Avatar Customizations

This wiki page shows all possible options for avatar design that appear in the Customize Avatar page, found under the User tab in the Toolbar. This includes all hair and body styles, but not backgrounds or equipment (with the exception of eyeglasses and purchased animal ears, which appear in both your Customize Avatar tab and your Equipment tab).

For details on how these layers are combined to create an avatar, see Guidance for Artisans. Wondering how all this art was made? See which fellow Habiticans contributed their pixels on Art Credits.

Purchase Options
Some of the avatar customizations are available for free but others cost gems to help support the site. The customizations are available in sets. Within each set, you can choose to buy one or more items individually for 2 gems each or the entire set at once for 5 gems. If you purchase one or more items individually and then later decide to buy the remaining items, the option to buy the remainder of the set will still cost 5 gems.

Body
Users can change their avatar's body size (slim or broad) as well as choose a shirt. The design of the shirts, especially some of the patterned special shirts, can look different on a slim body than a broad one.
