Remember all the way back in the late summer of 2007 when we held a little contest called Touch Up D.C.? The general premise was this: inspired by a regular feature on our sister site, Londonist, we asked you to take an iconic image of our city and “touch it up” into something funny, freakish, or just plain wonderful. So here it is, August again, and judging by the energy being poured into our comment sections, we’re guessing you’ve got some spare time on your hands.

If you’d like to “touch up” a landmark, street scene, or any other image that represents the District, upload it to Flickr and tag it with “touchupdc” — we’ll take a look at what you send in and post our favorites. Please DO NOT upload your Touch Up entries to the regular DCist Photo Pool, however, as we don’t want anyone to end up getting confused. And remember, be as creative as you can be. There are no real rules to this endeavor other than it has to be based on an image of something in D.C. (D.C. metro area is OK too). Other than that, the possibilities are endless. For a little inspiration, take a look at what last year’s winners came up with. Now, open up PhotoShop and put those warped minds of yours to work!
