Be a Simpson character

http://www.simpsonsmovie.com/main.html

Go to 'avatar,' and Simpsonize yourself!

I'll post myself, once I get off of the damn chat.

I couldn't get my whole character to download.

btw, did you want us to try and make one that looks kinda like our real selves? If so, I'd better go back and edit my character. My hair isn't purple at the moment. lol

I'm confused. It tells me HOW to save, when the dialog box opens, but where the heck is the dialog box?

I tried this, after seeing an ad for it at Burger King.

I got about half way through and an error message popped up, my image failed to load because "some images don't work as well as others" of some such meaningless nonsense. Okay, I tried another photo, same thing. Third try, same thing.

I tried photos with different layouts and lighting, but ultimately they were all taken with the same camera, and since none of them work I assume it has to do with resolution, image size, some objective quality that I could fix, if they would tell me what it is.

You know, if they provided the requirements for the pictures up front, I wouldn't have wasted my time on three failed attempts.

Weird. This is what the Simpsonizer did to me: I look better as a Simpson than as a real live person!

You know, it might be fun to create Simpson's characters for other Cellarites. What you think they might look like if they were a Simpson.

This is fairly close, except that there weren't any teeshirt choices involving the Springfield Asylum.
