How to Make Funny Xbox Avatars

When Microsoft introduced the Xbox experience, it included a new way for gamers to identify themselves: avatars. Much like the Miis on the Nintendo Wii, players can create an avatar that looks just like them, and then use that avatar in games with avatar support, such as "A Kingdom for Keflings" or "1 vs. 100." A way to truly make your avatar stand out from all of the others is to make it funny.
