The avatar of the system and personal message for friends

[luce_quilla]

The avatar could be useful for the kids to feel more personal. The personal message could be useful for kids for express their feelings, emotions or something they want to share.

Thanks for the idea, can you expand on what you mean by avatar? What would mean changing the avatar? How this change would be noticed by others?

This is how I imagine this enhancement

[luce_quilla]

Every kid could have a customizable avatar and the others children could see it as well as the personal message in which kids could express them feelings and emotions. They should be able to share feeling with friends (people on the group view). It could be useful to improve their emotional intelligence and to feel more identified with their computer.
I added an example of how I imagine it could be.

Another idea that was explored early on was to make the avatar behave like a Tamagotchi, reflecting the state of the machine: battery life, memory usage, etc.

Bulk change distribution=SoaS -> component=SoaS

Ouch, this is a Sugar related enhancement, not SoaS. Sorry for the confusion, assigning back.

I think the suggestion is too generic for a ticket, more something that should be discussed on the mailing list. When we have a more concrete plan filing a ticket would make sense.
