Create your own avatar – DoppelMe

There are many online services and game consoles now that use avatars (Miis and the new Xbox 360 avatars) which are essentially representatives of ourselves in the virtual world of the internet.  There are so many ways to find them and make them but with this you also get loads of sites full of spam and a bombardment advertising.  I remember the time when the internet was free of advertising…those were the days.  The B2B team have brought us “DoppelMe” a free, easy to use avatar construction site using a clean,advertising free interface.

Obviously you have the countless options of changing your hair style as well as facial expression but what I like is the creativity which has gone into the accessories section.  Here you can add some style to your avatar in the form of a laptop, iPhone, football, cup of Starbucks coffee -- the list goes on.  I think this is what makes this site good, it’s unique selling point you could say, after playing around with the options I actually enjoyed the experience; you don’t see that much on the internet now while you’re surrounded by annoying pop ups, constant viruses and poor communication.

I recommend that you register with the site on this one, it takes less than 30 seconds, as it allows you access to a few more items.  What this also opens you up to is an RPG element which is similar to character customisation in W.O.W or other online games.  Using the apptly named DoppelMe coins you can earn money from just logging in or referring your friends which can be used to purchase other special items to customise your character like funky hair styles or swords.

Pop on over and have a look at DoppelMe and play around for free without having to sign up first.  Get it now before the rush!
