1. Turn yourself into a Superhero (or villain) with whatever you can find around the house. Set a timer for 10 minutes.
2. Take a picture.
3. Post it with the hash tag #10MinuteHero
Here is the latest greatest update to the G+ Heroes & Villains! These folks are truly awesome to put themselves out there for a bit of silliness. Err, I mean heroism! Special kudos to Scott D for being the first to suit up! Additionally, the fun turned into a side bet with Jo Lane and myself. I lost (again). I will be singing a song on video for Jo as my (and all of your) punishment.
BUT, the cool thing? We took the bet further and Jo got even more people to participate. My payment? $25 to a charity of her choice. Jo chose to match the amount and support St. Baldrick's and +Bliss Morgan's attempt to raise $5000 for cancer fighting (and, she says, to see Bliss shave all her hair off). Check out: http://www.stbaldricks.org/participants/Bliss
I am also announcing today that I will add another $1 for everyone who posts an entry (up to $100); that's an additional $20 so far. Thanks to +Kimberly Chapman for the inspiration to not just be silly.
See all the links at the bottom of this post. Stay tuned! 🙂

It's been a lot of fun! Since many of the pictures did not have feet or legs or, in a couple cases, most of the body, I had to get a little creative in Photoshop. 😉 Loving the smoke ninja effect.

I have forwarded this to a friend to dresses up as heroes for the charity work. Maybe he can get his crew/organization to post some picks and empty Scott's pocket of his cash. 😀

You did a great job adding legs / feet +Scott Cramer! This really has been a ton of fun! Commenting in character can be the best 😉

Yeah… You definitely get points for creativity. I would have been lost on how to do some of those!
BTW, I'm tagging up your picture… Stand by… :p

To be honest, they don't look like heroes or villains, more like people with an exceptionally bad sense of fashion.
All of these people are awesome (and of course I include myself).

To me, they look they belong in a Mystery Men sequel.

Thinking that Mini-Mister and Ninjana make obvious nemesis … along with Kitchen Aid and Kitchen Ninja.
The Outlaw, Spaghetti Midwestern, and Cow Girl might make an obvious team.

+Lise Bjerregaard Nielsen, that's not the length of my apron. That's the length +Scott Cramer has photoshopped. Go look at my old Halloween photos and you can probably find a photo with the whole apron. I'm on mobile so I can't really link.

Yup, +Melissa Bryan. It's the unofficial reason why he got assigned villain instead of hero. He's a constant disturbance to the rift. Harkness would be thoroughly intrigued.

I'm working on trading cards and back stories to the characters. If you have something special you want in yours, pm me.
Also, if anyone is interested in the cut-outs, the Photoshop file is available for download. Check the "Misc" folder. http://goo.gl/6uUZe

Is now a good time to mention that +David Mills wanted to be called The Oriental Impaler and (I quote) 'with [his] special weapon being The Package' ;P

Me? Tired of the humdrum out-of-the-box meals, high-fructose corn-syrup laden crap, and myth-ridden cooking instructions…I set out to right those wrongs. With the use of some simple gadgets and a pinch of kitchen science…we CAN make the kitchen a fun and exciting place again.

Great work +Scott Cramer it looks Awesome but where did the name Master Kung-Fu come from? I did not see that one as a suggestion? I agree with +Jo Lane that the Oriental Impaler suits my attempt much better. Also very good work on the Charity part of it. #10minutehero is a great success.
