Inspired by www.somethingawful.com's Photoshop Phriday, I thought we could have a little fun with the images around here!

To participate, make an entry using an original picture from BGG, and in the comments of your listing, enter your Photoshopped (or whatever graphics program you prefer) version so that we can see both the original and the altered.

My first image was inspired by the list "Games with a Catch Up Mechanism".

Let's have some fun!

Influenced by the popularity of the pot, Mayfair releases new version of T&E with slacks, wicker baskets, and latrines as player options!

I thought 'slacks' was some short form of Sleestak.

I was looking and looking for it... ohhhhh, he means 'pants'!
