Carlos send me the tip, thanks for that. Face in a Hole is a website where you can put your face, or the face of someone else, on well known images. Ever wanted to have the Rock’s muscles, Audrey Hepburn’s body or Wolverine’s claws ?

Face in a hole makes that possible. Just select a scenario from one of the many available. You can filter scenarios by categories if you like. Available categories are for instance Sports or Advertising. Once a user has selected a scenario he has to choose a source for the face that he wants to put on the image. The choices are either a webcam image or one from the hard drive.

The image is then added as a layer to the scenario and you can move it around, zoom and rotate it so that the face fits perfectly with the image that you have uploaded. The system tries to put the image that you upload in the correct relation to the scenario that you have selected.

Once you are satisfied you can simply save the image and send it to your friends or upload it to your Facebook or Myspace profile. Lots of fun guaranteed !

Simpsonize Me is a flash application that was created to promote the new Simpsons movie that was shown in cinemas earlier this year. What it does is that it transforms a closeup picture into a Simpsons character.

All you need is a closeup picture that has at least a size of 640 x 480 and some time to play around with the settings. You select gender, age, color (yellow is the way to go), clothing style and hair to begin the transformation. This is however not the end yet. If the picture is accepted you have the change to alter certain features of the new character.

You can adjust hair length, hairstyle, clothing and accessories to create a Simpson character the way you would like him. To give you a understanding of how the result can look like I took the liberty to transform a picture of myself. Feel free to post pictures that you have made in that thread.
