=== Gimp Challenge I:  due date: July 8 ===
Now that we all are skilled in the art of "The Gimp", Chris, Kevin and I thought we should have some fun with it.  The challenge is to pick your favorite two hated (or loved?) celebrites and Gimp together an image depicting a Celebrity Boxing style match. Who will it be? Gates vs Linus, Bush vs Clinton, Steve Fox vs The Gimp Circle Method?  Start with one of the images suggested on the [[GimpChallenge]] Page or find/create your own. Images should be posted in gimp format (so we can see your tricks and techniques) and png format (cause we are lazy). Images are due July 8th so judging can occur prior to our meeting July 13th.


If you need an account to the wiki so you can post your picture, please send an email to the list.  Include the user name you wish to have.
