Zombify: Photoshop made easy (for zombies)


This has been around since the launch of the Zombieland web site promoting the movie. The flash app buried inside the site is a brilliant execution of UI. It takes many complex / abstract concepts of graphic tools and makes them usable – for the masses.

The first improvement – the controls are contained in one pane – no floating tools! Image import is flawless – enlarge, move, spin… The drag and drop effects have built in tools for scaling angling, etc. Each effect is created as a layer. LAYERS – the most loved and infuriating feature of Photoshop. Each effect (layer) has a transparency slide bar and a delete control!

The original image can also be easily adjusted for contrast, color, contrast, and saturation. I’m expecting that ‘saturation’ for most users of this site will be an exploration of what saturation means!

Incredible design taming some incredible complexity. Have you zombified yourself? Send us the picture!

BTW – yes, that’s me on a bad day. On top is my son’s frog ‘Frogger’ on an especially bad day!

Zombify yourself here!
