    • eliteeggnog, on 12/27/2007, -52/+6Also, the file is saved as portal_copy.jpg which PS makes you do if you save it as a different format (from PSD).
      • jonshipman, on 12/27/2007, -8/+3Should have used a Save to Web & Devices option.
        • SatansSpatula, on 12/27/2007, -0/+8Should have enabled the 'humor' option on your brain.
      • iDiggIt42, on 12/28/2007, -1/+4WHOOOSH
    • mattcoady, on 12/27/2007, -7/+77I think he was making a joke
    • LittleDas, on 12/27/2007, -2/+74the reflections are all wrong
    • b3mus3d, on 12/27/2007, -21/+4Those are lego blocks, silly!
    • jjustin01, on 12/27/2007, -25/+3"blocky pixels"...come on guys. he's being a smart ass. they're freakin lego "blocks"
    • Dracusis, on 12/28/2007, -2/+3The shadows on the floor under each character don't match, so it seems they/he/she only added some glow effects to the portals themselves, the rest seems real.
    • bballbackus, on 12/28/2007, -3/+4AHOHO! eets funny because the blocks are legos... uh ho ho
    • Indoth, on 12/28/2007, -4/+1XKCD much?
      http://xkcd.com/331/
    • Jargonaut06, on 01/03/2008, -0/+1Are you saying the pixels are a lie?
  • Unclekoolaid, on 12/27/2007, -5/+209"Did you know you can donate one or all of your vital organs to the Aperture Science Self Esteem Fund for Girls? It’s true!"
    • jtbandes, on 12/27/2007, -1/+26You can't donate just two.
    • Pestilence76, on 12/27/2007, -46/+3What the hell does this have to do with Legos?
    • kuj007, on 12/27/2007, -6/+60Maybe you'll find someone else to build legos with you.
      Maybe Black Mesa.
      THAT WAS A JOKE.
      HAHA. FAT CHANCE.
      • BestJaxx, on 12/27/2007, -2/+14Anyway these legos are great,
        They're so blocky and fun.
        Look at me still talking when there's legos to build.
        When I look out there it makes me glad I'm (need a rhyme, damn.)
      • washboard, on 12/27/2007, -6/+5How many times do we have to go through this?
        The plural of LEGO is LEGO.
        • bradkovach, on 12/28/2007, -2/+3That went right over your head. Why don't you get steam, get portal, play portal and wait for the end song.
          Or just listen to it on YouTube: http://youtube.com/watch?v=RthZgszykLs
          Besides, it sounds stupid to say "Look at me still talking when there's LEGO to build."
        • gllopc, on 12/28/2007, -0/+5You just need to LEGO of it, man.
      • Kyora, on 01/02/2008, -0/+0Anyways this cake is great
        It's so delicious and moist!
    • slvrbullet87, on 12/27/2007, -6/+7So you want me to donate my organ to help girls self esteem?
      doesnt that translate to porking fat chicks?
      • gn0stik, on 12/28/2007, -1/+3I'll prolly go to hell, like u, but I lol'd
  • deeboe, on 12/27/2007, -41/+17Why is it a big deal if something is shopped anyway? Obviously this didn't really happen in real life, so get over it.
  • actorboy, on 12/27/2007, -13/+54That's front page stuff, is it?
    • Homoomo, on 12/27/2007, -0/+23It's better than a lot of other crap that makes it to the front page...
      • DarkSamus, on 12/27/2007, -2/+8like ron paul and *****

        :O
        • Homoomo, on 12/28/2007, -0/+4Lol exactly. Digg's front page = Ron Paul, someone got tased, legalize drugs, Ron Paul, top 10 list, someone got tased, Ron Paul, legalize drugs, top 10 list, legalize drugs, someone got tased.
    • LeeSoong, on 12/27/2007, -4/+1" LEAVE JAMIE ALONE ! ! ! " - enough said...
  • amgamer23, on 12/27/2007, -18/+6I love Legos oh so much...
    And don't even say anything about me using 'S' on the end of that...
  • dejected, on 12/27/2007, -3/+51wow....sarcasm escapes this group!
  • cardyology, on 12/27/2007, -16/+2It dosnt matter that its photoshopped, its still a cool diorama :D
    • Scrappy1850, on 12/27/2007, -0/+8diorama cha cha cha, diorama cha cha cha!
  • killdashnine, on 12/27/2007, -6/+68The Lego Cake is a lie too ...
  • NEWNHLISLAME, on 12/27/2007, -13/+3Its awesome LEGO rocks!
    • msergeant, on 12/28/2007, -0/+9No, they're not rocks, they're blocks.
  • garageboy101, on 12/27/2007, -6/+16The square cakes are also lies!
  • darny, on 12/27/2007, -0/+36Awesome. All she needs are the heel springs and she's set.
  • lmf49, on 12/27/2007, -20/+3wtf. I don't get it.

