Spooky! I was hoping it would have a cool drag-an-expression mode, but it didn't :(

The interface is crowded and the type is too small but otherwise this is very nice. The Level 2 expression presets are great - the expression for scorn is funny.

Reminds me of Eric Conveys an Emotion.

Is it wrong that my first two impressions of this were "Hey, look, I can turn the guy into The Rock, or Elvis!"

I love the animation of the "Attention" face. This is vastly entertaining, and will also be totally useful for drawing. Thanks!
