How do I add a room?

There are two ways to add your own rooms to your account.

1. Manual method of making rooms

  • Upload your room image to a web server. There are several free ones, including http://geocities.yahoo.com.
  • The room images have to be at most 640 X 480 (preferably 540 X 385) (width X height) and smaller than 35Kb in size. The images must be in gif or jpeg format.
  • Make a note of the url of the image file, for example, http://geocities.yahoo.com/me/myroom.jpg
  • Click on the "Create Room" in the Room Browser Window.
  • A window called the Room Maker will pop up.
  • Enter the room image url and click "View". Alternatively, you can use one of the default images provided under the "url" button of the Room Maker window.
  • Give the room a name and description and click "Make Room". You're done !

2. Using a premium account at OnChat™

  • Open a premium account at OnChat™
  • Use the wizard in TrueChat's Room Browser Window to add your rooms from OnChat™ to the TrueChat world. That's it!


Notes:
Important: There might be a slight delay when you import your rooms to TrueChat (up to 2 minutes). Please be patient as there is quite a bit of data to be moved. If the TrueChat application jams up, don't worry, just restart TrueChat and go the the Room Browser to see if your rooms have been imported. Look under the "My Rooms and Bookmarks" heading in the first pane.
Don't worry about overwriting your existing rooms in TrueChat. The client makes sure that existing rooms in your TrueChat account are not overwritten with the imported OnChat™ rooms.
If you delete the rooms in your OnChat™ account, they will no longer be available in TrueChat as well.
All premium OnChat™ members (booster) will automatically become members of www.avatarexchange.com. AvatarExchange.com is being constructed and its service will be available soon.
