If you have not created a cartoon or animation of yourself as an elf, Santa or trekker, then here is your chance. Make a fun avatar for use on your website or send an e-card to a family member. These are fun, but check them out completely before using with students. Some sites contain characters in skimpy outfits. In addition, be careful of some of the ads that are used with these web sites. Get yourself ready for James Cameron’s sequel and see what you would look like in the cartoon world! If you know of other sites, please add the URL to the comment section below.

Thanks for this list. I played around with a few of them. Can’t wait to try the rest.
I love this list! I’ve seen more classrooms using the saved avatars as their fun ‘signatures’ on online student products. Thanks for putting this list together for more cool sites to use.
Awesome resources, Robin. Thanks so much for sharing. Power’s off but generator’s running, and I’m checking out your links. Thanks so much for sharing great resources.
Thanks for the great list, Robin. My students really enjoyed using Avatar Portrait Maker this year. (I have also put my own kids in Jib Jab.) This list will give us many new possibilities to explore in the future!
