Photoshop as an aid for breaking out of conceptual ruts

We all know how a well-executed surrealist painting or clever optical illustration can force the mind into unexpected places...well, this website does the same thing with Photoshop, emphasizing combinations of animals that are frequently jarring in their "rightness" and subtlety. Admittedly, some are not so subtle, but all are nicely done and I found myself in a sort of daze after looking at a few pages of them. I would be interested in your comments and ideas for utilization. Do you know of more sites like this?

That's the best one I've found. Some of those are fantastic. But what happened to the quality control lately? Some of the more recent ones, like multiple-lips-lady on the main page, are really sub-par.

http://www.Memepool.com is a great place to find weirdness like that.
As is http://del.icio.us/

Interesting to say the least. Honestly, I found some of them extremely disturbing.

This isn't really a photoshop thing, but this site shows good examples of what you can do with your pictures using flash in a subtle manor. Autum and Spring are my favorites.

Metafilter.com often lists good photoshop links, and when you're feeling silly, you can't beat Something Awful's photoshop phridays.

Heh, thats how people look after one hit of LSD. You should hear them speak too.

Ah! the joy of subtle animal traits in people faces and psychedelics.
