A more fun picture thread: Photoshop yourself into pop-culture

This should be fun. One note: a lot of people used yahoo in the last pic thread and it didn't seem to work too well or too often. If you can find something else, give it a shot.

So,

Here's me as Jesse Custer from Preacher.

And here's me as the Master Chief from Halo.

Whatcha got?

Well, what I don't got is permission to view your pictures.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

It works for me if I copy and paste the link, or drag it, rather than clicking.

Grrrrr...they worked last night, I tripled checked them to make sure before I posted. I even found a free hosting site that claimed to allow hotlinking and unlimited views.

I'll be back when I find a better site to host them on, or if anyone wants to make suggestions here that would be cool.

Cut and Paste the URL until I find a new host. That site claims to allow hotlinking but it's obviously not working right now.

Okay, I used that imageshack, as well, thanks for the link. I only have one that is an actual Photoshop, though.

I don't know why I did this, either

I never answered this, did I? No, mine is Image4u.org. Usually it's pretty reliable, but I haven't been able to get through to it in the last couple of days.
