We've already seen sites like Twibbon allow users to rally around causes by updating their avatars, but a new service powered by Twitter photo sharing site, Tweetphoto, called Fantar, could prove be to be the easiest way for brands, bands, and celebrities to rally fan support on Twitter.
The premise is simple. Whether you're Britney Spears or KISS, you can work with Tweetphoto to create a fantar that gives Twitterers a one-click way to transform their existing avatar into one that includes your branding and artwork. As a fan, you can instantly show you're mad about that teen icon or your favorite Twitter app, no photo editing skills required.
The current selection of fantars is limited, but it does include lovable artists like John Legend, KISS, Demi Lovato, and Lenny Kravitz. There's even fantars for the San Diego Chargers and Mashable. Depending on your selection, you could be presented with a plethora of different creative options to display your fan status to your Twitter followers.
Just find the fantar you want, login with your Twitter credentials, and voilà — a new Twitter avatar. Though, do note that in the process, Tweetphoto will send out an automatic promotional tweet in the process, which we're not exactly fanatical about.
