Facebook profile pictures taken over by cartoon characters

Are you wondering why many of your Facebook friends suddenly changed their profile picture to cartoon characters? The latest fad to go viral on the social networking site has users changing their profile pictures to cartoon images from their childhood.

The objective of this latest trend is not to see any human faces on Facebook in support of the fight to stop Violence Against Children.

Email notices and Facebook status updates read - from now until December 6:

"Change your profile picture to your favorite cartoon from when you were a kid," it says on the note that is being passed around between friends. "The goal of this game is not to see a human picture on Facebook, but an invasion of childhood memories until Monday. PLAY AND PASS ALONG!"
