2/6 Saturday Special: Avatars
Mary here with today’s Saturday Special. Last year sometime, there was an Everyday Magic challenge about our favorite websites. I wasn’t able to complete a LO for that challenge, but I’ve wanted to scrap that subject ever since then. Recently, I stumbled upon some free avatar making sites. The two ideas merged, and now we have a Saturday Special!
For this challenge, I want you to create an avatar of yourself (or the self you want to be 
) and use it in a LO. There are plenty of free avatar making sites out there. I have a few suggestions, but please feel free to use and share other sites!
These three avatars of myself were made at the following sites (moving left to right): www.doppelme.com, for you lego fans… http://www.minimizer.com, and http://www.meez.com.
For my LO, I used the site http://www.moeruavatar.com. Please be sure to mention the avatar making site in your credits too!

And I love Amanda’s avatar and how she included her real life self in the LO too.

You have until February 28, 2010 to create a LO and post in the Saturday Special Gallery as well as in this thread in the forum. For a complete list of Matter of Scrap Rules, please visit this thread.
Have fun and create a little virtual you!!!
