While I was poking around the Kart00 map for masqthephlsphr's site, the most far-flung link I came across was this Brazilian weblog. We've had a few Brazilian posters at the board -- Vox Populi comes to mind. I think, but am not sure, that Filipe Rijo (or some such) was also Brazilian, and also that Filipe would better fit the demographics of "Oz," the mastermind behind the Ultimato weblog.

I do not use the word "mastermind" lightly. If you scroll down the weblog (and wait a while for the large number of graphics to load), you will come across one of the most delightful posts I have encountered on the internet. Apparently, Oz discovered this Flash-enabled South Park character generator, and then used it (with an assist from Photoshop) to generate South Park X-Men. He did Cyclops, Jean, Beast, Iceman and Wolverine. I could not resist trying a couple of my own.


Storm


Rogue

And, I couldn't resist.


Professor X

I left a comment on Oz's blog asking if it was all right for me to make an icon using his artwork; I have not yet received permission. (Considering that mine is the only comment not in Portugese, I'm not sure how confident I should be that I'll receive an answer.) The icon has been made and uploaded. I will however hold off on using it for a few days until I've received word back from Oz.

d'H, how were you able to save the created character? I can't seem to figure that part out.

I did a screenshot (thanks Bit!) -- alt-Prnt Scrn on my Wintel, then pasted that into Photoshop.

Thanks! I'm on Mac OS X. I think I'll be asking my IT people about screen shots. Hmm...now I just gotta come up with a plausible "reason" to know this.

Try a Command-Shift-3.

(Shouldn't excuses for this be easier to think up in your line of work than in most?)

Well, it should be easier but I seem to have somehow acquired a little bit of a trouble maker reputation with the IT dept. They like me but they also know that I tend to ask for things outside the norm. A crazy thing called ambition (What's that?) and the ocassional binge of boredom gets in the way. You know what they say about idle hands. ;o)
