Cool manipulation author... GL author! X-rated LOL : D got high marks from me author!

wow!

LOL Chappy. Fine job Author

Your task is to take any image depicting and elderly man or woman and make them look younger. Show before and after images. I don't see before and after here...

maybe you should lose the shades (h)

I think youre being too picky there CMYK. That hair, goatee and crowsfeet are hardly things you'd see on a newborn! But the forehead, nose and cheeks are young... To be pedantic you are probably correct but I think its within the 'spirit' of the contest - and I like it!

I hear you CMYK46, the rules state to make an old man/women look younger not the opposite, though it is really a great entry, it is a shame not to have it both ways. Any way, good luck author, wonderful work of Art!

I think it's a little off theme.

OHHHH! This is just WRONG! And ouch......that mustache has GOT to hurt!!! But a very funny image!

thanks for all the comments i guess a few do not get the "youth fountain" i have tried to make with this image

Hahah!Great idea!

author, if what you are saying is that what you have done is taken this gross ghastly old man, and made him look young, then essentially you are depicting that he is still 60 or 70 something, therefore this image is pornographic, and is uncalled for on this site. if this was really just a baby, it would be ok. but if you ask me, i dont think any of us want to see this old man suck on someones boob, no matter how young they look. on the other hand, if this is a baby you took and make look older, that wouldnt be so pornographic, but it would still not follow the guidelines, as we need (cont...)

as we need to take the image of an young person and make them look old. so this would actually be inappropriate either way. doesn't fit the guidelines, and if it did, would be inappropriate for this site. anyway, if what im trying to say is that if this WAS following the guidelines, then what you have here is a 60 or 70 something OLD man sucking on a woman's breast. i think that would be inappropriate for something on here, unless its like distasteful video®, or some wrong episode of penthouse.

thanks bddesign glad you like it

OK I have to agree with Ray on this one. Bd if you think this is porn and belongs in Penthouse rag you have lead a very protected life. Although your novel is nice, I see a young and old, also find it humorous. good luck Author

Ok... this is not porn! Even with the sparkle in the eye! lol... I looked at high res... banish my soul! This is what Ichappell looked like as a baby... Hope this is a top entry and posted on website homepage... lol!?

lol

I don't really think this is pornographic either but the theme was to take someone old and make them look like what they might have looked like when they were young. So....... I guess I agree with CMYK.

people, people, people...............this is a fun site too, and this image is great............lighten up a little, and enjoy it!

i happen to think is wrong in so many levels an off theme. so many good entries have been removed before on other contests by being a bit off theme...i am on the fence on this one

ok,
in an effort to help some people understand what is plain to see in this entry, i will try to say why this entry is ON theme, as i cannot see any reason that it is off theme.

Goal:

In their later years, people often look back and think about how they looked years before.
Your task is to take any image depicting and elderly man or woman and make them look younger.
Show before and after images.
( suggested by: ponti55 )

ok, lets look at the goal, line by line
1: In their later years, people often look back and think about how they looked years before.
i have added a twinkle to his eye to help with the fact that this is a thought process
2: Your task is to take any image depicting and elderly man or woman
i have used the elderly pic of lchappell

3: and make them look younger
i have made this old guy look younger, very young in fact
4: Show before and after images.
i have a before and after image there
now, for little added flavor, i have also used the contest name in my design, if you think about it this image does follow the "youth fountain" name very well.
so, maybe one of you would care to show me your reasons this entry is off theme so i can fix it
thx

well, i'll give it a go... i don't think the object was to make a play of words and image. it is a very straightforward goal to pretty much give an older person a "photoshop cosmetic surgery", to recreate how the person would have looked younger, not as a baby. i believe that was another contest. besides that, i don't think the person on your original image had a beard and grey hair as a baby, maybe if the baby looked like the man as an infant people would not have a problem with the entry. hope this clarifies it, at least from my perspective.

well, lchappell is an American legend, and everyone knows he was born with his beard

bleah XD

I really like this design, and dont think its off the theme. I beieve the author shows an old man getting younger by drinking from a fountain which happens to be breast milk. The author took to the theme and added a sense of humor spin.

