Oddcast Host Workshop The results are nowhere near as cute or charming as StorTroopers, but making your own virtual host is fun in its own way. Try and see if you can get your host to look like you. [via Cynthia on mockerybird]

Warning - the bloody thing doesn't appear to work on Macs. Although maybe that's just me.

definitely not as much fun as StorTroopers, but I couldn't get one of those to look like me, either.

The stortroopers are coolest if you leave the skin off.

tom, did you try reloading it? this is what mine looks like. not close enough to be recognizable, but not bad either. i get a kick out of pressing the caffeine button and making it hyperactive.

Nifty cool stuff. Perhaps the best use of database driven Flash that's yet been produced. I'm impressed beyond words. And for the curious, here's me: if I could make the glasses black, it'd be pretty darn close.

Is it supposed to do anything but flash through a lot of graphics and loop every couple seconds?
