FAQ
What is Cartoon My Facebook?
The CartoonMyFacebook name tells everything what it does.
My purpose is to draw everyone as a cartoon and make them as ambassadors of peace - to promote equality in social status, gender, race, colour and religion. My only intention is to make everyone cute :)
News: Posterous added CartoonMyFacebook into their spotlight. Read the interview.
What (who) was the inspiration behind it?
The idea started from last year's Facebook phenomena - when almost every user changed his/her profile into a cartoon character in support of the "Stop Child Abuse" campaign. (I have shared my thoughts on my other blog.)
This time however, I would like to do something useful and not just trigger awareness.
Is your cartoon only for Facebook?
No. You can print, sell, put up on the wall, blow-up, shrink, make it as an iPad wallpaper or as a tatoo :) It's up to you.
I started this project just before Google+ hit the social media market. So for those facebook haters, the cartoons here can also be used to your google profile.
1 million dollars! Are you crazy?
Yes. I can clearly see my target - with the right mindset, motivation and purpose.
Someone in 2005 raised a million in less than a year for his own college education, why can't I?
I am not selling pixels or ads and this is not just for my own agenda. What I can give you is more than a piece of the internet.
I can promise you 3 things:
1. You will enjoy your own unique cartoon - my hardwork.
2. You will be included in the book entitled, "The Book Greatest Cartoons that made a Difference". Plus 20% discount when you buy the book.
3. Your contribution will be used for a good cause.

US$25 is a bit pricey. There are many sites that can convert my picture into cartoons.
The value of my work depends on how you perceive it. Infact, I do not put a limit on the price. People can give as much as they want. As you know this project has a purpose.
My cartoon has its own style. No single auto-software can offer that.
And the best of all, you can express yourself with your very own "speech bubble" - to express yourself.
And as a sort of advertising - you and your website will be seen by millions of people.
I have ordered my cartoon. When can I have it?
I will send your unique cartoon within a week from the date of order. It is a "first-come-first-serve" basis.
I can only work on this project after office hours or during night time as I still have to prioritise my full-time day job.
Thank you for your understanding.
I'm also an illustrator. How can I support this project?
I would really appreciate your help. You can simply spread the word or create your own cartoon and add a website signature on your canvas - something like this. You can download the source file from here.
I'm also planning to run series of events. Let's connect and meet up one day.
