MorphThing is a cool website which helps you to combine two people faces and create a new figure having all facial characteristics from the uploaded pictures. It is a free and simple process that anyone can do in a matter of minutes with a very funny result. You’ll never know how the final figure will look like and it’s always a surprise.
All you need to do before starting to morph things is to create an account on the website. After that you will follow several easy guided steps to combine your favorite images. You won’t need any graphic design knowledge or to know how to work with complex programs similar with Adobe Photoshop. And there is also no maximum image size requirement.

To morph two uploaded images you have to prepare them, as i said earlier, by placing small green dots on specific face points, indicated by the guide, used to define each the face characteristics. You will start with the upper point of the face, continuing to the bottom, and placing dots on the eye, nose and hair margins.
MorphThing advices you to choose the two pictures with people looking in front, preferably with the mouth shut, and having the same head position, these to avoid unpleasant results.
Pictures also should better have 300 x 400 pixels to minimize distortion, and you should try to find faces with no eye glasses, heavy makeups, cigarettes or other things.

The morphing process will always be a fun thing to play with in your free time, and consists of distorting an image while fading it into the second one by marking key points and vectors on both images.

There are other websites that perform morphing of two images and MorphThing is one of the best and friendly.
