Cropped, resized, cloned-out the cursor from the monitor screen and a tiny bit of writing on the pencil, adjusted levels, curves, and sharpened. All legal!

Wow, my first top-10! *happy dance*

This did much better than I expected--I didn't think it would reach 6, since the monitor is crooked and the colors are off in the monitor display.

Very nice! I was wondering if someone would show cheating DPC style, and this is it! No way this will be DQd, as the image revolves around the hand deleting the image. Wonderful, artful yet artistic. Good luck!

Bumping up after comparing to the rest of the challenge.

I hope that the "erasure" lines on the hand were drawn prior to the photograph being taken, and that the photo was set up to display on the laptop while being taken, then cropped. To me this catches the essence of the most relevant kind of cheating here, and in a creative way that I would have liked to have thought of myself.
