Aw, I haz a sad now. This was one of my routine stops on Saturday/Sunday, even though I never participated. Seeing all the fun ‘shops and the goofy culture around them has been a highlight of my weekend since forever. Just like Highlight Reel was.

Sorry to see this Photoshop Contest ends once again, it been a fun ride.

Hwhaaaat? Sounds like someone has lost his/her mind. Nothing will be the most successful all the time, but most good stuff will be successful most of the time. I wonder how “successful” is measured by the owners (I’ve forgotten the name).

First and foremost I’d like to thank my close friend Zack for putting these contests on every week and Peter too where ever he is. Then I want to thank Cecil_banon for not only being there pretty much every week with fantastic entries of his own but always having a better caption for mine than I could ever think of. I…

I knew it was too good to be true! But see you on your Discord! And congrats to this week’s winners! 

Perhaps if the contests had their own header alongside ‘latest’ , ‘cosplay’, and ‘reviews’ at the top of the page there would be more engagement.

Somebody called the Fun Police

Thats unfortunate. Coming to check out the wacky shit made for them was the main draw of coming here on weekends.

Honestly very upset at this.

This bums me out, but I know it wasn’t up to you, Zack. Thanks for making the weekends fun again for the last several years. If Kotaku goes back to “all e-sports all the time” on the weekends, I’m fucking out of here.

You said it better than I could. One less thing for me to look forward to on Saturday. It really does make me sad.

Good luck to you too, and congrats on being reigning champ for eternity!

I never took part—no skills, but I remember you all encouraging me to try, just the same—but I’ve also never missed one. This hit me... harder than I would’ve expected, and it does make me sad.  But that being said, thanks to everyone involved down the years!

Yeah you too!

I am honored to have shopped amongst you all. For about 10 years now, every Sunday I’ve looked forward to being creative and weird and whatever through this shop contest. First with Owen, then Mike, and now with Zack. It’s been a fun outlet and a great evolving community. I will miss it, mostly for the side jokes we…

Damn didn’t realize this was the last one. At least I was able to get in one last Owen wheelbarrow for the road. Thanks to everyone for making the shop contest so fun each week.
