Question

Something for the Weekend - Part 200 - Celebration cake.

It finally came around - this week we have the 200th edition of Something for the Weekend!

 

To celebrate I though we should share a cake. The cake is baked and iced in the picture below but it needs decorating, and that's where you come in.

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only. Sorry to emphasise this, but the image is not for use elsewhere.

 

To download the image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right.

Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

 

 

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Dave

This has a tenuous link to this week's SFTW thread other than I called the file 'Dave's Reward' in this thread.  It was 20 minutes of my life that I feel compelled to share.  BTW  The rain is one of the Parametric Filters.  There are one or two genuinely useful effects in the PFs.

Trevor, that's very thoughtful as well as very clever — from 001 to 200!

Dave, I love this image that you baked for us to celebrate 200 weekends of challenges and fun and friendship as we have shared techniques and stories over the years.

 

Happy Halloween to all!

Thank you Jane. We'll done getting both the Halloween theme as well as the binary number for the challenge into your image.

We had to squeeze anotheer four candles on the baseboard, because they'd have spoiled the pattern on top.

Trevor, I dread the meltdown at the burnout.

But it must have taken a wee bit of time, Euan, uncannily clean cutting and removing and eating; and then you grassed yourself up.
