Spoof me and win a DRK contest
OK. As many of you have noticed, some of our DRK marketing materials use some pictures of me. You can see some examples on the macromedia home page (you may have to reload it a couple of time) as well as here, here and here.
Well, I don’t know what to say except that marketing made me do it! Anyways, I have already seen a couple of spoofs, so I figured I would roll with it. So, I am going to hold a contest for the best spoof of the DRK ads. The winner will receive a copy of DRK 3.
Just send the link to your spoof directly to me at: mesh@macromedia.com or post it in the comments. I’ll post the finalist, and then I (along with a few other judges) will pick the winner. The deadline is next Monday, April 28 at 5 pm est.
Can you say vanity

I don’t think that is being vain at all. I am just rolling with what was already going on (i had already seen two spoofs last night).
If you can’t laugh at yourself…

Mike, you might want to try a partnership (or just drop a note) with fark.com, worth10000.com or somethingawful.com - no, seriously. They are guys who do photoshop contests everyday, and I know there are some (mostly young) developers there.
That’d be fun, at least.
