Facebook Avatars feature launched in Malaysia
If you are a prolific user of Facebook, and odds are good that you are one, you’ll likely have noticed a slew of your friends, family and other associates changing their portraits to something cartoony today and you can too as Facebook has officially launched the option to create an Avatar for your profile.

The Facebook Avatar creator lets you tweak the facial features, hair, outfits and other details of your online representation. This Avatar on Facebook can be accessed in the Bookmarks tab on your Facebook mobile app or from the comment composer. Another shortcut is to click on someone else who has already made one. Once done, you can also use these new Facebook Avatars as stickers in your conversations.
