1. Because some day you might be invited to a high school reunion when you’re NOT looking so hot. Photoshop head-transferance skills provide you the option to pursue PLAN P- in which you send the organizer a note that goes something like this:
Dear Marsha,
Sadly I will not be able to attend the 20th high school reunion due to pressing concerns brought on by my vast wealth and prestige. However, I am attaching a recent self portrait so that you know what I look like these days. Feel free to print out several poster-sized copies to hang around the reunion.
Cheers,
Jenny
2. Because it’s never a good idea to go into a major hair change without a bit of foresight…
Red is actually kinda fun… but only with black leather pants and killer abs.
Black… not so much. We’ll leave that to Catherine Zeta Jones.
3. Because you can’t pick your family, but sometimes you wish you could. Less than stellar relations are no longer a problem… with Photoshop you can create a NEW family whose portrait will look stunning above the mantel.
You have to understand, CJ, the Angels were my family. The best family I could ask for.
4. Because you wouldn’t want your children to know THE TRUTH about how you spent your younger years (knitting and sipping tea? Come ON!) With Photoshop, your history is yours for the making! Goodbye boring momma, hello fab new me!
This is mommy rock climbing, before you were born.
And this is when I won Miss America.
And THIS is when I was really into body building.
Ahh, the memories.
5. Because while a middle-aged mommy blogger up in Seattle might be a little bit blah, you’re sure as heck gonna sit up and take notice when you see that blogger lady’s profile picture that looks like THIS:

Yes, it’s true. Due to begging, pleading, and otherwise hysterical mobs of readers the likes of which haven’t been seen since Beatles mania*, I have decided to share my magical knowledge of photoshop head-transferance with you. Coming soon to a blog near you… Wait for it… wait for it…
*By “begging, pleading, and screaming hysterical mobs of readers the likes of which haven’t been seen since Beatles mania,” I mean a few people have requested it.

You’re fabulous and funny! What a combo. Love your blog.

Okay, I’ve got to learn/buy photoshop.
Do I have to take a class? {she asks whining}
June 23, 2007 at 8:34 am
That was hysterical!
June 23, 2007 at 11:50 am
These are great! :)
June 23, 2007 at 1:42 pm
Sign me up! I want to be a hot pole dancer, or a rock climber! :-)

I love this.
My dad always used to tell me and my brothers and sister that he was tarzan and my mum was Jane when we were very, very small.
We believed him for quite a long time… (not anymore though)
I’d love to mock up a photo for my mum’s 60th.
June 23, 2007 at 3:32 pm
Too funny!
June 23, 2007 at 4:14 pm

Laughing hysterically! Love the Wonder Woman!
June 23, 2007 at 4:28 pm
You absolutely crack me up, Bananas! I can’t even pick a favorite — they all made me laugh.
June 23, 2007 at 4:37 pm
Love these…
I use to do this all the time in college but you have definitely mastered it! I will need practice, practice, practice!
June 23, 2007 at 5:56 pm
heehee, loved that! I sk*rt’d you! :D
June 23, 2007 at 6:23 pm
That is hysterical!! I didn’t even know you could do all that with photoshop. I can’t wait for the tutorials to begin!
Great blog and thank you for the giggles.
June 23, 2007 at 7:52 pm
Good lord this is hilarious. I’m going right now to get me some photoshop.
June 24, 2007 at 3:30 am
This would be great for making hilarious personalized greeting cards.
June 24, 2007 at 4:24 am
I told you that you should do a Photoshoppy tutorial! Oh oh oh…I can’t wait!
I wonder…is it any easier to photoshop a bald woman’s face onto another body????
June 24, 2007 at 5:28 am
I am soooo learning how to do this. Would it be wrong to put my red head on Diana Ross’s body?
June 24, 2007 at 6:55 pm
Oh my gosh, the Miss American is hilarious!
You got skillz!
June 24, 2007 at 7:41 pm
That is too cool. I know a little bit of Photoshop. Think I’d look good atop Halle Berry’s bod. Just might try it.
June 24, 2007 at 7:43 pm
I saw this in TheGoodBlogs, you are freaking hilarious! And quite Photoshop-talented, I might add :)
I faved your blog on Technorati, and I tried to add the post to sk*rt, but your sk*rt this button links to the blogger.com homepage for some reason.
June 25, 2007 at 7:13 pm
Yup. I think I just peed myself. This is so stinking hilarious. And now I wanna learn..
June 25, 2007 at 7:13 pm
This is hilarious! I LOVE it!!

How liberating.. the world is ours for the faking!

Fantastic post, Thank you for the afternoon laugh.
June 27, 2007 at 1:24 am
Sounds like good reasons to me. I best go photo shop myself.
June 27, 2007 at 1:52 am
The kidlings are supposed to be sleeping and I am laughing hysterically to myself. TOO FUNNY! I need a class schedule!

This may be the funniest thing I have seen in a while!! BRAVO!!
January 4, 2008 at 5:40 pm
Hysterical! I definitely need to give this a try.
January 5, 2008 at 4:56 pm
So funny! I’m off to put my head on Pam Anderson’s boobs-I mean body.
June 1, 2008 at 10:09 pm
Too funny! I’ll have to try that myself!
August 21, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Ohh this is awesome! My wife uses photoshop a lot for various things around her site. PS really rocks. You are very good at “transformations”, as I can see.
October 11, 2008 at 2:46 pm
Brilliant, yeah Photo Shop seems like the way to go, we can become anything we wish. When I was young to get these types of pictures we had to take a picture next to a page mould where we would put our head. Its hard to understand but it was a big thing to have your picture with another body. Technology rocks, thanks again Kweezel.

Hahaha nice
May 12, 2009 at 3:49 pm
Very Amusing :)

Interesting – As a novice snapper I still feel swamped by the amount I still have to learn. However, the more i read, the more i learn. Thanks for helping me along.
December 3, 2009 at 4:26 pm
That was so funny!! I haven’t laughed that much in a long time!! You are awesome!
