The addict needs a shave and a haircut after being away for as long as he has. Take him to your nearest barbershop to get clipped. The MUST be a barberpole in the picture in order to qualify.
There weren't many entries last week, but there are still 3 weeks left including this week, so get your entry in. The pot is sweetening!! I have 2 more prizes now to give away, and I'll give you a hint...they're electronic!!
Print the picture attached in the PDF document and take it with you to the site. You AND The Addict need to be in the picture, although we do not need you to show your face in the picture if you do not desire. Pictures will be judged on creativity with 3 Points going to 1st place, 2 Points going to second place, and 1 Point going to 3rd place.
Make it funny, make it sad, make it happy, make it mad; just keep it clean boys and girls, that’s all we ask. Post your picture in a reply to this thread to enter.
Remember, 1 entry per person and submissions will close Thursday, October 20 at 11:59pm.

Good luck!! :cheers:

You said that last time, and although it was an entry, and you have a 50/50 chance of winning that week, it was a pretty bland picture. Be creative.

You can not digitally alter the addict - no photoshop. If you want to get out your crayolas...be my guest.

I think I've seen one... way down town in the jewish area. All the barbers I have gone to have never had them. I always thought it was a thing for the movies..
I have decided to participate.. but instead of following the rules.. I'm going to do an idea that came into my head. A short film. Hope to have it done by Sunday.

like, barbershops never have those poles anymore. there's one here in morristown but it's inside the building and i'm scared of the old guys inside.

If we can't find a barberpole can we make one out of something and set it in the barber shop when we take a picture?

Yes, that was the entire point. It may not be relevant at all.. but I made a piece of art and I demand that it be noticed by all.

Good, the base is growing. Part 2 will be a wide release.
I originally had credits in it, but for some reason adobe would freeze the credits half way through.
What should part 2 be about? I hired Jermy to write me something, but he is a loser.

Well, a pretty poor effort by all involved, I must say. The only reason why the contest is still open is because I failed to say that you needed to be at a barbershop. This is way more aggrevation than it's worth, but meh...
