I’m not sure how one would develop photos after the world was destroyed, but apparently someone figured it out.

Steve McGhee created these photo-realistic Photoshop creations, depicting the possible realities of the dreaded 2012 apocalypse. You know, the one that homeless dude on the corner is always ranting and raving about. I love how that first photo features people gingerly walking the streets like nothing is happening. You’d think there’d be some sort of panic. But I guess it’s just another day in the city for New Yorkers.

Sometimes realism isn’t exactly what we want in our video games. We want to escape, not be hassled by the reality of… reality. Cracked.com hosted an awesome Photoshop contest, encouraging  their users to come up with ways to make video games just a tad more realistic, hence somewhat less playable. Some of the results were absolutely genius.

Here are a few of our favorites, but their are a whopping 27 of these photos over at Cracked.

If my school bus looked like this I might have actually gone to school more than half of the time. Or at least would have ridden the bus to the school before running off to do my own thing. Hey man, I had important things to do. Don’t judge.

Movie franchises have become pretty ridiculous. I mean, there are like five Bring It On movies. How many damn American Pie movies have their been?

Worth1000 takes on the future of film franchises with their “Future Films” Photoshop contest. Check out a few of our favorites after the jump.

There’s nothing that can’t be made more exciting by adding robots and aliens. That definitely includes boring, old vintage postcards.

Flickr user Frano Brambilla uploaded a set of manipulated photos, featuring vintage post card scenes with a little added zesty flavor of sci-fi. There’s nearly 30 of these shots over at Flickr.

I grew up with the Peanuts, even if they were way before my time. My dad had all of his old Charlie Brown comic strip books and I read through all of them hundreds of times. So, I was sort of well acquainted with Charlie Brown as a kid.

Tim O’Brien’s untooned Charlie Brown shows what the wishy-washiest bald kid in the world would look like if he were a living, breathing person. The result, although terrifying, is ultimately just what you would expect. Good grief.

Those jackasses over at Boing Boing Gadgets have done it again. Posted a rad picture with no description. Look, is this really a camera with a damn garden growing out of the lens? It seems entirely plausible. Then again, it could be Joel photoshopping his pubes into sprouts.

Update: Now with more Nazi flavah!

Sometimes, a mustache can be a person’s calling card. In fact, the facial hair itself can become more famous than the poor mustached man. In these instances, the mustache and the man are probably of equal value. I must admit, I’m jealous of mustaches of such caliber.

With the powers vested in us by Photoshop, we introduce five six of the most famous mustached men in history, de-mustached.

Why pirate Adobe’s software when you can just use their brand and image without permission? Exactly my point. That’s clearly what the creator of these Creative Suite pillows had in mind. Instead of calling it an “Illustrator pillow” or a “Photoshop pillow,” this site chose to say “Blue Pillow with ‘Ps’ Lettering.” Trickery at its finest.

$80 for the whole set, $15 a pop clearly. Not the worst deal, but not the greatest.

Photoshop has this neat little tool which allows you to grab a selected color from pretty much any image you want. Does that photo of an apple have that perfect red you’ve been looking for? The Color Picker by Jinsun Park allows you to grab any color, from any source, at any time and draw with that selected color, using a special hybrid of RGB ink.
