Plenty of tabletop gamers use Google+. There’s the Roleplaying Games community and others as well as site pages like +Geek Native too.
One of my favourite features of Google+ is Auto Awesome. Recent reviews of graphic novels or art books make use of Auto Awesome’s ability to turn photographs into videos. You can see an example of this at the bottom of this The Art of Alien Isolation review. This week Google’s added a new Auto Awesome feature. You can “Halloweenify” your images with either scary or fun filters.
What if some cheeky gamer took 12 pictures of the Monster Manual and asked Google to Halloweenify them?

Google+ picks the Halloweenification filter randomly. Different filters produce different sizes of images. While this experiment is hindered by my own poor photograph skills and dodgy smartphone camera I think Google does a great job at finding the faces of these monsters and creatures.
Have you taken the Halloweenify filter to any of your gaming photos? Why not link to them in the comments below and share with the community.
