If you go over to this site – and you do need to register, and it is connected to the release of a certain film – you can tinker around and create an ‘avatar’ of yourself in the style of the Simpsons, or – if you prefer – the cartooning style of Matt Groening.
So, to the left there, the Groening version of me. The nose is probably smaller than it should be, but at least they have an option to make the skin paler than the traditional Springfield Yellow Tan, to reflect my far less healthy pallor.
And in my defence, my hair doesn’t really look like that. Honest.
