This past week brought exciting news that Picnik (basically a simplified Photoshop on the web but approximately 1000 times easier to use) was just acquired by Google. And what sounds like more fun on this Friday than combining a Picnik and the Moon?
CONTEST!
In addition, I have some prizes here in the office that I would love to give away to you all, and it's been too long since our last contest. So here it is:
- Go to Picnik.com
- Click "Upload" to edit a Moon (or space) -related photo (no registration required!)
- Unleash your creativity upon the photo. Colorize, crop, create something artistic and abstract, and then...
- Click the "Save and Share" button. You can post it to Twitter, Facebook, Picasa, and more. Just point it out to us and we'll share it here on this post.
- Contest will run until Sunday, March 7, 11:59pm PST. On Monday (3/8), the X PRIZE staff will choose the winner and a runner-up to receive Google Lunar X PRIZE t-shirts and other cool prizes!
ENTRIES! (Updated Friday at 2:30pm PST)
