It's What's Inside That Counts

Put throwaway lines like the one above to the test by combinging "asshole flag" technology with the latest image processing techniques.

Start with a database of fairly current images (say a photo ID of some sort).

Add the capability to fishbone or croissant the person, as in many "asshole flag" type suggestions.

Our image processing module then updates the image in the appropriate direction.

Pictue scene in a bar between two buddies:

I'm going to go over and buy her a drink

Dude, how desperate are you, she's a total dog

Yes, but I just looked at her Dorian Grey profile on my cellphone, she looks like a supermodel

Sort of 'Shallow Hal' but with a positive spin? I quite like it, too many people judge via looks, and miss-out on the beauty inside. Not that I'm ugly or anythin..no wait.

Yeah, dude, but she _looks_ like a total dog. Dude, you're way too deep. You're not a girl in disguise, are you?

Just noticed the Feb annotation.

I never understood why this idea didn't do better. I mean, people put mustaches on posters, don't they?

[confidential to moomintroll] btw, you need milk.
