The Inauguration, Barack Obama and you

By Charlyne Varkonyi Schaub January 20, 2009 11:22 AM

You may not have been able to go to Washington to see Barack Obama installed as President of the United States, but I bet you did listen to his speech for remaking America.

Keep that feeling after this day. You can still get your own piece of history thanks to PasteMagazine.com.

You make your own "Obamicon" by putting your face, your child, your spouse or even your pet in a style inspired by Shepard Fairey's iconic poster. Add you own name or slogan.

Just take your photo with a webcam or upload a photo, choose your own message, and submit to the gallery. It can be serious or wacky. Check out the possibilities at obamiconme.pastemagazine.com. If you don't already have it, you will have to install Adobe Flash Player 10.

You can save it to the site so all your friends can see it.
