How do I use the avatar builder?


Using the avatar builder is simple!
First, access the avatar builder here.
After you access the avatar builder, you will notice that your current avatar shows up.
From here you can either customize your current avatar, or start with a default avatar by hitting "Get Naked."
You can select a new avatar base by clicking on any of the bases under "Select base." You can choose from over 50 avatar bases!
To select an item to add to your avatar, simply search for an item under the "Search items" section.
There are over 100,000 items to search up and each time a new item is added to Gaia, it will be available to be used in the avatar builder!
Made a mistake? Simply hit the undo button to revert the last change you made!
Want to see what your avatar might look like with the opposite gender base? Simple select "opposite gender" to view both male and female avatars at the same time!
Want to dress a friend's avatar using their inventory? Click "Ghost?" and enter in their user ID.
As long as they have the "Allow ghosting" setting check, you can work with their avatar and inventory!
Be sure to select "Inventory" in the "Search items" drop down (not Inventory(DB))
Want an idea of how much your avatar might cost? Click "View equipped market data" to get an estimated cost of the avatar.
Finally, want to save your completed avatar? Hit "save image" to save the avatar you created!

A Different but similar explanation on how to use the Avatar Builder:

Scroll over to "My Gaia" and down to "Avatar Builder" and click
on "Avatar Builder".

You can select "Change Background Color" if you want what is behind your avi
and other background to be anything other than white.

If you want to see what your avatar would like like as a Male/Female
then click "View Opposite Gender".

If you want a ghost effect on your avatar then click "Allow Ghosting".

Go To "Select Base" and choose a body frame/color that you would like your
avatar to have.

Click "Change Pose" if you want your avatar to Stand/Sit.

Go to "Search Items"
You can search through "All Stores" which will be the Gold Shops
and the GC Shops where you can choose items for your avatar to wear.

Scroll over to "All Types"
That will let you choose certain types of items that you may be specifically
looking for like Eyes, Mouths, Plush, etc...

Scroll over to "Item DB (Default)"
Those are items in your inventory that you can choose from.

Once you have everything on that you like, you can "Save" the avi.