)) good work author, gl

hahahhahhahhahahhah

funny

either way, 31 comments. Life is tough as an artist ... creative works are open to interp. a side note: from a movie can not remember the name. An artist painted a picture. the picture was of a Woman half naked in her bedroom, man looks on . A viewer of the painting scorned the work. stated it was PORN. A young woman in a state of undress in front of an old man.. she was just horrified by the work. She was then approached by the artist. She put forward her opinion of the works. The artist then said. MADAM, this is a picture of a married couple. ( see next posting for continued story)

it is their wedding Anvers.. and they are getting ready to go out for dinner. The man is waiting for his wife . In the end the artist asked the woman to leave after the artist stated in a very good way his opinion. Art can be strange ,different and open to so many opinions. GOOD LUCK AUTHOR>

very nice

CMYK is often jelous when he see some good and original art... Don't mind him he sometimes gives good advice (but only sometimes)... Lots of images that are winning, have nothing to do with theme, thats why i dont do contests anymore Ur idea is original and i like it, blend little more old skin on baby's face and it will be perfect l

nice work on the face quite natural -- A bit of work on the neck would finish this nicely

Thnx for pointing that out Alan - I did a small amount of work on her neck now - hope its better!

nice result overall, very well done. however something is wrong with or around the eyes. They look like they are too small but I believe what is missing is some sort of shadow below the eyes. It looks flat now

I added some shadowing with the burn tool under the eyes

Nice job, author...if you try and use channel mixer...you can swap out the data of the channel causing that modled artifact look....with a channel that has better smooth shape. Just a thought. Try it!

Very nice work !!

There's something still with the eye on the right that doesn't look correct like cock-eyed a little or smaller than the other but looking at your original I see it's about the same. Good blend on the face.

make eyes bigger!

you removed too much from the eyes.. they look kinda freaky now. (i can't stress that enough)

think you worked too muh on the eyes, but a nice image overall.gl

Kind of dissapointing, been busy and when I finally got the chance to fix the eyes the deadline was over now I can't edit my submission

need more work

dont worry about running out of time author it happens to the rest of us. You did a good job with your entry. just take on board the feedback and use it on your next entry..

It's still one of the better entries, even without the edits to the eyes. GL.

very nice

Her nose still looks old and her bottom lip looks too thin compared to the top. I suggest working on shrinking the nose and fixing the lip and you'll have a great entry.

gud work

i agree with the bottom lip. good job over all on your image.

Nice job, author!

very nice

my compliments!

very good

Very beautiful and well done!

This is one of the better ones I've seen. Not a significant age difference but maybe that's the key to this contest.

adjust the neck color

good work,gl

looks wierd.....her chin

gr8 work ..gl author

I agree , one of the better entries in this comp. Compliments to you author. GL

great

Creepy! dont like dolls, nice blend tho.

No offence. But that doesn't look exactly like a baby.

It seems you made her more into a cabbage patch doll than a baby. I would work on the eyes. They seem a little too big.

Lol - it's Bratz!!

I can see how this would fit a doll face contest and I agree Sparken you do come off a little rude. But if you have used this in another contest, don't you think that it shows.. well... lack of effort. Why not just come up with something new, rather than recycle something you did before?

This entry needs to be redone...get rid of the gabbage patch re-entry thing... and just redo...it's not rude it's just come on.... read the rules...

woodztockr...i will comment that your entry isnt very good, and we will see if you think thats being rude? And yes, i have read the rules.....its all legal!
Please dont lecture me about lack of effort....ive spent thousands of hours and made over 300 original entries at PST and PXLeyes in the last 3 years.
And i find it unusual that you single this entry out and say nothing to the other entry in this comp, that had been used before as well.

So this entry received second place on Pxleeyes already... and you can add a face above it for this compettion and say it's all good...Throw the BS flag out... sorry author your work is great but this is just a repeat... and yes much work probably done originally on work but this is a cut and paste... as they say, "Busted!" I red flagged not once but twice... lol... just like this entry!

great blending!! I had always liked this one

Ok after review of the rules... "DON'T use someone elses entry from an old contest. You may use one of your old entries in a new contest (not a sequel contest), although new entries will always be better appreciated." I guess this is good.... so much for creativity... great job author!

good job,gl

nice blend..looks like a dool

good luck author. your not the first and i bet not the last to recycle PST entries. One can see MANY PST re-entries.THis is a cute, great blend on the eyes.

So you're saying because you have made sooooooooo many entries that your done? Personally author, you're way too defensive and I'm sure you think you're way ahead of your game but.... ya... Perhaps step back and keep an open mind to as where people are comming from.

jawshoewhah......You and others are the ones making assumptions that i create work with lack of effort.....i was merely pointing out that this isnt the case and if you didnt make silly accusations, like that i think i am way ahead of my game, then i would have no need to be defensive. Maybe you should sit back and try to make constructive, not destructive, comments.

Like I said: Very Defensive.

Lots of people have criticized my works in the past without me being defensive.......because they use constructive criticism! Why cant you think positive instead of giving negative remarks like that last comment?

very nice

Ahaha interestin and original gl
