We're sad to see Peter Moore move on from Microsoft. Not that we're Xbox fanboys, just that it's going to be really hard to put together a list of questions about Madden NFL 2009 or whatever year FIFA is on now ('99?) to ask of Moore next time we see him. To comemmorate his departure from the Xbox family and to have a bit of fun, we're having a Peter Moore Tattoo Photoshop Throwdown. Yes, of course, this is clearly a Something Awful forums Photoshop Phriday swipe, but that doesn't mean we won't enjoy ourselves.
You'll find the master Peter Moore tattoo template below. Simply work your image manipulation magic, whether it be in Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, MS Paint (we're sure Pete would be proud) or the software package of your choice and wow us with your pixel pushing talents.
We've already removed the Halo 2 tattoo for you, but it's your job to find a suitable replacement for Bungie's Xbox hit. Hell, if you've got another template you want to work with, that's kosher. All we're looking for are hilarious, totally safe for work tattoo jobs.
The winner of this contest will get something smokin' hot. Send your images to kotakucontest@gmail.com by Friday, July 20th at 9 PM PDT and give it your best 'shop.

Smoking hot? If that's Lair (you know, fire breathing) I'm in!
@bobtheduck: (...)
I think that picture broke my laptop! I'm only getting a really blurry picture of him.
I'm done with mine already. I'm probably going to lose, but I don't care.
@Gamemaster: Same here, but its awesome. :]

I did a bit overkill... made a BUNCH of pictures...
I really want that "smoking hot" prize. Maybe it's a meeting with Moore... If I saw him in real life, I'd be like "Hi... So you're peter moore? Wow... Big Dreamcast fan."
sent mine in. contest. over.
Here's hoping that the smokin' hot prize is Moore actually getting the tattoo that wins. *fingers crossed* "Hey I'm the reason that the head of EA Sports has that ridiculously ugly tattoo" I don't wish the guy any ill will, but thats a prize I could get behind...
HA! I knew the tattoo was fake! =P
@digitalrift: It's real... the magic of photoshop took it away, read the post.
@ch0rx:
He was joking...read the emoticon.
it's time to get that John Madden tat on his arm.
Is it just one entry per person, or can we send in multiple ones and the best one is chosen?
So umm... if it's in the game it's... On His Arm(tm)?
Check's... errr... Entry's in the mail. :P
I... Uh... got a problem:

Wow, got my entry in, just in time for their box to fill up...
I'm GUARANTEED victory, now!
*cough*
same here..
"The message could not be delivered because the recipient's mailbox is full."..lol
I sent mine off, but Kotaku members are pretty creative... I'm guessing that there will be some really good entries as usual.
Yep, same problem with the mailbox. I finally try to compete, and... Go figure! Ha!
How dare you swipe this "Photographical Workshopping" idea from us goons! I am enraged by your blatant thievery and all around disregard for our internet copyrights, which are just as valid and legally enforceable as a regular one! Prepare to hear from our legal council, Attorney Leonard J. Crabs! You think that with your Jack Thompsons and your Phoenix Wrights, that the world of law is just fun and games! Well sir, tell me how fun it is when you've got the Crabs on you!
Not. Very. Fun. At. All.
Kotaku better fix their mailbox... I just spent the past 3 hours on my entry and I can't send it off because of the stupid mailbox is full or something........... I REALLY WANT MY ENTRY TO BE SEEN!!!
wait, it has to be safe for work? FUCK
Man I am always on top of gaming news...until today...today was the one day I was gonna be separate from the gaming media....and I get home and THIS HAPPENS....I am still in shock...I don't know how to react or what anything means anymore....
@Sgoast:
Post of the day.
I have a strong feeling that the entries will be split 50/50. One side of the coin good with effort put into the work, while the other side just quick mish-mashes.
@adventchild08: O noes, someone with a public profile found a new job, how ever will you cope?
"Not that we're Xbox fanboys"
o rly? you had me fooled.....well almost......
@ftrunks2k:
dead horse beat yes?
I entered. I hope the prize IS that the winner gets to meet Peter Moore. I'll punch him in the face the 360 that I sent in in the middle of June and still haven't gotten back. Then I'll kick him in the nuts for the extremely long hold times for customer support. Then I'll step on his head because I hate I hate EA Sports. Then I'll piss on him... well, just to say I took a piss on Peter Moore.
I made a contribution, it is so bad though, I dont have the skills some nerds posses on the nets :(
IN!
Hehe. Check this one out:
[www.geekrising.com]
It's also got Shiggy and Phil Harrison.XD
Oh boy. I wonder what /v/ is up to...
@darkowl: ...Totally. I mean it just shouldn't happen.
PS: "O noes", thats funny I some how thought the myriad of lolcats cliches had finally started to fade...
I registered specifically for the fun of this contest, though I've been subscribed to Kotaku's RSS since forever.
I must get in!
@cringer8: I didn't know =P was the international sign of sarcasm.
In case anyone missed it, the e-mail address has been updated in the post with the correct one. If anyone had issues submitting, please send to kotakucontest@gmail.com.
I'm game, you will see something from me by tomorrow.
I am destined to win, the entire team that worked on the Lord of the Rings digital effects helped me out.
just sent mine off - but to be honest i wouldnt even be surprised if mr moore got a tattoo of goatse inked on his forehead so these entries are not going to be that surprising.
Awesome idea for a contest! Got my submission in! Good luck to everyone else! I can't wait to see what you guys came up with!
Submitted!
Submitted mine earlier today! Good luck to all that gave it a shot! Can't wait to see how creative everyone got!
I threw down. Fingers crossed for us all!
I'm excited to see the geeky talent here. :D
SA invented photoshopping?
Does anyone know when the results will be posted? I want to check out what you guys came up with...
I just now submitted mine...good luck to all!
I just read about this contest at 9:01 :(
Was going to do a 360 red ring of death tatoo but I'm sure someone already has that covered.
