Create an Avatar for your profile picture

     Use your avatar instead of a photo of yourself to be used as your profile picture on social networking sites.

     Elementary students can use this site.  http://www.buildyourwildself.com/ . Older students 13+ can create a talking avatar at Voki.com

     This is a site where you can download already made avatars.  http://www.freeavatarsonline.com/

     Right click on the image to save.

     Some sites require that your image be of a certain size and dimensions.  If you need to resize your image, go to Zamzar, iResize.com or      Resize2mail.com.

NOW LET'S DO IT!

1.  Go to Buildyourwildself and follow the online instructions. 

2.  When you are done, go to the send to friend button and send your avatar to your own e-mail address. 

3.  Go to First Class, find and open the message from buildyourwildself and save the attachment to your desktop. Send yourself the picture - send me one too!  diandoct@fc.amdsb.ca
