Tumblr 101: Tips And Tricks To Get Started
Turbanizer: You, But With a Turban! - Time Waster
Yet another head-in-hole type photo manipulator, Turbanizer takes your image and allows you to overlay any of several fashionable turbans. The simple interface provides the granular controls you'll need to create an oh-so-convincing composite: it'll scale your photo or the turban as well as tweak the color intensity of your fabulous new headgear.
With more than 120,000 beautiful creations to date, the public is clearly embracing the opportunity to try on a turban without making the lengthy plane ride to the Middle East. Why, Turbanizer's not only fun, it's also environmentally friendly! There's even support for your Flickr and Facebook photos (though laziness and the desire to produce the screenshot above necessitated a Google image search, in my case).
As a bonus, Turbanizer even displays interesting facts about turbans while you wait for their Flash application to load. Give it a try yourself - and as-salaam alaykum!

"Give it a try yourself - and as-salaam alaykum!"
You do know they are referring to Indian turbans, which are worn by nearly all religions.
Sorry to reign on your parade dude.

S'ok, I gots my umbrella. Also, I just wanted to throw a somewhat regional "peace be with you" in. Please feel free to provide me a more appropriate alternative!

Sorry to rain on your reign, but you got caught in a homonym trap.

Namaste would be more appropriate in this case.

Lee, आप शांति के साथ हो
I'd try to find a latinate version of it but I can't.

Err.. #4 translates to "You are with Shanti (sha-an-tea)". Shanti does mean peace (in Hindi) but it is also a common feminine name in India. You could just say "Namaste (Nuhm-ah-stey)" which roughly interprets to "I honor the Spirit in you which is also in me".
Cheers from India.
Thank you, come again :D

Greetings from India. That is a turban from Rajasthan, a state in north India, for anybody who cares. A lot of people in Punjab, Rajasthan and Haryana wear turbans though the turban has come to be associated with people from Arab countries in recent times.
