# my brother went to a fancy dress party last year as Doc Brown
so I helped him with a prop, tried to reconstruct the famous 'vanishing head/body' photo:

but I couldn't remove the warping on the left hand side where the photo in the film is bent towards the camera as it's held in the guitar strings

# I don't have a good enough paint package to un-squash just part of the image correctly
you can see the left hand side of Marty's brother is compressed horizontally and stretched vertically

# paintshoppro 5
looked at newer versions and photoshop but the newer versions removed functions I used and added a load more of complicated crap I probably would never use, and photoshop just seemed alien

# yup
it was a rush job so there are some imperfections where the guitar strings were removed

# Heh
Just did a quick search, there are replicas but I doubt if any are are high a quality as this.
Be prepared to have it copied by naughty people.
