# IMAGE CHALLENGE: If everyday objects were Transformers
We've got a sponsored image challenge* and there's fucking good prizes.

1st: Apple Macbook
2nd: An HD DVD Player
3rd: Five HD Transformers DVDs

This is the official copy, 'Oooh, we've got a sponsored image challenge: Paramount is releasing the Transformers DVD on the 3rd of December and wants you to take an ordinary thing, say a stapler, and photoshop it into a Transformer. Best of all? We've got a shed load of prizes to give away: a lovely Macbook, an HD DVD player, and 5 HD DVD copies of the film. '

I'm sure you've got questions, so ask away.
