'If Star Wars Was Real' is an amazing database of photoshopped Star Wars imagery. The idea behind the website is to take Star Wars characters and transpose them onto real life images to make them look like actual living things. For example, there is an image where a self portrait of Van Gogh with elongated ears and the work is now titled "Vincent Van Goghda."
Some of the images are pretty old, which makes the photoshopping even more incredible. A personal favorite is a black and white image of an Indian man holding a light saber. Truly for diehard Star Wars fans.
