She’s an Angel…of Crushes

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Today’s Cartoon of the Day is Sue. You’ve probably heard of an angel of love, but have you ever heard of an angel of crushes? That’s Sue’s job- she inspires infatuation, mild flirtation, and fleeting glances all across the world. Considering how she looks, it’s easy to understand why- a pink top keeps her sleek and cute, while glittering pink shoes make sure that she’s not only giving out sparks, but inspiring them as well. The angel wings don’t hurt either. If you want to make your own crush angel, go ahead and cartoonize it today!

Giving Your Cartoon Orders

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

Occasionally in the MACY offices,  we’ll here someone shout “I’m sorry” at their computer. Why do they do it?

Sometimes, people develop  a sentimental attachment to their cartoons. They begin to think that their cartoon is real and by changing anything about it, their cartoon will get upset with them.

You have to remember: your cartoon is a changing and constantly evolving thing! If you change it, it won’t be upset. It will be greatful! That’s what you’re supposed to do.

So go ahead and do it- change a cartoon today!

Watch Out, Hawaii

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

Today’s Cartoon of the Day is Derek. A croc wearing frat boy from Southern New Jersey, Derek has always dreamed of moving to Hawaii and making it big as a hula girl. If he had rhythm and were a girl, he might be able to actually do it. Even if Derek doesn’t achieve his dreams, at least he’ll look good with a lei, purple crocs, and headphones constantly blasting his patron saint, Jack Johnson. Derek will be saying “Aloha” soon, but nobody knows if it will mean hello or goodbye. Want to make your own cartoon frat boy? Then get started- we’ll bring the keg!

Keeping the Drive to Improve

Monday, April 27th, 2009

One of the key things about making a cartoon? Realizing you can always remake it.

When you make a cartoon, it’s not like other works of art. It can always change and get better. Because cartoons are easy to alter with a click, they can be far more versatile than anything else. That means you can always make a cartoon better.

Over the decades, the old hands and MakeACartoonYou.com offices have remembered one thing: when you make a cartoon, you haven’t finished your journey.

You’ve only just begun it.

Won’t you start your cartoon journey today?

Feline Fifi Loves Sandals

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

Today’s Cartoon of the Day is Fifi. Obsessed with felines and all their ways, she dresses up when she’s feeling particularly catty. The only problem? A true cat suit would include a pair of killer leather boots. But Fifi is a little scared of covering up her pretty toes. Fortunately, she’s dashing enough that nobody notices. Want to make your own cartoon cat? Go ahead- just promise you’ll wear boots.
