Share the Scare

October 21, 2010 | Category: I'm a celebrator

It’s that time of year.  Time to act a fool.  Time to spruce up those social media avatars to reflect the Halloween season.

Let me show you how…

You start with a picture like this:5103661356 938129d855 Share the Scare

To achieve this desired look, you must:

1.  be sleep deprived and jet-lagged.

2.  have not showered in 2 days

3. PMS’ing.

4. have had your hair in a perpetual ponytail for at least 48 hours.

5. be in a really b*tchy mood.

Then you:

1. upload your picture to the *free* photo editing site, Picnik.

2.  apply some ghoulish features to your pic.  I used: OgreVision, VampiraScope, and Wounds. I added some cyber lipstick and mascara as well.

So?  Whatcha think?  Am I all set?

( In a Twilight sort of way, the after looks way better than the before, which is a whole other kind of scary)

Now it’s your turn.  Change your profile pic in the most frightening way possible.  Leave a link to your blog, twitter page, facebook page, or wherever.  I wanna see it.

Share the Scare!   Bwhahahahahahaahah….

    @kim: well, at least I’m now a friend of yours on Facebook. (assuming you accept me).

    And also, that pic of you is amazing. If that was me, I would never change it. You are beautiful.

    Love your pic. I modified my twitter pic, but it’s not as fab as yours. I’m feeling a bit round…

    I enjoy reading your blog! Thanks!
    I scared up this picture of me and my husband. I think we’ve never looked better. ;)
    My kids were completely terrified when I showed them though!
    Happy Halloween.

    How fun! I just spent a little time trying to ghoul-ify a photo of my hubby, but I don’t think it was a good one to work on…maybe later. ;)
