I’m looking at this whole Meta Avatars update thing, and honestly, it’s like peering into a digital dressing room of the future. So apparently, they’re giving users more control over face shapes and body part sizes. It’s like having a personal stylist for your virtual self. Fancy, right?
These Avatars are popping up everywhere on Meta — Horizon Worlds, Quest, all the places. Facebook, Instagram, the whole ensemble. And get this, in the US and Canada, folks can now pick from all sorts of body types. Shoulders, hips, biceps – I mean, who knew we needed bicep options?
Oh, and there’s this cool body preview mode. You can check out your Avatar before going nuts with outfits. Kinda like trying on clothes and realizing, hmm, maybe not. Speaking of not, I lost track — where was I?
Ah, yeah, the face editor. It’s getting a spruce-up too. Want a defined jawline? Fuller cheeks? They’ve got you covered. Plus, 18 new standing poses. Why stand in just one way when you can strike 18 different poses, right? And don’t forget those emotes and clothes — styles for every virtual personality.
They’ve even got an AI style tool now. Just type in what you’re feeling, or let it surprise you. I’d probably end up with something wild like rainbow hair, but hey, randomness is half the fun.
This whole upgrade thing is for the 13 and up crowd, rolling out slowly in North America. And I guess more styles are in the pipeline. So, who knows what we’ll be dressing our Avatars in next? Feels like we’re on the brink of a digital fashion revolution. Or maybe it’s just me getting too excited about what’s essentially online paper dolls. Who knows.
