Last week we celebrated the launch of PhotoDune, Envato’s new stock photography marketplace with a series of photo effect, photo manipulation, and photo montage tutorials. Now that Photo Effects Week has come to an end, we wanted to give you the opportunity to put your newly learned skills to the test with a Photo Manipulation Competition that is open to all Psdtuts+ readers.
Your task is to use at least one of the three images below to create a photo manipulation. You are free to combine these images with assets available on the web or in your personal collection. We will judge your entries based on their creativity, execution, and by how many of the below images that you use.

We will select 3 winners for this competition.
- 1st Place will win $100 in PhotoDune Credits and a 1-year premium membership to Tuts+.
- 2nd Place will win $75 in PhotoDune Credits.
- 3rd Place will receive an Envato t-shirt.

Hey guys, this competition is open to everyone no matter where you live.
Awesome contest. I’ll have to find something more creative than a hamster destroying a city though. I have a feeling that’s going to be a common theme.
Already submitted!
Any Deadline for this ?
Why don´t you READ the brief. The whole brief before you ask questions.
Just entered. I hope they go for creativity over technical achievement
I have very basic PSD skills but I had fun creating my entry!
Thanks guys!
