Speaking character cartoon avatar - voki

This website for creating cartoon avatars online has a very distinctive feature - its most fun function is the ability to produce sound. Netizens can click play to hear a pre-set sound. It's a great personalized avatar for blogs, forums, and communities. Besides using it as an avatar, you can also use the virtual character for introductions, confessions, or pranks... In short, it will help you say what you want to say...

**Method:**

After entering the site, click "Get Started" to begin. The entire process is displayed with icons, making it simple and easy to understand. There's a dice in the lower-left corner that generates a random image, or you can design your own image using the first row of buttons. The most important part is the second row where you set the sound. From left to right, the options are: via phone voice address, input text for speech synthesis, record your own voice, or upload a file. You can choose whichever suits you best. Here's some good news: the text-to-speech function supports Chinese! Below the text input box, select "Chinese" under "Accent/Language," and choose the voice character under "Voice." Click "Done" to save.

The third row allows you to set the background and border. Finally, click "Publish" at the bottom to release your creation and give it a name. The website will then suggest registering. After registration, you can save and modify your work. If you don't want to register, just click "X." On the right side, two code options are provided for you to choose from.
