The photo challenge was a really fun idea! Here's another... on GR some of the mamas have been making online dolls to look like them. It's really addictive and fun. I have loved seeing the results -- some of the dolls really look like the moms! Maureen did a great one of herself -- please post it here :)
Here's the site:

You go through the various steps to add hair, features, clothes and backgrounds to your doll (as you make changes you can see how she looks on the left-hand side). When you're finished, click the little save icon (the middle one under the doll) to save her to your computer.
Here's mine. I made one of Ava too and shrunk her in Elements.
