Well, this is not really how I see myself, but it's as close as I could get. And like most glasses, all their glasses looked stupid on me.

Post by: axerton on 14 Aug 2008, 08:04: is it bad that I keep going up and looking at my one, wishing I really did look like that?

Edit: I only just realised that the gesture that the first rendition of Jodie is demonstrating is in fact not a peace sign but the British version of giving the bird.

i'm surprised by how much i was able to make it look like me, actually. usually they don't end up so accurate on account i am kinda funny looking but this seems about right.

I'm pretty sure she has blue eyes, but I couldn't find a good pic when I was trying to put in the eye color.

Edit: It cracks me up that they only have one ear choice, and it was perfect for Tania's lil head.

All I did was took a screenshot after I was done, cropped it down, and threw it on photobucket.

So, I guess this thing is not good at making ugly people, so I made it for back when my hair was long and in an alternate world where I am much better looking.

I don't think it looks like me at all. most of these website are like that. The closest I've actually gotten to are the Wii Miis.

Post by: Lines on 19 Aug 2008, 08:44: My Mii looks a lot like me, but I have trouble with these things, too.
Title: Re: Oh no not another one of these themed face maker things
Post by: 0bsessions on 19 Aug 2008, 08:51: My Mii is terrible. They really don't have a lot of options for facial hair or dudes with shorter hair (Though the options when my head was shaved were even worse). I've made some disgustingly accurate Miis of others, though (Especially Jiisus).

Yeah really, there is no option for making the skin school-bus yellow.

Seriously though, I suppose that is a good reflection on manga art. I mean, despite the fact that the artists are mostly Asian and the characters are all from Tokyo or Hong Kong or something, the characters rarely look Asian.

That's just because you live in a white society. Actual white characters in manga are differentiated from the standard Japanese character.

At the same time, though, this is an avatar maker, not a manga creator, so the avatar features should be flexible enough to produce an avatar that can be readily identified as whoever it represents.

Post by: jhocking on 19 Aug 2008, 12:45: Well I said "not Asian," not "white." And considering the url is faceyourmanga.com, I think it's pretty safe to say this is in fact a manga creator.

That's a good article though, thanks for the link. I've never actually paid too much attention to what ethnicity the characters look like (I started reading comics when living in Korea, so that fits what the article is arguing,) I was just agreeing with your statement.

I'm not accusing you of anything, it's just that your comment echoed a common sentiment, sorry.

I would argue that it's aping the manga style, namely, big eyes and flat faces, rather than actually creating manga.

Title: Re: Oh no not another one of these themed face maker things
Post by: bbqrocks on 19 Aug 2008, 16:13: Anybody wanna go into business with me on this?

We'll need a surgeon, and pace-maker (uh) maker. I'll deal with the press outrage.

Loxley took one look at my Mii and said...way to be LUNCHY.

I was like...oh. you're pretty much right.

Post by: celticgeek on 20 Aug 2008, 08:16: Drumming is about the most fantastic piece of percussion that I have ever heard.

I'm going to listen to it now.
Title: Re: Oh no not another one of these themed face maker things
Post by: Tehz on 20 Aug 2008, 09:30: I think I'd like mine to replicate Aphex Twin, most any song from Richard D. James Album on.

Only drawback is that my heart might just explode after long enough.

I like "Come out," his piano phase-shifting piece, and, of course, "Music for 18 Musicians" better.
