Thumbs up Virtual Models

Have you guys seen this? Some people in the other WW forums had these. It is pretty fun to play around with. You can try on clothes from several retailers and see how they would look on. Of course it is all smoothed out on the model, and definitely would not be smooth on me, but it is still interesting. And the difference between my current weight and my goal weight was quite motivating!!!

Oh I thought that would insert the picture. I am still trying to figure out how to insert a pic into the actual reply message. I know I've done it before!!

I thought that if I copied the properties of the picture (from a website) into the image prompt on the reply screen that the actual picture would display. Can anybody explain what I am doing wrong? I'm going to keep trying to figure it out!

I've done this. It's really fun, and actually works pretty well at giving you a general idea of how clothes would look on you.

I agree about the "smoothing" effect though. There's no way I look as trim and smooth as my virtual model.

Well, for my height, 214 pounds was the maximum. Guess I'll check it out in about 50 pounds from now! I think it looks like great fun.
