March 9, 2007 at 16:35
Hey, not so hard: #7 (I laughed out loud when I saw it), # 21 (someone’s goin’ to hell for that one!), and #22 (because I nearly swallowed my tongue).
In order? Gee, that’s tough. Maybe 21, 7, 22?
There’s plenty of good meat there, though. Some of you folks clearly have too little to do with your days.

I vote for B.O.B. (#4), dammit. With fuckin Freedom Pundit getting vaccuumed into the black Hole is an especially good touch. I’m dying here.
ELO (#8) slays me too.
And 21 — OMG!!1!!!!
I’m just surprised no one put him into a TRON suit, or did I miss it?
ED-209 said,
March 9, 2007 at 16:56
I vote #2 — Voltron! YES!

Um, #24, technically Ultraman was NOT a robot. Nice image, though.
ED-209 said,

Okay, and #20 was pretty sweet, too. Oh, and what the hell: #6.

Oh, shit could someone take Freedom Pundit from number 4 and add it to the B.O.B. in number 15? That would be the best ever. I mean, if you’re gonna totally destroy my sweet/sad childhood memory of B.O.B., do it with phunny overkill!!

My entry is #19–Roboputz with wingnut accessory.
peter ramus said,
March 9, 2007 at 17:47
Sure. I’ll even send you a copy of the email you sent me saying, “OOOH! I Likes It!!”
if that will sway any votes.

I perpetrated #10.
(Brad had people claim their pictures in comments to prevent self-voting. Sneaky! But I would have voted for 2, 6 and 21 anyway.)
Has somebody made sure that InstaRoboCracker himself knows about the contest and gets an opportunity to vote?

1, 11, 21.
Also 24, because I remember Ultra-man fondly from the cold and rainy Sunday afternoons of my youth. But I guess that’ll have to be an honorable mention.
SamFromUtah said,
March 9, 2007 at 18:00
I’m going to say #1, #6, and #20.
#1 is my favorite, though - if I had any Photoshop skillz I’d have gone with the Rock-em Sock-em Robots too.
Well done, everyone!
spencer said,
March 9, 2007 at 18:02
Oh, shit - I didn’t even notice the Hindrocket face in #2! There’s so much going on there - and numbers 12 and 23 didn’t even show up the first time, both of which would have received serious consideration . . . goddamn intertubes. Ah, well, whaddaya gonna do?
Incontinentia Buttocks said,
March 9, 2007 at 18:03
Can I vote three times for #21?
If not, give my other votes to: #2 and #22.
peter ramus said,
March 9, 2007 at 18:05
I’ve got Jimmy Carter on the line, Brad. He’s willing to parachute in and straighten out this whole thing pronto.
Oh, and 2.
General Woundwort said,
March 9, 2007 at 18:07
#2, #11, and #21
I have to say, though, #2 is the runaway leader in my opinion. The face of hindrocket is just so perfectly placed.

Casting my vote for 1, 2, & 14.
1 - just makes so much sense
2 - Wingnuts on parade, plus VOLTRON! (Though perhaps they should have been ro-beasts…)
14 - Adding W in place of the cook is that little extra touch that propels the work into the realm of genius

But 6, 7 and 15 for heroic runner ups, indeedydoodydoo.

In no particular order*:
No. 1 - Minutes later, the defeated Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Reynolds launched pre-emptive nuclear strikes on the Mousetrap board.
No. 2 - … with Assrocket Corndogphallus Grip! Ewwwww!
No. 8 - Psychedelic 70’s sci-fi libertarian nanobot astral projection pron? What’s not to love?
No. 15 - *BEEDY BEEDY* Lileks *RZZT* has more *BRZZT SPRKK JXZZZ*!
No. 21 - … and Jeff Goldstein caught the bouquet. With his cock. By slapping it down, covering it in peanut butter and shoving it in his dog’s ass.
No. 22 - Glenn … or Glenda? Woo-hoo! Hey, big boy … is that an Army of Davids in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

Number 21 is clearly the winner. I’ll also pick 18, because that comes closest to how homeslice probably visualizes his future self. Then 13 to round it out.
norbizness said,
March 9, 2007 at 18:48
Sorry about that, Brad, I put it in the original post and thought it had just been downloaded. In any event, it’s no better than 19th place.

