About avatars
When users enter a world that is connected to the Adobe community server, they are
visible to each other in the form of avatars. Users can choose a standard avatar provided
by Adobe or create their own avatar. You can also provide avatars to users by making them
available on a Web server. To use an avatar, users specify the URL of the avatar in their
Atmosphere Browser preferences.

An avatar can take any form you want it to. It can be a realistic human form or a simple
shape—the only limit is your imagination. For example, you can create a simple avatar by
creating a box object in Atmosphere Builder and applying a surface texture to it. Or you
can create a complex avatar in a 3D modeling application.
