These days, avatars are increasingly used in various parts of the digital realm. Social media, gaming platforms, and explorations into the metaverse are just some of them. Whether you want to use a personal avatar for live streams or for your hobby group’s next virtual meetup, an avatar template can kickstart your online adventure.
Begin by checking out the sample avatars in Canva’s creative gallery. Use these designs as your inspiration for creating a personalized character profile. Realistic-looking avatar templates work well for Twitter, Instagram, and other social media accounts. Gaming enthusiasts can use 3D avatar templates for their Steam or Twitch broadcasts. Chibi or anime-style avatar templates would impress a niche community.
Avatars are meant to be unique and representative of the person it’s identified with, so customizing the template is key. Start by clicking on the design of your choice, which becomes instantly customizable in our intuitive editor. Aside from being easy to navigate, our design platform has tons of editing tools to help unleash your creativity.
Your selected avatar design is made of several elements you can easily replace. Change its hair color. Play with the facial features. Browse the automated recommendations, or use the search function to find other visual elements.
You can also duplicate a page from your template to create several avatars. It’s ideal for crafting your team’s profile or presenting a virtual depiction of your diverse community. Type in people’s names. Switch up the background to display your brand colors. Or add a border or frame to wrap up the design.
Download the finished project on your desktop and use it anytime, anywhere. When you sign up for a free Canva account, all your project templates are stored in a cloud, allowing you to update the avatar whenever you want. Plus, you can show your design by sending it through email or a shareable link.
Go ahead and let your avatar represent any version of yourself. With Canva, there are endless possibilities for what you can create next.
