Who
Says You Have to be 17 to See a Rated R Movie?
Have you ever really wanted to go with some friends to a rated R
movie but either the person selling the tickets or the attendant
taking the tickets asked you for ID? And what do you know, if you're
under age 17, no movie for you. Well this just doesn't need to be
the case. A $100 fake ID is not a necessity either. This is how you
make your own fake high school ID. I've used this card for years
now, and it always works.
First download the template. I made this in Adobe Photoshop, but if
you don't have Photoshop, you can still make this card, it's just a
little bit harder.
Here
is the Photoshop template (right mouse click and hit "save
target as" to save to hard drive)
Here
is the (if you don't have Photoshop) jpeg template (right mouse
click and hit "save target as" to save to hard drive)
To
work with these files you will need to know a little bit about Adobe
Photoshop or whatever photo editor you wish to use if you don't have
Photoshop and you download the jpeg. If you can't use your photo editing
program, search for a tutorial or read the help file.
First
you are going to want to get a good picture. A headshot in front of
a blue backdrop works best and looks the most professional. You can
get such a picture by scanning in a driver's license photo, school
ID, passport, or if you want, you can use a digital camera and take
the photo yourself. Load the picture into the computer and then
paste it into the template. You will then need to resize your
picture to fit in the space provided for the picture. Be sure to
leave the border around it for a clean and professional look.
Now
it is time to decide on your name. That's up to you. If you want to
use your real name, fine. I personally like to put a fake name on
the card just to be safe though. Type that in where it says to.
In the Photoshop template you can just click on the text with the
text tool to bring up the window to modify the text. For the jpeg,
you can manually erase the "name here" and type in your
name. To keep the font uniform, use "Bookman Old Style"
font.
If
you want, you can change grade, birth date, and student ID number, but it isn't critical... unless of course a lot of people
start using this template, then it might be wise to change the
specifics. Once you are done, print it out on good paper (the glossy
kind works great) and go to staples or some other office supply
store to get a pack of self-laminating ID protectors (they basically
just use adhesive to seal). Cut your printed ID so it looks good and
then put it in the laminating sheet. Seal it and then cut the edges
so it looks like a handy little ID card. Be sure not to cut the laminate
too close to the print paper because the lamination will not stick if
you do.
Congratulations,
you now have your own fake ID. Now don't try to get alcohol with
this card, because its pretty hard to make a vendor believe a 21
year old has a high school ID for identification. You never have to
worry again, however, about not getting into a rated R movie... I'm
sure there are other reasons you may want a fake ID. Have fun.
