Avatars

What is an avatar?
 * Avatars**

Software to help you create your own avatar. New York Zoos and Aqurium Build Your Wild Self[] || A fun site. Limited set of pictures you are choosing from but would be a good start to an adaptations student unit to get kids to create their wildself then they could explain why they chose each of the parts. ||  ||
 * ||  || You can take a photo on the Mac then use the software to creates an animation of yourself. ||   ||
 * || Fireworks || You can take a digital photo and edit in Fireworks. If using a photo best to save as a jpeg with digital resolution of 72 ppi. Size will vary cut if you save the biggest side to 400 ppi I found that you can then make smaller images without any problem. Rarely would you use an avatar bigger than this. ||  ||
 * media type="custom" key="4215111" || [|www.voki.com] || Allows you to create personalised speaking avatrs to use. Saved in code but can always cut and paste into Fireworks. ||  ||
