STEP ELEVEN (Adding Your Photo Icon)


When you talk in a text chat, you're likely represented by either a blue globe icon or a soccer ball icon by default. That's great if you indeed look like a soccer ball or a blue globe, but the whole experience will feel much more natural (and more conversational) if you use your photo instead, rather than Apple's blue globe icon, which is kind of worldly, yet somewhat impersonal. First, you'll need to import a photo of yourself (preferably a head shot) into your Mac (you can go to Lesson 4 "Importing Photos" if you don't know how). Your photo will wind up in the Pictures folder on your hard disk, so open that folder, find your head shot, click-and-hold on it, then drag-and-drop it onto the blue globe (or ball) icon in iChat.
