i still don't understand what you guys were trying to do?

PMC = Photomanipulation Challenge
These are contests where we use Photoshop (or some other quality image editor) to alter pictures a certain way. They follow themes in the same way the SOTW contests do, but they're more for showing off what you can do in Photoshop on a real picture instead of a sig. They're not restricted contests. Anyone can enter. They also help in building up your PS skills because you get more practice with things you don't necessarily use in sigs.
For instance, in one of our earlier contests, the theme was invisibility. We had to remove people from a picture, but we were to leave their clothes floating where they were. In our last contest, the theme was to make some sort of transportation. Some entries were hover cars, a super boat and a jetpack.
In this contest, the theme was to make videogame characters come to life. It was to use pictures of things in the real world and combine them to make real life videogame characters or scenes as you think they'd look in the real world.
For the next one, I'm thinking about keeping the theme similar but instead of videogames, the focus will be on superheroes from comic books. That way you could make superheroes that you think would look cool in real life.
