If you actually thought that topic title/descrip were serious, you either don't know who I am, or there's something wrong with you Image
Basically, I made a set of fakes set one year from now, focusing on the Thanksgiving 2010 event:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you all know, Jagex released the newest Thanksgiving event yesterday. I don't think it's entirely horrible, but the events are definitely declining :(
Here are some pics from the site:
Image
"Biggest adventure yet"? Now, I know f2p doesn't have much to it, but that's still a big stretch :s. And farming is not exactly the skill I would be previewing to potential customers, either >.<

Image
Okay, so at least the event's a fair change from being obsessed with turkeys, but the idea still seems uninteresting :/. However, the other updates are pure win, I'm glad they're getting their act together Image

Image
Okay... Here's where I go "WTF?!" Image
The chefs are so desperate for fresh produce that they'd be willing to ruin the festivities by being so picky with ingredients? But when you ask them if it's unhealthy to eat mutant veggies, they don't seem to care? :/
But, really? A giant sunflower? I know Jagex has done some ridiculous things before, but... :s
I guess the reward is pretty fun I still don't know exactly what Betty wanted me to enlarge with it, but, really, it's like a rip off of how the snow globe made snow in the area around you back in 2007. But at least this one's effect will last after the event has ended. If not, this'll be a repeat of the last time they copied a reward and made it worse <_<
Here's what it looks like when you pour the potion:
Image
I guess it's a good reward, the only problem is that people like to spam it:
Image
At least it won't work indoors or at the GE (like it needs more lag) Image
So maybe the reward almost makes up for the boringness of the event itself, but I still think Jagex has been declining since November 6th :(
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spoiler for Click for more fakes:

I know many pics in those fakes were JPEGed or resized, but that's how it is on the real RS site. So I'm also posting the full-quality pics of anything that I deliberately had to lower the quality of:
The pic you see on the home page:
Image
The pic in the event guide:
Image
Close-ups on the fake plants (yes, they look more fake close-up because, in the original context, you would never have seen them that large anyhow):
Image
All item fakes with corresponding Grand Exchange versions and different amounts of seeds:
Image
(note that the "Juicy Tomato Seeds" and "Corn Seeds" shouldn't be confused with "Tomato Seeds" and "Sweetcorn Seeds". The new seeds are just to keep the event available to free-players)
I was originally debating what to use as the top banner:
Image
Here are close-ups of the Armadyl symbol, re-made from scratch with vectors:
Image
The shield fakes as PNG:
Image
And here's how I made the sunflower graphics (pen-tooled from scratch with some filters and textures in Macromedia Fireworks 8):

It was fun :p
The real thanksgiving event was just killing turkeys again, although this time they didn't drop any cornucopias :/

Also, I added some new images in the spoiler.

:o nice job!!!
The only error I could find (and trust me i tried) was that the grass was too uniform in the one where you added it in.

Really nice job. It looks like Jagex did it themselves.

:shock:

Very cool. Even if it didn't take that long, that's still impressive. Very nicely done. I like it a lot.

Actually, it did take long :P
That was just a joke - namely that none of the fakes I dedicate a topic to are ever easy! :wink:
Glad you like it, anyways :)

If you've seen my other fakes, you might :P
Honestly, the only thing I do at this forum is post my fakes. Much of this topic is actually copy/pasted from my topic at other forums, where I am well-known and post at more frequently. My total post count of all the forums I've posted this fake at are 1059 - 754 of which is attributed to my favorite forum. If I total all my posts from all the forums I've been at, I have 1703, so, honestly, is it such a crime to assume that someone, in at least one of the forums I'm at, knows who I am and that I never do anything simple/easy? :roll:

Very nice fake indeed. Seems like you've raised the standards from our forums :P Probably the best fake I saw since a very long time.

I'm glad you like it so much :D
I always try to put as much effort into my work as possible, so other people don't think it's okay for them to start slacking :P
And yeah, I've only posted in the fakes section at this forum, so I don't expect my post count to rise much anytime soon :P

Must have taken you a while to do that. I wish I had the patience to do something like that, but I don't. :( Anyway. Very nice fake, sort of wish it were actually true.
