Futurama Head-In-A-Jar Creator

Futurama Head-in-a-Jar Creator App for iPhone
     For those of you who enjoy the popular cartoon series Futurama, you might want to give this free application a try.  It gives you the chance to create your own Futurama head in a jar, based on yourself, your friends, fictional characters or your own unique idea.
     There are 4 parts of this application (You will see this on the main boot screen).  You can watch fun Futurama videos, Visit the "Head Museum" or click "More" to visit the Facebook for this application, rate the application, view more apps from the creator and so no.  the naturally there is the "Get Started" button which will launch the head creator.
     Let's start by covering head creation, as that is the primary function for this application.
     First you choose your "Species".  Available are male, Female (Apparently these are two different species), robot (Why a robot head needs to be in a jar is beyond me) and Alien (Kif's head).
     Once you have your head you can choose from many different options for head shape, eyes, nose, hair, "extras", and a scene.  you also get to name your character.  Depending on what species you choose, and the head shape... You may not have all of the options available to you.  Also, different species have different bits to choose.  You can scroll through the options by swiping across the screen.
     When you are finished creating your character, click the "Done" button.  Your jar will fill with water and you will then be able to share it, send it to your photos, add to a contact (You will see that image when they call you), add to an exhibit (This is essentially creating a group/category for this creator.  Family, Friends, Official Characters" whatever you like), you can edit it or go to your museum (Where you can browse all of the heads you have made).
     About the head museum...  This is where you can either view all of the heads you've made by clicking the "My Heads" option, or view them by category assigned by clicking "My Exhibits".
  The "My Heads button will show a shelf (Or series of shelves) that will have all of the jars set upon it.  You can click the shelf of jars to view the larger version (As they are shown very small here).From the larger version of the shelf (Swipe to view the different jars) you can click any individual jar to share, add to contact, edit, etc.
     The exhibit allows you to view a list of all of your head categories.  Click the category you want to view and you will see any jars you have added to that exhibit.  It will display as it would in the "My Heads" section.  The difference is that you can view only the heads for that category.  Separate your friends from your family.  Separate official heads from original character heads.  This is especially useful if you find yourself making a lot of heads.
     I think this is a really fun application.  The graphics are really great, the app runs smoothly.  There are really fun sound effects through out the app and the fact that they have a videos section is a nice add on.  I really enjoyed playing with this.  I believe it's well worth the download.  And hey, it's free.  So what do you have to lose?  It's especially fun for Futurama fans, clearly.  But I think even people who've never seen the show might enjoy it.
