If it's up to me, you can take as much time as you need.

For those who have never seen Photoshop Tennis, here are the basic rules: We'll start with a stock image (chosen by the referee, I suppose) and decide who goes first. That person takes the image, modifies it in some manner, and posts the result. The other person then takes the new image, modifies it, and posts the result again. This process continues until a set number of "volleys" are completed (or until some other criteria are met, if you'd prefer). Then the winner is chosen in some manner - perhaps by popular vote? - and adulation is heaped upon him/her. The loser goes home and cries.

See, there really aren't that many rules - it's an art competition, after all - but there is one important one: Your modified picture must retain some recognizable element of its predecessor. Posting a completely unrelated image is a good way to forfeit the match (although you'll have the opportunity to defend your image, of course, should this become an issue). Also, it's traditional for someone to provide commentary in a vaguely sports-announcer style while the match is under way. I'd be glad to do this.

So, interested?
