Although this blog is presenting various information about Scandinavia (Hokuo in Japanese), I sometimes feel a strong urge to introduce interesting Japanese web services when I find them. For instance,
kaome.net(a) is one of them. This free service makes your photo to your own avatar which can be used as your profile sticker. Just send your photo (less than 100kb) as your email attachement and wait for about 10 min. (it may take longer because the site receives 100,000 photos per day) before you will receive your avatar by return. But remember that your age should be the title of your email message and email format will be opened by pressing the pink button if you are female. When you receive your avatar, save it in your file within an hour because it will be automatically deleted together with your original photo.
Kaochara.jp (b) and
moeruavatar.com (c) are another avatar creation sites.
AbiStudio.com is managing services of (a)&(c) and Matsushita Electric is providing the service (b).
If you want to make your own designed knit cap or T-shirt, try
stitch and
stitch2.
