Go Green Pakistan is a Pakistani campaign on social media networks over the Internet whose purpose was to change the display pictures of every Pakistani and the people who are friends of Pakistan to a green image. People across the planet send them their images and the team at Go Green Pakistan edits those images manually and puts a green background with Pakistan's flag behind the faces.
I can not photoshop images and at the moment I do not have a photoshop setup with me. So, I tried to turn pictures green in my own way using only Microsoft PowerPoint. I googled to grab few green images and after few attempts I was able to produce photos some of you may think are impossible to do with a simple tool like PowerPoint. But Microsoft Office is amazing powers. Last time it amazed me when I was able to produce a departmental newsletter using Microsoft Word 2007 only.
The first image is of Dr. Saquib Sarfraz, my mentor. I had to dig through 900 images of DICE 2009 to find an image in which he could exclusively be located with minimal clutter in background. I mixed his photo with three green images. Adjusted brightness, contrast, added some effects and got something to share with you.
Here's the same snap with a little variation.
Below is the results of experiment on one of my own photos.
