Crestock is running a Photoshop Contest where you can modify the design of the “themed” image and re-submit it back to them.

Your entry must be based on one or several of these photos, but you are free to do with them whatever you like. You may also use other elements in your design, as long as one or more of the source images can be recognised as a central part of your design.

The winner is determined 40% by public vote, 60% by our highly qualified judges’ votes. The public voting will open after the deadline for each round and run for one week.

They will be picking a winner for each round and prizes include: iPod Classic + iPod Nano, MacBook 13″ White, MacBook Pro 15″, Mac Pro + Dual 30″ Cinema Displays.
