Disorder Posted January 12, 2003 Let's just assume that it is the year 2146, a short while after the catastrophic events on Phobos. Demonic forces have just invaded planet Earth. What would we see/hear/read in the media? The point of this thread is to take a snapshot of a website/newspaper/etc. and give it a slick realistic photoshop-makeover. I tried to make CNN's website look like Hell had just unleashed it's Demons on Earth. I hope I didn't make any typo's or grammarmistakes. Hopefully, many members will follow and make something of their own. Criticism is welcome, as long as it is usefull. By the way, I know CNN's website doesn't look like this in the future, but it ofcourse would take way too long to make a complete new website ;P CNN's website in the year 2146(?) Looks like the UAC is in a lot of trouble. The following picture is an extract from a newsmagazine such as Time in the year 2145. This happened just after the loss of radiocontact with Mars' outpost. Read this and hopefully you'll enjoy it. More pictures might be coming up soon. 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted January 12, 2003 Hahahahahaha, funny :-) Seriously thouhg, I doubt that newsfolk will have much time to write such colourful descriptions of the events - they're likely to quickly make a broadcast and a message to people, urging people to evacuate, before they try to save their own skin. Nice try....funny try ;-) 0 Share this post Link to post

Ichor Posted January 13, 2003 Now imagine the reaction if those guys who hacked RIAA (again?) did the same thing to CNN and put that picture, including the missing bottom half, on the front page. It would be the War of the Worlds radio broadcast all over again (at least for the gullible, heheh). 0 Share this post Link to post
Disorder Posted January 13, 2003 That is an excellent plan! By the way, does anyone have some plans for making other fake media-screenshots? Hopefully, we can have a thread full of this stuff. I've always wanted to give a little realistic twist to Doom. -edit- Typo removed in pic. 0 Share this post Link to post

King II Posted January 29, 2003 Nice pics. :) Sure is good idea, I'm hoping to see more reports ect. How 'bout some photo manipulations which show demons chasing (or eating) humans. :) 0 Share this post Link to post

I've tried something like that about 2 years ago and I had to blur the picture and make it look like it was taken in a hurry. I also had to move the sprites to the background to make them look more convincing. But feel free to take a shot at it, I'm hoping to see some more pics by others in this thread. 0 Share this post Link to post

You could use Doom 3 screenshots - cut out zombies and demons from Doom 3 screenshots and throw them into the pic in a way so that they fit. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lord FlatHead Posted January 31, 2003 Cool ! I was thinking about doing something similar to the CNN website, running stories about the third world war a few years from now. "SKY IS CHARRED WITH THE SOOT OF A HUNDRED MILLION DEAD", things like that. Great job. 0 Share this post Link to post

Somehow, fake news relating to Doom is far more interesting to me than just artwork. No offense really, but it makes it far more easy to believe what you're seeing. 0 Share this post Link to post
