Retrofitted Back to the Future
Today’s products retrofitted back to the future: Worth1000 bills itself as a “contest website” (with competitions in the categories of photography, multimedia, text, and Photoshop) — not exactly a description that inspires one to race to the computer to check it out. But you should.
One of its most recent Photoshop contests, Vintage Ads 6, gave participants 48 hours either to create an ad for a modern product using vintage advertising motifs or to take a vintage product and display it in a modern way (most participants chose the former). The top 39 entries featured on the site for each contest are often wonderfully creative and funny and at times brilliant.
