Very Good (And Very Bad) Pumpkins
Some people carve pumpkins with simple faces. Scott Cummins creates portraits in pumpkin.
Some people drown their carved pumpkin. I suppose drowning your pumpkin might be a good way to get some use out of it if you made serious mistakes while carving. Of course, in an age when you can use fancy computer software to size and print your own carving designs there is really very little excuse to mess up a pumpkin's face—unless you enjoy doing that sort of thing on purpose.
If all this cutting and hacking is a bit too gory for you, consider a painted pumpkin. That last link even has a picture of a pumpkin painted to look like Hello Kitty. Now, that's scary.
