text: how can  i make my avatar into a girl?   once you get into the avatars page:  - click the 'preferences' link (above my favourites) - click the 'change' button - if you're sure you do want to make this change, click the 'switch gender' button and you're done!  bear in mind that any items that you've made as a favourite, will not be available again, until you switch back to this gender.