    I'm even playing Lego Starwars II with my little sisters right now and i don't get it. BTW great game even for adults.
    • wild, on 12/27/2007, -1/+23Um. Ever heard of a game called Portal?
    • DarkSamus, on 12/27/2007, -0/+4i wanted to digg him up for playing lego star wars though
  • Relemsis, on 12/27/2007, -7/+5It would've been a LOT better if it was literally the same thing on both sides, with holes for the portals.
    • fotbr, on 12/27/2007, -0/+7Look at the lego bricks, there are actually holes in the walls.

      The same thing on both sides would make the shadows wrong for the portal though.
  • exomni, on 12/27/2007, -14/+01. No reason to photoshop in the glow.
    2. I hope those are photo prints for the insides of the "portals", if that is photoshopped as well, I am pissed.
    • Changa, on 12/27/2007, -3/+12Why do people care if art is photoshoped?
      This is not photo journalism.
    • chromecast, on 12/27/2007, -0/+1your pissed? you sound like an angry person.
  • LeeDoyle, on 12/27/2007, -13/+1What is so good about this?
    • edwartica, on 12/27/2007, -2/+5your mom - that's what.
      • chromecast, on 12/27/2007, -1/+3damn, you beat me to it. or maybe: His mom's face!
  • profundiz, on 12/27/2007, -7/+1I have not played with it for years, but how much of this is actually lego?
    • Cannon590A, on 12/27/2007, -0/+12All of it I think.
    • Insomnya3AM, on 12/27/2007, -2/+3It seems the set is made out of bathroom tile, as is the block.
      The fire bits, the person and I believe the gun are made of lego parts.
      • Warfarin, on 12/27/2007, -0/+3Its all lego : The base is just a stud board, with those smooth tiles put on top of it.
    • wibambau, on 12/27/2007, -0/+4It's all Lego, this one comes with a cake in the box too.
  • lnxfi, on 12/27/2007, -7/+6"You have no friends and you were adopted."

    "Cake will be served."
  • handheldchimp, on 12/27/2007, -0/+86"Didn't we have some fun, though? Remember when the platform was sliding into the fire pit and I said, "goodbye", and were all like, "NO WAI" (deep voice), and then I was all, we pretended we were going to murder you...that was great."
  • Paradoxymoron, on 12/27/2007, -3/+7"Before you can have cake, you must be baked..."
  • Sabretou, on 12/27/2007, -0/+11It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction.
  • daricanpa, on 12/27/2007, -7/+0"Didn't we have some fun though? Remember when the platform was sliding into the fire pit and I said 'Goodbye' and you were like (deep male voice) 'NO WAY!' (normal voice) and then I was all 'We pretended we were going to murder you'? That was great!"
    • hpfreak26, on 12/27/2007, -0/+14Wow. Usually people at least wait a few comments before they blatantly copy another person's comment word for word...
    • elrac, on 12/27/2007, -1/+17Wow. Usually people at least wait a few comments before they blatantly copy another person's comment word for word...
    • Insomnya3AM, on 12/27/2007, -0/+12Wow. Usually people at least wait a few comments before they blatantly copy another person's comment word for word...
    • chromecast, on 12/27/2007, -0/+9Wow. Usually people at least wait a few comments before they blatantly copy another person's comment word for word...
    • jamminman, on 12/27/2007, -0/+8Wow. Usually people at least wait a few comments before they blatantly copy another person's comment word for word...
    • Murdats, on 12/28/2007, -0/+2Wow. Usually people at least wait a few comments before they blatantly copy another person's comment word for word...
  • daricanpa, on 12/27/2007, -4/+7"Look - we're both stuck in this place. I'll use lasers to inscribe a line down the center of the facility, and one half will be where you live, and I'll live in the other half. We won't have to try to kill each other or even talk if we don't feel like it."
    • Insomnya3AM, on 12/27/2007, -2/+12I don't remember that line.
    • mflux, on 12/27/2007, -0/+4a great line from GLaDOS at the end where you're throwing her parts into the incinerator.

