Create paintings online

While searching around the internet, I bumped into Psykopaint, a website that lets you upload and paint over your photos. It's designed for people with "no skills" and who are "too lazy to study for several years." Ha! Choose from dozens of effects, plus brushes that let you paint in the style of famous masters. If you like what you've made, have it printed on a canvas. Here's a test where I painted on the right half of a photo I uploaded. If you find yourself bored silly someday, give it a try.
