Okay, you want to be a voice over artist. Great!
Don't quit your day job.
To let you know, it's very difficult to get into that field. And to broaden your mind a bit, it's also called voice acting. Having a voice is good, but the ablitity to apply it when ACTING is important.
I've met plenty of voice actors, including ones from popular anime, and I myself would like to break into that career field.
From what I was told from Mary Elizabeth Mglynn (Mokoto - GITS: SAC), She insisted you must find an area where it's highly needed, like California, or New York, even Texas. Secondly, since it is acting, you have to be aware about scams and such.
http://www.voice123.com is a great source to put up your resume and demo (if you have one), and you need a good mic to do recording, so that headset you may use to chat could be thrown out the window. =P
And you have to pay to register for advanced services.
However, there are so many things you know before jumping to that field, and I've been holding an interest since I was 15.
Here's Vic Mignogna's site. He gives basic information for people who have frequently asked questions about careers in voice overs:
http://www.risemboolrangers.com/voiceactor.html
I also suggest either going to the library, or purchasing books on voice overs. I myself own a few. The most well known I have listed here.
The Art of Voice Acting - James Alburger
To practice a bit, try and visit this VA community I've joined. It's quite fun and you meet others who are interested or just do it as a hobby.

There are many resources on the net. I could always help you too since I'm on the constant search of this type of career. ^_^

This Site Might Help You.
RE:
Where can I go to audition for a cartoon voice?
I've had the idea of recording myself and putting it on MySpace... But I don't think they have a Cartoon Voice section... Plus the quality is low...
So, do any of you know where I could possibly audition to be a cartoon voice actor... Or is it one of those things were you have to know...

A lot of voice actors I know have have signed contracts with things like FUNimation (that's mostly what they do, cartoons.)..
I definitely know there are auditions for them, though.
This can probably help you, it was posted on FUNimation's site:
If you are a media professional with any questions about FUNimation, the latest news, its properties or its history, feel free to contact pr(at)funimation(dot)com
If you are interested in licensing and retail promotion opportunities contact licensing(at)funimation(dot)com
If you are a retailer of any size and would like to get in touch with representatives of the Home Video department, contact homevideo(at)funimation(dot)com
PS - THE BEST OF LUCK! :D
