Playing with Meez- check out my avatar

I came across a really cool site today.  It's called Meez.  I don't feel comfortable posting real pictures of myself or my family online.  I've read too many horror stories about pictures being "stolen" and used on unsavory sites.  I'd like to keep our identities private.  Meez allows you to create an animated image (otherwise known as avatar).  It's pretty cool...kind of like the new version of playing with Barbies!!  I picked my hair color and style, eye color, clothes and my dream kitchen as a background.  It's eery...if I were a cartoon, this is what I would probably look like!

 Have fun playing around!

(Disclaimer: I always make sure I disclose perks I might get if you use any of the links on MommyCosm.  Everything I used to create my Meez avatar was 100% FREE, however, they give you "coins" for referrals which you supposedly can use to purchase upgraded stuff...not sure what that involves since I found everything I could ever want/need in the FREE section.)

Got to your site thru' the Blog Catalog's recent readers widget on my blog. OK, let me check out Meez that you mentioned.
By the way, I also like the way you describe yourself in the "About Me" section. Yes, it's your site and you decide what goes on it, of course.

Cool site you have here. Thanks for joining the parent blogger group at blog catalog. I post pictures...maybe reckless, I understand your safety first mentality though. Talk to you later.
