My family "Simpsonized"

So this is what my family would look like "Simpsonized" according to http://simpsonizeme.com/ . You upload a closeup of your face to the program and it churns out a reasonable Simpson-esque facimile of you.You do have to tweak them a little but I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out! They were all pretty much the same no matter what picture I used (although I could get my Dad with varying degrees of stubble and sometimes the program would pick up on glasses and sometimes it wouldn't) except for L's pic. The one below came from a pic from when we were in PEI whereas this one came from a less scruffy pic. Ah the many faces of L. [NOTE: Later I tried another pic of me and it came out with the picture to the right, pretty different! Also I figured out how to add a nose piercing. The program definitely had the most trouble with little C and my pics.] Anywho, it's all an advertising ploy (see commercial on YouTube here) from Burger King (sucks, blech! also their mascot creeps me out) and the Simpson's Movie (awesome, loved it!) but it's pretty neat anyway. I don't mind being exposed to advertising if I get something cool out of it, better than a normal commercial.

Small sidebar rant: Remember when there were no commercials at the movies? Most people do because it really has only taken hold in the last 7 or 8 years or so. What a racket eh? People actually PAY to watch these commercials and no one can change the channel. At least in the beginning the commercials were cooler or higher budget than the ones on TV, but now they are exactly the same and you see the same ones every time you go. Maybe it's a response to the ability that many of us have developed to selectively ignore advertising in our daily lives (it's because there is so much of it that our advertising receptors are overloaded). To be effective, advertisers need to get us all when we are: 1. paying attention to a large surface that can be advertised upon, and b. in a good mood. Where else but at the movies and at major sporting events do you get that kind of opportunity? I guess what I'm saying is you can't blame advertisers for wanting to do it, but I do anyway. Also, advertising is better with the Simpson's...and in German (since I got such good feedback from the last time).
