Kodak just created a very funny website, Make Me Super. The purpose is to grab face photo of yourself and put it on a super duper hero. You only have to choose the gender, your name (only works with common english names), upload your photo, adjust the face with their online software and your done.

It’s funny to share with your friends and you can also download the super hero poster and buy some merchadising with your super hero face.

It’s a nice idea of Kodak to promote some of their services.
