Want to see a life-size painting of yourself or anyone else showcased in the portrait gallery of famous museums around the world where visitors flock in huge numbers to admire those masterpieces ?
They are not just wild imaginations - all you need is a digital picture that you want to exhibit in the Museum Gallery and Museumr, a brilliant tool that will automatically place your image in the museum display like the one you see above.
Museumr is like a Flickr Toy where you pass the URL of the Flickr picture or any photo on the web, choose a Museum Gallery style and the application will create an awesome piece of art displayed in a real museum gallery complete with admiring visitors.
PS: The above portrait is my son Google superimposed by Museumr on a famous painting called The Last Judgment, by Peter Paul Rubens. It's displayed in The Alte Pinakothek - one of the oldest and most outstanding art galleries in the world, focusing on European paintings from the 14th-18th centuries.

This is an excellent tool to fool people. There should be more templates though.
