Sitting at home recovering from a mild bout of food poisoning and surfing the net fairly randomly, I found this site: which has microhero versions of the Endless from Neil Gaiman's Sandman books, and lots of other microheroes too. What I was looking for was a template that I could use to do "wardrobe" pictures of items of clothing which fit me and look good together and on my currently lumpen body. (To save me from my sometimes over-ditheriness when getting dressed ). There are microhero templates but the process of customising them is very complicated and I want something easy, like a paper dress-up doll that I can colour in. No such thing seems to exist, so I guess I will carry on dithering.
The food poisoning was caused (I think) by cold chicken thingummies I had for lunch at a profesional development network meeting I went to on Friday. The meeting was useful and I came away with a couple of articles that I will be passing on to my students next term, but the aftermath was dreadful. As well as the most awful stomach upset, I had a headache and shakes and shivers, which luckily only lasted 24 hours. It started on the bus on the way home (not good), and I was lucky to actually make it home before it set in with a vengeance. I will not be eating chicken again at that particular venue.
