YouTube has just added a few apps for creating your own cartoons and videos with animated characters. These tools are available at YouTube.com/create, and include GoAnimate, Stupeflix and XtraNormal. This makes life easier for those who want to publish their cartoons and videos on the Internet.

XtraNormal is the most well-known of the three tools, made famous by the hilarious iPhone 4 vs. HTC Evo video that went viral when Best Buy tried to fire the creator who was a store employee. With XtraNormal, you choose pre-made characters, settings and gestures, and the program generates dialog by translating text to speech. GoAnimate is similar, but its cartoon characters are in 2D and users have the option to record their own voices. Stupeflix, on the other hand, allows users to create slideshows form their own photos, videos and music.

As Charlie Sheen continues his talk-show binge, and making controversial and provocative statements in his attempts at self-promotion, he is almost begging for cartoons to parody this behavior.

It was probably only a matter of time before someone started using his sound bites and tweets as New Yorker cartoon captions, much like the tweets of his fellow egocentric celebrity Kanye West, and Matt Stopera has just done so. Michael Kupperman's "Good Ol' Charlie Sheen" is a simple but effective cartoon inspired by the first-ever "Peanuts" strip. Jimmy Kimmel on his late night ABC show also put the same kind of Charlie/Peanuts mash-up into animated form. Sheen's memorable quote about having "tiger blood" has inspired Francesco "Ces" Marciuliano to pair Charlie's quotes with web-ready kitty pictures for his "Cats Quote Charlie Sheen" series, and his site is racking up the page views.
