Okay! Thanks to my spending more time practicing groveling than Photoshoppery, I have (dishonestly) won Photoshop Valley Contest #67. The theme #68 is... TOOLS!

I want to see great tools or appliances that should exist that don't. For example, a combination litter-box / lawn-mower. (It's a mess to clean, but you only have to clean it once.) Or a fire-hose hooked up to a tub of Anal-Ease... (for when you're too passionate to bother to look for precicely the right orifice). Or nails with pictures of Michael Jackson on them (to make them more fun to hit).

Judging in two-weeks-ish, that being sometime on, before, or after Feb. 20th. Now... ready, set, WASTE TIME!

And then I have to go and put a typo in the forum title. Someone make a tool I can shoot myself in the head with.

Two typos actually, the second is my fault. I forgot to name my competition, so this is actually competition #69.. :(

Here's one little appliance I bet everyone's wished they'd had once in their lifetime!

Heh heh, my invention is sort of your litter box lawn mower in reverse

heh heh. hmm.

A breakthrough in miniaturization has lead to new treatments for the removal of tumors in your colon! Shown here against the background of a Bounty paper towel is Suzy H-69, a new tool for removing those dangerous growths.

Not alot of entries so far so I'll give it ago.

A red x is better than nothing.

Wait, no it's not.

I don't know what you're crying about, I can see all three clearly.

The Shoe-Brellas are cool!

I see them all clearly -- and really, that's all that matters.

With only 9 days left in the contest, I want to see some more people wasting time! C'mon, where're my entries?

I didn't follow the rules really, but I was inspired. So flame me.

I want to know who not_scycess is.

I'm planning on entering, but with such an outrageously long contest period, I don't feel the rush of a deadline.

I WANT ONE!

Wow... I almost forgot about this thing. Since image manipulation takes longer than making a comic, I thought I'd give everyone a nice long time... but it seems like almost all the entries were done within a few days of the contest, anyway.

So I have to declare a winner. Although the dildo-alarm was good (I have one myself), I have to give it to Kaddar because, well, because I liked his entry best. (The E-Z Bake Kitty was the clincher.)

And remember... for some reason, we did a number twice, so the next contest is #70, not #69. (It is a shame to skip 69, though... especially on this site.)
