06-10-09 – Tilt-Shift Faked Miniature Scenes

Ill have to start playing in PS more now. Great theme, but too bad there is such a time difference for me, means I’m alwas late to the party! 🙂

I don’t know if it would matter, but if you’re TotalFark, you can post images four hours earlier.

Thanks! I’ll have to stay up late and watch and see when the next contest his the main page. if it is way too late I just may have to TF it up =)

Time difference?

How about posting my entries after 9:00 AM on Thursday? I have been posting my entries during a break we have in class, so I generally post them at about 9:55AM my time(which is 55 minutes after the contest posts to Totalfark).

I’m in Istanbul, so there is a rather large time difference. When I woke up at 7am, there were near 100 entries already 🙂

It’s always the same time every week. The contest opens for TotalFark at 8pm US Eastern time, and then hits the front page 4 hours later. So it looks like that comes out to 3am and 7am your time. Voting doesn”t open up, however, until 7am your time, and I know many people wait until the non-TFers have had a chance to post before voting. A lot of voting will also happen starting about 12 hours from now, when the East Coast office workers start filing in to work.

Uhhh… I don’t want to jinx it, and it’s way too early to call, but 40+ votes after 3 hours?! bucky_bacon, you are on course to break some records this week!

Well… I’m certainly in no position to speak about that this early, other than to say that I’m pretty excited at where things are at this point. But there are two days to go! All of the others that I wanted to mention last night are right up there too, and all very formidable.

Whoever comes out on top of this one is going to have a nice number, but I’ll be the first to admit that it’s a product of a great contest. I completely expected a one-hit wonder to pop up and run away with this one. There is a nice number of boobies, though!

I think all of the votes that we were looking for last week may have been saving up for this week.

Interesting – apparrently people were quite interested in comparing a modified photo to the original. Usually my flickr viewing stats show a bit of a spike on Thursdays from contest viewers, but this week it’s huge, and most of them were from people clicking the link to the unmodded original version of my photo. I thought that seemed like a natural thing to add to the post, but it looks like almost no one else decided to do it.