What, nobody did ED-209? Because when I think Glenn Reynolds, a robot that can’t walk down steps just seems so….appropriate.
#25. Because you know our future robot bodies will be made by Honda.
#20. Because in Glenn’s dreams, Michelle has apparenlty upgraded her body also. And her wardrobe. God that was a sexist thought and I’m ashamed. whover put Malkin in that picture is responsible.
and #21. Because it’s so wrong.

Well, 21 is my first pick. It’s also my next seven picks…
I’d round out my top three with 7 and 11, with an honorable mention for 19.
And thanks to all — these beauties make me want to develop photoshopping skills the same way that Chet Atkins led me to the guitar…
TomMil said,
March 9, 2007 at 19:18
I submitted #24, I knew Ultraman was not a robot but I liked him and thought what the hell. The thought of Glenn having to fly to the sun for energy struck me as funny for some reason. But I’m actually surprised it got any votes.
My votes go to 2, 21 and 1 in that order.
Chris Lepore said,
March 9, 2007 at 19:20
Ivan, as the party responsible for #13, I appreciate your praise. Your cashier’s check is in the mail.
My picks, in reverse order:
3.) #19. I concur; the wingnut party hat completes the ensemble.
2.) #2. Hindy’s corndog is disturbingly mesmerizing.
1.) #21. Really took my basic idea to the next level.

Guys, you’re not experiencing this on a deep enough level if you’re not listening to “To the Point” on NPR. The subject: robot ethics.
Oh, and Lesley, just know that if you lose, it’s only because the second B.O.B. has the cute vote tied up.
And Norbizness has his own installation space, so I’m guessing that’ll cost him (I’m not voting for his Soundwave opus out of pique–he ruined my day off by posting links to the Feministe dustup and its tangents)

I would like to take this opportunity to say that Danny Guam is my new best friend, for he is the only person who tossed a vote in the direction of my entry (#5). If it was a typo, Danny, please don’t tell me — there are some things I just don’t need to know about.
My votes are:
#2

but the competition was . . . uh . . . stiff.
And I concur with the clamoring for a regular PS contest. How else will I ever develop da skillz?

First, thanks to anyone who thought my effort was worth it (#19–headgear)…I’m deliberately recusing myself because I’d like to think I’m not as crass as Scalia or Thomas, but I’m certainly impressed by all of them…and have a particular fondness of #13, just cause I really like “Metropolis.”
And, in the spirit of “People called Romani they go the house”…

It was SO HARD to get down to three from six. All of them were funny.
But after another glass of wine:
2 for being in harmony with the concept of transformers and cruelty to all
11 for imagination, excellence in photoshopping technique, and producing a very pleasing image.
21 for sheer, laugh out loud lack of honor

I vaguely remember that as a recurring line in The Marching Morons, where it reminded readers of the all-persuasive imbecility of that future world. is that what you were referring to, Marq?
A quick Google search informs me that IBTFAD now a wide-spread meme (apparently radiating out from a line in Robocop). This can’t be good.

Thanks. It wasn’t all that difficult, to be honest. The version of Photoshop I have is WAY old (version 4.0), but has layer options. Once I pasted Putz’s head to the body, I modified the layer (I forget–I either used “multiply,” “overlay,” or “hard light”), then selected the background and did a little bit of cleaning up.
Photoshop for me is sort of the equivalent of computer games. I’m mostly self taught, although a couple of times I’ve gone to this site to look stuff up

Go ahead, click the link, scroll down past the pictures of your heroes Hanoi jane (name left un-capitalized on purpose) and Sean Penn. Is that you? Why does your ilk hate America?
