Whee!

So have you heard of obamicon.me, where you can upload pictures and turn them into versions of the iconic Obama poster? Well, superheroes lend themselves very well to the treatment:











I'd love to see some other favorite superheroes given this look! *looks hopeful* They have to be pretty big images, and it helps if the background is mostly blank, although it doesn't have to be...

Very, very nifty. ;) *hugs this to pieces*

I have a Photoshop tutorial to do this vector from scratch, but I just kinda put it on hold after step 14 lol.

The web page totally skips all that--it's amazingly easy. Finding the images took longer than making the pictures. :) You can adjust the color levels and everything, it's so cool...

Hee! This is so cool! :D

I couldn't think of "good" words to use for mine, and I don't have access to my nifty collection of images at home, but...nevertheless, here are Progress and Destiny.

/dances about (and is *totally* going about, pretending that the inauguration is really her bday gift from America. lol!)

Oooh, I especially like the Toonverse Dick one. Very nice!

I'm hoping this Inauguration is a gift to the whole damn world. I know that's schmaltzy as hell, but today I'm giving myself license to be a bit sentimental.

*hugs* HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I wholeheartedly agree! :D

Oh, that scene is _perfect_ for Dick!

I thought it came out pretty cool. :) I should make that into an icon, I think. *giggles*

Oooh! *makes a note to play with that site*

It's sooooo easy and fun! Of course you can do it to pictures of yourself as well, but on the whole my pictures of me don't look very...inspiring. :)

Oh I blatantly want those as posters!

[identity profile] mithen.livejournal.com 2009-01-21 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
I believe the site lets you order them as posters, too! Smart, smart site...

That is... pretty much all kinds of win.

Isn't it? And very fun, and very easy too! I was doing up my nieces and my parents' cat while I was at it, lol...

:O

That first one especially is total win.

The first one came out really well because it's the simplest of the lot, so the patterns are more dramatic. I was very pleased with how it went! It's a lot of fun...
