Supposed to be that - doesn't make sense though :P

Actually, it was one step further. The type of cartoon you chose might determine your age. So someone who is over the legal age of sex might choose something like Dexter's Lab, while someone who is underage may choose Ben 10 or Spongebob :P
A good but hilarious theory though, that pedophiles would be behind it, but they so weren't.
someone told me it was cause that way they could pretend there someone using a cartoon so they can add others
It was published on the NSPCC facebook page which is official so it should have a purpose.
This is one of those rare situations where I was wrong tbh I will concede:

Seems quite a success :)
That was bound to happen, it's just a shame it didn't go further and all who participated donated, as well as other events arise because of the campaign like you get with similar campaigns (Poppies, Ribbons etc). It's good that they got a surge of donations, but many clearly did it for the wrong reasons assuming that changing their DP magically means a child won't be abused.
