Create Manga Style Avatar with FaceYourManga
August 11th, 2008 Posted in Cool Sites
FaceYourManga is an online Avatar creation tool. It allows you to create a Manga style avatar and express yourself online in a different fashion.
There is a wide range of facial features for you to choose from which will allow you to customize your avatar depending on your taste. You can select from a menu which feature you want to edit/change and choose from a library of Manga style features that will appear next to your avatar.
The creation process is very easy to perform. Registration is not required in order for you to start creating your Manga avatar. When you are finished with your creation, just hand them an email address and they will send your avatar in JPG format.

This is great! I just made up my avatar and it looks almost exactly like the yours (minus the Mike Tyson face tatoo
). LOL..the power of images. I didn’t even realize it until I came back to comment.

Chris: Great minds think alike
Rarst: Yeah it does that sometimes. Freezed my browser once when I tried to right click one of the functions. I don’t know if it’s still in beta, I guess there’s still a few bugs in the web app. Just try starting over again. Worked fine the second time I tried it.

Im going to make an avatar with this, it looks pretty great. I hope I don’t run into the same problems others are experiencing.

Hmm. Can you create avatar people like the site I linked to? Or are there just select sites that it works on?

Mr Squidoo: I’m sure that It’ll work out just fine for you.
Jason: No it does not create whole body avatar. As for creating a manga look alike of your self. You can choose from a wide range of hairstyles, eye shapes, lips etc to make the avatar resemble its owner. It’s a fun way of making an avatar. It actually hit Twitter like a storm. I can see a lot of Twitter users getting a faceyourmanga avatar.
BTW the site that you have linked is also quite interesting. I will have a closer look and maybe I’ll review it here at Orangeinks. Thanks for the suggestion.

@Raai29: It seems that FaceYourManga is down at the moment. Check again in a few hours. If you are having trouble with websites loading. You can change your DNS. Just access your network connection click properties and head to TCP IP settings and change the DNS to 4.2.2.1. Always worked for me. In this case their server is really offline so better check again in a few.
Hope that helps.
