Modify your avatar's appearance.
See instructions at the NewWorlds Moodle site ([|http://newworlds.cciu.org]) The default avatar form is a female with plain clothing. We're sure the first thing you will want to do is change that! You will need to "put on" a new body shape, skin, hair, and eyes so that your appearance changes. 1. Click on the Inventory button on the lower right. 2. Click the Create menu, then under New Body Parts, click New Shape. 3. Name the new shape when it appears, and double-click it to put it on. 3. Right click on your avatar and choose Appearance from the pie menu. Then, you can edit your body appearance with the window that opens, including switch between female and male. Notes: In order to modify an attribute such as hair, a shirt, or pants, we must first Create that item before we can modify its appearance. To avoid being ‘exposed’, be sure to wear a new shirt or pants before removing an article of clothing. It is also advised to dress in layers and to wear underwear. Click the Create menu again to make any new body parts or clothing you want (hair, eyes, shirt, pants, etc.). Double-click on the item in order to wear the item that was created.
