What Flash Cartoon does

Transform your photograph into a frame from a 2003 browser cartoon, featuring thick outlines, flat colours, and simplified details.

2. Upload your photo. Keep the subject large, sharp, and close to the framing in the preview.
3. Press Generate. Stay on this page; the image appears in the player when it is ready.
4. Open the image, then save it if you want to post it or send it on.

What you get

Flash Cartoon ends as a still image you can open on this page. Your upload supplies the subject. The effect supplies the styling described above.

Tips for a better Flash Cartoon

• Use the clearest file you have. Soft focus, tiny subjects, and heavy filters give the effect less to work with.
• Match the preview: if the sample is a close-up, crop in; if it is a wide scene, keep the surroundings.
• Compare your file with the preview on this page before you generate. Flash Cartoon follows that framing and that mood.
