Tired of that blue dummy avatar? Want to change your image in a flash? Here's how to body swap whenever the mood hits you.
Using the Options Tab:
You have to be in 3D mode to change your avatar. Find the panel below
which is located beside the chat window.
1. Scroll to the "Options" button..
2. Click the "Options"
button to reveal your lists of options.
3. Click
the "Avatar
Library" and
a alert window will appear asking, "Do you want to load the avatar library?"
Select "Okay".
The list of Avatar Libraries will load in the chat window. If you scroll
down you will find more information regarding avatars. Check out the different
avatars that Cybertown offers citizens and when you find an avatar you
want to use just click the image and voilà — new you! Trés
kewl.
Using the My Info button:
- Click the My Info button on the control panel to the right.
- Next select the Avatar Library link. The list of Avatar Libraries will load in that window. If you scroll down you will find more information regarding avatars.
- Click one of the library links and you'll see what avatars are available there.
- When you find an avatar you want to use just click the image and the Avatar Wardrobe page will load. Here you can check the avatar gestures and get a better look of the avatar by turning it all around.
- If you don't like that avatar you can close this window and click the My Info button to start the process again.
- This is also a good place to go if you want to look at a avatar of your own making. You would just enter the URL in the text box labled "Your Avatar URL: ".
Using Properties when you are in 3D:
This is very easy, but you have to be in 3D to do it. Find your name in the people list, right click and select Properties. There you will see the URL of the current avatar you are using. Just replace that URL with the one you want to use and click OK. Remember - be cool about this and don't try to load giant avatars or ones you'll get banned for. Peace-out.
