Missing Iranian missiles located online!

As soon as I saw
that story of the Iranian missile Photoshop job the first thought that popped into my mind was "Photoshop contest." Unfortunately my skills aren't so sharp that I was able to get my sample contributions out very quickly. While I noodled with layers and opacity,
this guy followed a similar idea to one I had about increasing the number of missiles to the point of absurdity and did it better and funnier (but he didn't add a Santa!). Nearly a hundred thousand views of his image as I write this.
Speaking of better and funnier,
this Wired item did a nice job of surfacing some gems from around the Web.
Speaking of round-ups, The Chicago Tribune did a nice round-up of
other famous fakes.
We've never had a Photoshop contest here at Clicked and I'm not sure
how it would work since I don't have a voting system built into this
software. Let's just call this one an open invitation just to see how
much interest there is. If someone blows us all away I'll hit up
marketing for a prize to give.
Post your link in the comments
and I'll try to round them up periodically. Before any comments are
approved I'll check the link first so you won't have to worry about
surprises when you click them.
I did three of them:
this,
this and
this.
