 * Some ideas** **for an image ID**
 * use MS Paint to create personal image, crop it, save it as a jpg file and keep this for the computer ID image. Some choose to use the school photo and paint over it so much that they were unrecognisable.
 * goto [|www.weemees.com]www.weemees.com and create a weemee image (note this may be blocked at some schools as is has a chat room element)
 * goto [|www.voki.com]www.voki.com to create a video computer image that will talk and can be embedded in blogs, wikis etc.
