Never, and I repeat, never download a free copy of a photo editing program and expect it to resize the picture and look decent afterwards. That is my sin on this picture. My excuse...my compute was in storage for almost 2 weeks, as well as my CD of Photoshop.

Pretty pixelated, but like the concept and the setting.

Did you make it to Akron, OH?

The picture is a bit small and very grainy and coarse... Perhaps a better resolution would have helped.

My dad introduced me to the world of soapbox derbies. Fun stuff =)
Unfortunately it looks a bit pixelated =/

You might want to check your method of resizing the shot -- it looks like some of the details got a little funky upon resizing. In other words, as an example you can see that the man's back is a bit jagged rather than being a smooth curve. I'll be glad to lend a hand if you want to PM me.

Nice photo but the edges are way too choppy. Too much sharpening?

I like the composition, but the image quality is a bit distracting.
