Hello,

I would like to request an Episode about Age Morphing. That means, making old people look young, young people look like children, children look like young people and young people look like old people. I know it's quite a lot, but I know that it is doable, because a recently deceased German Photoshop artist once morphed my dad to resemble a baby (very hilarious picture that we have hanging right next to a picture of me as a real baby). Well anyway, I know the basic principles of manipulating images in such a way that body, head and background can be swapped, which I wanted to do in order to put my head onto a Starfleet uniform. Or rather, a guy in a Starfleet uniform. And, yes, I am a Star Trek nerd, in case you're wondering now. But back to topic, I just think it looks stupid with my still rather infantiloid head structure, and so on. Now I've played around with a load of tools, like liquify and such, to make my bones look a bit more adult, but I ended up looking like some distorted caricature of Gerhard Schröder (Germany's old chancellor) and not like me as an adult. At least, I hope I won't look like a distorted caricature of Gerhard Schröder when I'm an Adult.

Oh yes, and also, my gran recently lost a childhood picture of her and her family, and she's quite sad about that. I've taken a picture of the exact spot in our local park where the picture was taken, and also scanned a picture of my great gran and great grampa, as well as taking a picture of my gran. My friend's parents (and his little sister ;)) kindly posed in their Sunday suits to recreate the scene, and all I'll have to do is stick my ggran's and ggrampa's onto their bodies, as well as morphing my gran's head to childhood size, contures, and structure and sticking it onto the baby sister. Not to forget moving that collage into the park photograph. But now the big deal: How do I go about morphing my gran's head to childhood features?
