Help! I have no photoshop skills...

[TracerBullet42]

Ok, this will sound like a strange request...but I thought that the wonderful people of ENWorld might be able to help me out.

For a little gag for a friend of mine, I'd like to print out something that looks like an $80 bill with Mike Ditka's picture on it. Now, I don't want it to look convincingly real or anything...it's just for a little gag.

Is there someone out there with some photoshop skills who could help me out here? I hope so! I don't really have anything to offer in return but some gratitude...but it'd be pretty cool if I could get this done...

Thanks!

Extremely easy to do. Send me two pics: one pic of a 10$ or 20$, or 50$ bill, plus one pic of Mike Ditka's face. The two pics should be heavier than 500 kb each (in jpg). I will do the job for you.

I just sent you a pair of pics...they're not 500 kb each. I'm not sure where to find bigger ones. I hope that they will work. Thanks!

just make sure it is not something that anyone with an IQ of 20 or more would confuse with real money... the US government doesn't take kindly to people printing things that look too much like cash.

Forget about the 500kb requirements, it was a typo. Now enjoy...

Sometimes it would seem that I have nothing better to do...

Turanil!

I don't know what TB42 will say, but I gotta say THAT IS BRILLIANT!

Great job!

Thank you very much!

By the way, could someone explain me why this is supposed to be funny? I mean: I don't know a damn who in the hell this Mike Ditka is, and why putting his head on a 80$ bank note is funny...

First of all...WOW! Nice job!

It most likely isn't funny to most people. As a Chicagoan, and a Bears fan, Ditka is dear to my heart. He coached the Chicago Bears to a superbowl victory back in 1985. And ever since that time, our beloved Bears have stunk. Ditka was a Chicago icon and is still heralded around our city.

That's all fine and good, but why put his face on an $80 bill? It comes back to football. A group of my friends and I have been running a fantasy football league for about 12 years now. And one of the guys had an undefeated season this year, and won big. No one has ever dominated our league like that before him. So he said he wanted his prize money ($80) commissioned from a mint as an 80 dollar bill with Mike Ditka's face on it to commemorate the occasion.

Clearly, such a request could not be fulfilled, but I thought it'd be neat to make a little "fake" one and frame it to commemorate his great season. He's going to be VERY suprised to see that.

So thanks again, Turanil! That's some great work. I owe you one.

LOL! Iron Mike it is! excellent work turanil.

and just to avoid confusion, Ditka was the coach of an American Football team, as opposed to the sport that we dumb Yanks call "soccer" and the rest of the world calls football.
