Just whipped up a standard wiki page. If I can't think of something more creative, I'll just send it as is.

[Rock Raiyu]

Well, I'm done for now..I can't get my image to show up though. If someone can fix it, that'd be helpful. Otherwise, my entry is in the Wiki link below.

Can I say something?

I thought the judges weren't picking photoshopped ones?

We will not be picking the prettiest photoshop job, so just have a go!

That's really unfair.

Not sure if the judges meant that in the literal sense.

What I got from reading that was that they just won't be picking a winner based on the "prettiest" mock-up (I think many consider "Photoshop" to be a modern synonym for mock-up), but heavily judging based on the actual concept and functionality of the dream gadget.

Great entries by all, btw!

 

[reimu]

Phewf, wiki page is done... I'm quite happy with it. WARNING: To those opposed to pink, better steer clear xD

3020: Freaking awesome page. I laughed, a lot, like almost died laughing.

 

[Rock Raiyu]

Anyone know how to get the thumbnail thing to work? I keep getting an error.

 

[reimu]

It seems to be a problem with the way the image was uploaded (not the code itself). I was having tons of problems uploading my images too. Try re-uploading them or updating them, make sure you don't change the file name in the second box (I found that would mess up my upload).

I've done it like 4 times and no change..oh well..

 

[reimu]

Very very strange, well, if you have given up on the thumbnail thing you can always just use this code:

[[Image:itsame2.jpg|right|]]

As far as I know you can't have a caption on it this way... but I could be wrong. It's not quite as pretty as a thumbnail, but it works.
