Sometimes during the semester we have been challenged by being asked to challenge your Photoshop skills
by entering digital contests. Coke has sponsored one for years. Meriden's Project Graduation is a local one.
We'll see what comes along this year.

In the mean time, check out these internet Photoshop contests that anyone can enter.
Pay attention to the results. Amazing. Maybe we'll get proficient enough to enter one of these.
