Remember MagMyPic? The site that puts your face on a magazine cover? FaceinHole.com is even more fun! Instead of being limited to magazine covers, you can appear in a variety of real life print campaign, from fashion editorials to political images.
They have a variety of fun backgrounds to choose from. Your face could appear on Kate Moss' body in the exact same image as was used for her Dior campaign or as Jessica Alba on a movie poster for Sin City. You could also be cast as a character from Grey's Anatomy, post with Alvin and the Chipmunks as, yes, a chipmunk too. There are hundreds of templates to choose from, and hours of fun!
