In the future I might do this as a contest where the first poster to find all the errors would actually win the actual bill (without the errors of course) All you have to do is look at the bill and find 10 things wrong with it. I thought this might be kind of fun. So look carefully at the bill below and find the 10 errors. Some are quite easy to spot, some not so easy, others may or may not look like wear and tear (but it definitely will show that I edited it)
Like I said, if a lot of people want me to make this a monthly contest, I would be more than happy to do it.

Actually you are 90% correct, I didn't remove the FW next to the F29 in the bottom left. Since this was just a test, I will share with you the last error. Maybe I shouldn't have done this one, but at the very top of the portrait, where the design spreads into the curly cues I replaced the blank diamond shape fill with the pattern of the background of Jefferson's head. That probably is way too hard to spot. I guess I should stay away from using the "stamp" tool in photoshop in small areas. Thanks for the post. And I will be making this a contest. One every month. And I hope I'm not the only one in charge of doing a contest like this, I wanna play this game too.

Not much. Never even thought of it.

I'd like to add from graceoutcast post:
-The words Federal Reserve Note reads as FEDERALRESERVENOTE. ?
-At first glance the words TWO DOLLARS on the top left looks a bit smaller them the one on the top right.?

Actually the Federal Reserve Not was not edited and neither was the Two Dollars on the top left. Don't worry, I will be doing some 1's and 5's later on. I think this type of contest will be really fun.

hmmm, I'm now thinking, this would probably break my collection... You think that it would be better for the winner to make a trade instead? I would be like giving out free moneys... plus paying a bit for s/h.
Tell me what you think.

When I did my last contest for guessing the country of my new avatar I packed about 15 darkside coins into an envelope and mailed it out to the winner. It doesn't have to be expensive or large. For me contests are to have fun with while also being a learning experience for everyone too.

Speaking of which I'll do another Darkside Avatar Contest before I hit 1000. And it's gonna be a Lot bigger.

yeah, I guess your right, it IS to have fun. It's also a good way to make new friends and share common interests. Never mind my last post.
As for your upcoming contest, thanks for the heads up, I can't wait!
