Avatars

Gaggle Account: I made myself look more sophisticated and smart by wearing a button up shirt. I wanted to look school-like due to the fact that it is a school social network. I also made my avatar look like me since people would need to recognize me. I made myself wear a skirt to add style; I didn’t want to look plain. I also put lipstick on my avatar to make myself stand out against the others.

Real Instagram Account: I made my avatar have straight hair because I almost always wear my hair straight in public. I also put purple clothes on my avatar since the gym I cheer at uses purple as its main color. On the other hand, I put shorts on my avatar since I wear pants more than I wear skirts. I also made the background a park due to the fact that I like outdoors. I basically made the avatar look like me because I would not want to be considered fake online.

Fake Twitter Account: On my fake Twitter account, I decided to go all out since no one would know who I was anyways. I put peacock feathers on my back since peacocks are my favorite animal. I choose to make the avatar a little tanner than me because I just thought it looked better with the background. On the other hand, I tried to coordinate the colors to match, and blue is my second favorite color so it kind of worked out. I also thought octopus arms were appropriate since the backdrop is a beach.
