I've been having too much fun with the Abi Station icon maker. Not content with making one of myself, I'm making them for friends too. The two I've done for thepunkpanther and helenkacan have been dead on. They look amazingly like them. I've been trying to make them for americanstd and electorprince but both of them are proving elusive. I finally found the right facial shape for Steve, which helps, but the face keeps coming out too feminine, which he emphatically isn't. I'll keep trying, though.

I'm thinking about going recruiting in San Diego. The place is definitely happening!

*Snort*. No it's not. Of course if you're comparing it to the Greater Sacramento Metro Area it is, but as it stands, Steve and I drive to Orange County for shopping and concerts because this town is so dead.

That icon maker is a delightful little toy! There are two other icon makers, linked off my User Info page, that you might also find fun.

I can't figure out how to use the German one, and I want to because I really like the faces it produces. Alas, I need one of my Germanophones on hand to do so.

I just flailed away at it till I figured it out. But it did take a while.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah, make me one, Kish! Cause' I suck at stuff like that!

I don't know what you look like! All the icons I've made are for people whose faces I either know well or have photos of.

You'll never succeed at capturing the awesome depth of my visage in so blunt a tool. If you can render an empty Holocaust cloak with it, it might serve as a metaphor. ^_-

Yes, I dabbled with it, and I, too, can't manage to eke one out that isn't almost a caricature.

I already do look like a cartoon, so for me it was easy. I couldn't find one that had eyes that look like yours, nor a good approximation for your facial shape or nose. I'll e-mail you what my results were, why not.

You did a better me than I could. [Even though it was only my first time trying - and I don't know what the up/down and right/left and stuff means.]

But I would be nice having one that is not from an Asian source, 'cuz then there should be more variety in hairstyles and clothing.

Still, hugs, hugs, hugs, hugs!!!!
Helenka, only an icon!

There's a German one that caprine links to on her info page (it's at the bottom). I don't understand German so that's a no-go with me.

I don't know what the left-right/up-down stuff means either and didn't use it.
