Squirl's Nest

This could be a good Halloween mask

A number of people have been using this transforming site lately. I found it at Susie's. You just need to take a picture of yourself and put it on this site to see some interesting transformations. you can't save but you can do a screen capture and paste it into a graphics program.

This was my favorite of my transformations.

LOVE it! Did your other ones turn out well?

Now, all I need to do is find a pic of me somewhere online--my brother may have one on his site...

Effie, I didn't save any of the others because they were just a little too ugly or weird. I don't have as good a sense of humor about myself as my sister does. :-)

You really need a digital camera. They make this stuff really easy.

That's a cool transformation. It looks similar to the one Susie posted at her place. I really need to try this (in my alleged 'free time'...HA!).

Secret word: dsimg...sounds like "this image", a reference to your photo!

Wow, that turned out great!

I particularly liked my cavewoman looking image.

squirl, you're so cute! But we knew that already. This must be the "mucha" one, I liked that best, too. The others did very weird things to noses and eyes. I think what I like best about the "mucha" is how warm the colors look, almost glowing. Of course, we look warm and glowing even WITHOUT mucha . . .

Hi Ladybug, so glad to see you around. :-)
This one looks a lot like Susie's because we both picked the same artist, Mucha. I wish you really did have a little free time to play with things like this. You know, like dis image, tee hee.

Sierrabella, thanks! Cavewoman image? Did you try this and do the ape face?

Susie, thanks. The baby one was the very weirdest. I love what the Mucha does to the eyes. We are already so warm and glowing there's just not much more that Mucha could do. :-)

Great piccie, it's a good little program. We had some fun with that program last night. I make one ugly man lol.

Waaaah! I can't make it work -- I guess my PC isn't high-tech enough, or doesn't have the right driver, or 5-iron, or putter or something. So, I can't play with my face... I'm stuck with it the way it is. But I really like yours!! It's very pretty.

August, thanks! Isn't that thing fun? Um, yeah, that's why I didn't post any of my other pictures. :-)

Hi, Eclectic. Looks like we posted at the same time. There's a driver on that page. Did you download it? I hope you can get it to work for you. It sure is fun.

And thank you. I wish I looked more like that picture. :-)

Oooooh, I didn't see this one last night. Love the Mucha rendering; that's my fave one of me, too. Do that Mucha that you do-cha. Or something.

Yeah, the baby picture is FReaky. Teenager and masculinize looked awfully similar for me.

This one kinda looks like your face in a tree. What were those tree creatures in Lord of the Rings? Yeah... lesseee... I know the one was Tree Beard. You could be, um, not comin' up with much here but Tree Lady.

neato.

You mean an Ent? Just cause of the extra lines--I think!

Holy crap--look at the word I have to type:

Bucky, you could be el joker. Yeah, the Mucha is cool.

Danielle, you're talking about Ents. I loved the Ents. There is a weird wood (shut up, people) quality to that picture. I like it. Thanks!

Effie, tee hee we commented at the same time. But look at the word I got.

That is pretty cool. Are you gonna post the others?

Blogger Squirl said...

Kranki, the others were too ugly to save. I liked this one so I kept it. Did you try it?

Well I love it. . . I did mine but couldn't find a way to save it. The monkey one creeped me out and a few others as well.

Thanks, Kitty!

Nanina, that one is creepy. Ugh! In order to save mine I had to push the print screen button on my laptop. Then I went to the free Paint software that's there if you have Windows. Then I used the select button to make a square around the part I wanted and saved it as a jpg. Good luck if you try it. :-)

I tagged you this time. You can't be out of town every time I get tagged. hehe

OK, I downloaded everything at the site I could find to download, but I can't get it to work. I wonder if there's federal funding or other assistance available for the "reasonably bright but dumb as a post when it comes to computers" -type citizen.

tshsmom, got it and I will get to it.

Eclectic, I don't know why you can't get in there. That sucks.

Kitty is that always the answer?

Mr B, got your e-mail. Thanks!

Yes! the Ents!
