As many of you have noticed, I don't post pictures on this website that show the faces of my boys. I figure, there is plenty of time for them to control (or ruin) their own online profile.

Easy to use and good for a giggle, the website that generated these "clay " images is free and needs no registration, no password, nor a download.
