Creation of the Avatar

Making the Avatar was fun. A few complaints about Yahoo's options: No real desert backgrounds??? At least they do have a few libraries and an ALA-branded shirt. Getting it posted to the blog was interesting. It never gave me a "saved" message, just an ongoing "saving..." so I tried it a few times, finally logged out, went back in and discovered about five avatars all over the blog. Got rid of those and now there's just one and a half. So I can now move on to Thing 2. Woo hoo!
