Cartoonize.net

This site is awesome for being goofy in the classroom. A possible use of this site could be to use the cartoonized pictures of the students to make a home-made or class-made storybook with their faces all represented. The site has a few advertisements on it, which is a drawback. Also, the "picture with celebrities" option is hard to match up properly because you can't shrink the picture or move it around to adjust it and make it look realistic. Most times the celebrity is huge in the forefront and you are small in the background, so it doesn't look realistic or proportionate. The "watter effect" option is deceptive because it's the same format and font as the rest of the options, but it is just a google search box.Other than that, the site is fun and interactive and has lots of options for photo editing that work, such as turning yourself into a cartoon, doing a mirror effect, and getting your picture on the front of a magazine. Lots of fun and the kids would enjoy it if you could do is all together on the smartboard and not individually on class computers.
