I saw a wierd photo that looked like 2 different images of the same thing that were combined to form one photo somehow. Is this sort of thing legal for a DPC challenge?
EDIT: What if it was an edited version on top of the original?

Adjustment layers (levels, curves, etc.) are okay, but I don't think the type of layers you're talking about are.
Suggest you request a DQ (voting as if it is legal) and let the admmins sort it out.

Ah right.
I don't think it's legal under normal DPC rules. The rule that springs to mind is the one that says you can't adjust transparency on a layer - something I expect you would have to do for this to work.

Bod, you had me worried there... the rules don't say that anywhere. |

i have another thread about splitting channels. If i split the colour channels and say resize 1 and recombine them without adjusting transparancy is it legal? |

I think that the rules can be interpreted a number of ways sometimes, and allow for a small degree of interpretation, but this seems against the spirit of what is normally acceptable here IMO.
I don't know about splitting channels, but it's splitting hairs!

Layers: Only adjustment layers may be used, and the layer must be applied in normal mode. All other types of layers and all other blending methods (modes) are prohibited. Layers may not be used to apply a prohibited effect to an image.
You're right. Maybe the rules used to (pre DPC2) say no transparency adjustments, or maybe I dreamed it! : )
It does say only adjustment layers though.
Brendon - your new question is beyond me! I'll let someone with more photoshop know how answer that one.
