh well.
It also makes me wish a pro would pick up the idea and make it into a full-size movie poster! Maybe it'd actually look fairly awesome hanging from my wall. Or above the toilet. Or in the dining room. Or anywhere. 60/70s movie posters rock. Particularly from Kubrick ones. Hey, anybody willing to do a Clockwork Orange thing?
Ahahah! Please anybody send this to Tim Schafer like immediately. Metal up my ass!
Please ignore the previous version LOL
@irishmile: loving all of the cutsiness, not a fan of the Brutal parody
@katsuro: I love Elaine's new look, definitely should be a consideration for the next iteration of MI games. I'm all for scantily clad Elaine. Two big thumbs up here.
@TTG_Yare: This thread is amazing, keep it up even after the "contest"
I'd still like to edit this one a little maybe, anybody know a free tool that leds you bend and deform pictures?
I had many ideas for this like LeChuck spewing blood and reworking the Metal Slug text to say Monkey Slug but I'm far too lazy so you will just have to deal with this:
I also worked more on Herman than Gubyrush because that was the first thing I started doing before I started getting bored... I have quite a short attention span
YOU DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY HAVE PERMISSION TO POST THIS ON YOUR SITE! ALWAYS ASK FIRST!
Fav.
("Brutal Monkey" above for a close second.)
oh, come on, you can do one more
I want these. And not just a little bit.
Most people will use the magnetic lasso and/or magic wand tools. It's surprisingly simple with layers and masking et cetera.
Of course, I only used tiny pixels so I just zoomed in and edited pixel by pixel for mine XD
