Okay, I was to do a self portrait of myself with this website, but hands a frickin' idiots and I failed horribly, as Menolly pointed out. :P ;)

So can I get a hand at this? I want to convert just the face of this picture (i'm on the left):

Having no artistic talent of my own at all, I'm probably not a good person to ask that question to, but I don't see why you couldn't.
Has anyone seen my keys?

Hahah! That's awsome! I like this idea.

Anyone who wants to try, I'll cut it down to size and wear it! After awhile I'll switch to a different one!

It's actually hard to make it look like anyone. . . the palette is so limited! Glad mine passed inspection enough to actually merit a wearing--no matter how brief. ;)

I think the limitation should make some good variations! Makes people think!

Since it's my big mouth that caused you to post this, I figured I may as well try and see what I could come up with. I truly have no talent for this type of thing though, but you may as well go look at it for the laugh.

My attempt

...sorry Balon...
