Do I Have A Cartoon Personality?

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

So- you want to make a cartoon of you- what exactly does that mean?

It may make you wonder if you have a cartoon personality. When a lot of us think about cartoons, we imagine wild and crazy animation- life taken to the extreme. For a lot of people, that just isn’t how they are. We’re here to tell you it’s ok.

Having a cartoon doesn’t mean that you’re acting crazy, silly, or weird. It means that you’re acting like yourself. So if you live an animated life, then sure, your cartoon will be animated too. But if you’re a reserved person, you can make your cartoon the same.

Making a cartoon you isn’t about expressing a cartoon- it’s about expressing yourself. Remember that when you make your cartoon, and you’ll be sure to have one that’s worth watching, no matter what personality it has.

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

Today’s Cartoon of the Day is Roscoe. Judging by his messy red locks, funky necklace, and everpresent flip flops, you wouldn’t imagine Roscoe to hold down a steady job at a top hospital. But he does, and he does it well once he changes out of his purple shirt. But just because Roscoe is an amazing pharmacist doesn’t mean that he gives up his identity. Every day he commutes to work on his jet ski. With wet hair and a smile on his face, Roscoe shows up in style. Make your own cartoon avatar today- it’s the wave everybody’s catching.

Friday, October 24th, 2008

Today’s Cartoon of the Day is Maribelle. In her dainty white dress, Maribelle may look like a soft spoken girl. The clucker next to her doesn’t help. But, in reality, Maribelle is anything but chicken. She stares down anyone in her way with cobalt blue eyes and a killer smile on her face. If you want to make cool avatars, you can- just make sure you’re as brave as Maribelle is (despite the chicken that she loves).

What Exactly Is the “Cartoon Lifestyle”?

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

You may have noticed that we at MakeACartoonYou.com love to mention the “Cartoon Lifestyle.” You may have also noticed that we mention it a lot. Sure, it’s a little silly. But when we talk about cartoon life, we do have something in mind.

The cartoon lifestyle is a lifestyle where you can be yourself, without all the obstacles. Too often in real life something gets in the way of us truly being ourselves. It might be weather, money, age, or just the fact that we’re used to one thing and unwilling to change. With a cartoon, none of that has to hold you back. You can look, act, and feel any way you want without having to worry about all the stuff that gets in the way.

The cartoon lifestyle is life as you want to live it. There’s nothing to keep you from being who you want to be. And, with luck, that can translate to your real world lifestyle too.
