Tired of Plurk’s Karma creatures on your profile? I don’t know about you but my Karma creature was defective(no head), and I couldn’t return him.  I first tried to make him disappear, but eventually he came back like all hungry dogs do.  So, I had to replace him.  I couldn’t find a whole creature, but I did find Mister Finger Pointer.

Mister Finger pointer may not have real legs, but he has a cape so it’s all good.  The point is you can create your own Plurk Mascot and insert it into the corner of your timeline.  The Plurk timeline just got better.  You can use Mister Finger Pointer or make your own.  This tutorial doesn’t tell you how to make your own.  Just get you a program like Photoshop, Gimp, or Aviary(my new favorite free choice), and build your Frankenstein.

Okay, copy and paste the code below, but I’ve highlighted in red the things you need to change depending on your image: The url where the image is located and the height and width of your image.  If you don’t change the height and width, your image will get body part’s cropped off.  Plurk’s already known for that so let’s try to avoid that.

Here’s the code to insert into your profile. If you need help installing the theme please click here.
Copy and Paste the following code into your customize profile section in profile settings:
