App Removes Bystanders From Pics

In another “never ceases to amaze me” moment, a company has created an app that will literally take out wandering pedestrians from your shot on your smartphone. As the video shows below, you set up a shot and then after taking the pic it will allow you to remove people or unwanted passing objects from the shot. According to the article “the app is presently still in the prototype stage, but a full version should be ready for a demonstration later this month, at the 2012 Mobile World Conference in Barcelona”. Check out these pics or see the video demonstration below.

Girls Dressed Like Cartoon Characters

Or, cosplay, if you would. These are all over the place and I found a nice collection of some that aren’t your typical girl cosplays. I especially liked the Helga one even though I hated that show. I think, however, that Cartman has to be the winner. Fat girls can cosplay too! Check out these and others over at Smosh Pit.

Chinese Fast-Food Knock-Offs

There’s a chicken place in New Brunswick, NJ called Kennedy Fried Chicken. The name on the restaurant is the same typeface as KFC and I have no idea how they never got a cease and desist. In China this is a common thing apparently. We’ve had some great knock-off items featured on the site before, but knock-off restaurants? And so blatant!

Awesome Game Boy/iPod Mod

I stumbled across a very ingenious (albeit old) mod that combines an iPod with a Game Boy. The guy hollowed out an old Game Boy and the iPod fits perfectly into the screen with a little help of some padding on the inside. He even went as far as to make the Game Boy’s buttons control the iPod. I realize that today the iPod itself in this version is outdated so this is kinda like having a hi-fi stereo that looks like a Victrola, but it’s still neat.
