How to Turn Yourself Into a Cartoon

At one point in time, turning yourself into a cartoon would have involved an array of drawing tools, drawing skills and a few hours. However, it is now possible to turn yourself into a cartoon in less than ten minutes using an online cartoon generator, which transforms any image into a cartoon using photo effects. Once created, you'll be able to see what you'd look like in a 2D world and use the image as a profile picture or for other purposes.
