    Chop Shop Rules

    General Rules:

    1. BMW photoshops only. This is a BMW forum, so non-BMW related chops/requests are not allowed. This rule may not apply to contests.
    **Non-BMW chops may be requested from time to time, but will not be given preference**

    2. RESPECT. Personal attacks and such will NOT be tolerated.

    3. Friendly criticism ONLY. Make critiques helpful, not hateful. Bashing is not allowed.

    4. Plagarism is STRICTLY PROHIBITIED. BFC will not tolerate stealing others' work.

    5. This forum abides by all rules set forth by the BFC administration. These rules can be viewed here.


    When requesting a chop:


    1. Supply the largest picture you have. The bigger it is, the easier it is to work on.

    2. Make sure the picture is somewhat high-quality. No cell phone pics please.

    3. Supply a picture of the mod/part you want chopped. ie- post a picture of the rim, kit, etc.

    Contest Rules:

    Contest rules and guidelines can be viewed here.

    Only BMW photoshops, no other cars please. This is not something to be discussed as it's part of the General BMW Forums, if you want to include other cars, it should go in OT.

    When the rules are done, I'll make the official thread. Thanks for the collaboration I already parked this thread.

    BTW, we can also have another sticked thread with some PS tricks and guides, what do you think?

    How about some Contest Rules


    Here's some...

    1. You cannot borrow/steal parts from an already chopped image.

    2. Only ONE submission/entry per person. Once you posted your entry, you may not do any more changes to it.

    3. No nudity or vulgarity.

    4. You final entry should be posted no larger than 800x600px. A higher-res version can posted but only as a link.

    5. Files must be in JPG format. No BMP, no GIFs TIFF files etc.

    6. No cross-posting into other threads or advertising to get votes.


    We can also create a Leader Board thread where it show's the winner of every contest, as well as a link to the other entries. Up to you guys on what sounds good.

    Daved, I don't have my own tutorials but there are others out there already in the net. Is it ok to post those links?

    Hey do we need any signature request rules? Just wondering if anyone had any ideas since so many people have been requesting sigs.

    What if I asked for a sig with my BMW and Audi... Would that not be allowed since it is another make, or is it permissible because there is still BMW content. Figured I'd ask before just making a thread.

    Not a problem. We've gotten a bit more lenient since the rules were originally made. I'd make you a sig with just the audi if you wanted.
