Export Yahoo! Avatars

Filed under: General — Laura Moncur @ 5:00 am

My Yahoo! Avatar I created an avatar when I first signed up for Yahoo! IM. I kind of thought I would be able to use it for the picture that got sent to people, but I just ended up using my real picture. I really only talk to Mike via Yahoo! IM, so the picture isn’t really important, actually. I think he knows what I look like.

Now, you can export your avatar (as demonstrated here). That’s kind of cool, but I don’t really know what I’m going to do with it besides post it here on this entry.

The truth of the matter is that no matter how many choices they give me, the thing isn’t going to look like me. My hair is really curly, but it curls differently than this comic. This is the closest face shape I could find, but it still doesn’t look like me. And can anyone tell me why they don’t have different body shapes to choose from. I’m offended that I can’t make my avatar fat and I don’t know why…
