One of my favourite flickr users is The Decapitator from the UK. His raison d’être seems to be to subvert billboard ads around London and I love him for it.
I first heard of him when he decapitated Sarah Jessica Parker for the Sex and the City movie.

Carrie Bradshaw decapitated
He’s just uploaded some new photos from his latest prey, Halifax Mortgages.
I’ll never think of bank tellers in the same way again. I think this is the best way of culture jamming - instead of destroying or graffiting the billboards, he has his own style and he seems to put a lot of thought and work into each board.
You can see all his work at his Flickr stream - http://flickr.com/photos/the_decapitator/. He’s done some awesome posters for fashion, dance parties, DJs and others.
