Avatar Fun!

I had so much fun with Avatar. I found this to be very easy and a lot of fun. I think I'm going to make one for my husband. I just wish they had a boxer dog as one of the pet options, but a bulldog is halfway there.

I think this is a great tool - especially for teens. This allows for many possibilities of self-expression. There are a wide variety of accessories, clothing options, facial options, etc. ( I only wish you were able to select your own shoes!)

As soon as I was done creating my image, I tried to figure out how to load it onto my blog. On the yahoo site, I couldn't find info on how to do that. I clicked on a given option to see more questions asked by other avatar users, and from these answers, it seemed that avatars can only be used through yahoo based tools and services. I then went over to Meez.com to try to create a similar image there, but I did not like the clothing options or facial options as much.

I was saving my yahoo avatar and by pure luck I saw the info on how to "export" it. I'm glad I did because I really like that I could include a dog in the picture with me:)

At long last...
Yahoo! Avatars