  • Cojawfee, on 12/27/2007, -1/+4This isn't photoshopped (except for the glow added). You can see the sides of the holes in the wall.
    • msergeant, on 12/28/2007, -1/+5Ahh, so it's not photoshopped apart from where it is?
  • beerbarron, on 12/27/2007, -1/+1I wish i thought of this to start off
  • DavidLightman, on 12/27/2007, -7/+16THE PLURAL OF LEGO IS LEGO!!!
    • Insomnya3AM, on 12/27/2007, -1/+37RACECAR backwards is CAKEISALIE
    • jthei, on 12/28/2007, -2/+3More than one Lego would be referred to as X number of "LEGO bricks" just like one would be called a single "LEGO brick." There is no plural for LEGO because it's the name of the company and there can be only one.
  • sleepysteve, on 12/27/2007, -3/+2If you fall into the sludge, it will result in unsatisfactory marks on your examination...as well as death.
  • PinkFloydFan, on 12/27/2007, -1/+22Weighted companion cube > normal cube.

    BURIED!
  • Vibhorsir, on 12/27/2007, -13/+0This isn't made out of legos..... It's a papercraft http://kotaku.com/gaming/portal/the-cutest-portal- ...
    • zzz@tkz, on 12/27/2007, -0/+9Because those two look exactly the same.
    • JudgeMonkey, on 12/27/2007, -1/+4Does that look at all the same as the picture? I mean, Ok I guess it does a little. Both are Chell getting a block through the wall, but the similarity ends there.
  • chokeaduck, on 12/27/2007, -2/+15F this. I thought they were making a Lego Portal like Lego Star Wars and Lego Batman. :(
  • MalDON, on 12/27/2007, -0/+8Back when the portalcraft came out I ran out of color ink so I had to improvise. I also added the companion cube.
    http://dawnerd.googlepages.com/IMG_1284.JPG
  • ZekeTsurai, on 12/27/2007, -0/+13Wow you people need a funny bone. It doesn't matter if it's real or not, it's friggin LEGO for crying out loud. The point is that it looks cool. Dugg!
  • ChaoticApathy, on 12/27/2007, -7/+0Awesome, it may be shopped, but it's still awesome.
  • Crucifix, on 12/27/2007, -1/+3Those aren't real p0rtals! Check the feet and the lines on the ground - they don't match up.
  • dungbeetle, on 12/27/2007, -9/+3The portals are made of blue and red flame pieces. The wall are is made of grey pieces stacked on each other and leave a hole to the other side like a door. The WCC and Chell are two separate, duplicate, models posed on opposite sides of the stacked grey pieces to look the same from different angles, giving the illusion that you are looking through a portal. It's not Photoshopped. Its a clever use of Lego Blocks and camera angles.
    • 2Deluxe, on 12/27/2007, -0/+7NOWAI. YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.
    • BattleScars, on 12/28/2007, -0/+2Wow. That's just something you have to know. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
    • aelias, on 12/28/2007, -0/+2What lego blocks emit glowing blue and orange haze?
      • alexkorova, on 12/28/2007, -0/+3The ones you see under the influence of LSD.
  • CroMag, on 12/27/2007, -16/+1Who wastes their time with this *****?
  • bdsams, on 12/27/2007, -0/+12speedy thing go in, speedy thing come out!
  • itsripitsrip, on 12/27/2007, -0/+2when did lego start making blue fire?
  • meatmaker, on 12/27/2007, -1/+4"This was a triumph..."
  • passedoutghost, on 12/28/2007, -2/+1How come she's wearing a Star Wars Rebel space suit?
  • Jhiaxuz, on 12/28/2007, -1/+1Dugg for lego mullet
  • icegoddess13, on 12/28/2007, -1/+1"First you will be baked and then there will be cake." :)
  • r3negadeX, on 08/11/2008, -10/+1This took no talent or creativity. Buried.
    • bradkovach, on 12/28/2007, -1/+4Your comment took no talent or creativity. Buried.
  • Ymeg, on 12/28/2007, -1/+1That is a triumph.
  • bubba88xw, on 12/28/2007, -2/+1lego is a lie.

  • QtheRing, on 12/28/2007, -1/+1I'm the creator of this, I really liked Portal so I decided to build something based on it in one of my more favored media-- Lego.
  • cloudzero45, on 12/28/2007, -0/+0love it.... where can i buy those pieces
  • CaptainPlanet25, on 01/13/2008, -0/+0these lego models of video games are sweet, right up there with Lolcats. now all we need is a bioshock one.
