More Head-in-Hole Fun With Yearbook Yourself - Time Waster
Ever wonder what former U.S. President George Bush would have looked like as an early-80's high school senior? Well, wonder no more!
A few quick clicks with Yearbook Yourself and you can transform yourself into a horrendously coiffed teenager from 1950 to 2000. FYI before you head over: this one's a marketing gimmick for a group of malls, so the stores you see listed on the yearbook pages take you to badly-designed mall directory web pages.
Still, it's good for a laugh. Center and scale your image, rotate it if you need to, and you're good to go. Images with glasses are particularly amusing, as they tend to appear at a slight angle - giving your photo that hapless, disheveled look. And don't feel limited by the gender selection - go ahead and do the ol' switcheroo for even more photo fun!
I'd like it if the interface allowed you to go back and tweak your photo's position and scale, but you have to start over from scratch for now. The worst part of the whole experience: winding up on a year that actually looks the way you did. Oh, the humanity!

What a blast!!! By the way you do not have to start over with your pic. Just roll your pointer over the + symbol at the bottom of the picture and you can adjust to your hearts desire.

Pro tip, thanks Bryan! Obviously I was too busy giggling at my George H.W. Bush pics.

Too bad you can't save the whole yearbook. I registered and it only saved the current image to "my page", and then all the work I did tweaking the other years was lost. Was to piss off a visitor, guys.
Plus, the "download current photo" button did nothing for me.

Leave your disappointments aside, you can always click, "download" at the same page... It has some minor waiting included, but its worth it ;D pictures only take about 0,2Kb and they look even more promising with the touch of a "rustic" brush over the picture, it looks old.
