Need help creating different avatar with different text.

Cynthia Bryant 7 years ago in SitePal Gold • updated by Gil Sideman 7 years ago • 3

I am using the free trail.  I am trying to create several scenes with different avatars to insert on different pages in a PowerPoint presentation.  The package will change avatars and edit over the previous saved scene.  I need to create at least five different avatars for a five day e-course.  Each day there will be at least 34 different slide I will need to create text to speech for.  Please advise on how to make this happen.  Thanks in advance.

Hello Cynthia,  Please follow these instructions to embed your Sitepal scene in Powerpoint.


  1. Copy the Flash Embed Code from SitePal.


  2. Click on Options, and then Customize Ribbon.  Place a check next to Developer in the main tabs box, and then return to normal view.  You will now have a DEVELOPER tab on the ribbon.

  3.  On the Developer tab click the More Controls command in the Controls group.

  4. Scroll down the More Controls dialog box and select Shockwave Flash Object, then click OK.

  5. Once you click OK in the dialog box illustrated above, your cursor will turn to a cross-hair.  Hold down the mouse button and draw a rectangle.  When you release the mouse button the rectangle will appear with an X in it.
  6. Right click the X in the rectangle you have drawn for the Shockwave Flash Object.  Select Property Sheet from the context menu.
  7. In the resulting Properties dialog, click in the blank field next to Movie, and paste in the URL/Embed Code from the SitePal. It will look something like this:

  8. Then close the Properties box.  That’s it.

Before you start using the above mentioned instructions for embedding a scene in powerpoint, kindly review the following instructions to Create and Publish your Sitepal scene using your Sitepal account.


1. Login into your Sitepal account and access your Sitepal scenes.


2. To create a new scene, click Add Scene



3. Give a name to your scene and select whether you want to create a Classic avatar or a Full Body Avatar. 



3. Once you click SAVE, your scene will appear in the list of scenes.

4. Now you need to create an Avatar for this scene and assign it a voice. To do this click on the scene Thumbnail under the EDIT column. This will open up the Sitepal scene editor where you can setup your character. 



Once you have setup the character as per your requirements, Save the scene.

To Learn in detail about how to use the Sitepal editor -- refer to the Sitepal User Guide (Page - 28, Chapter 3)

After saving the scene, the character image will also show up in the Thumbnail of your scene in the scene list and the thumbnail will no longer be blank. 


5. Once your scene is ready to be published, click on the Publish icon as highlighted in the following screenshot - 


6. As we are aiming to publish the scene in powerpoint, hence select Embed in web page and then In page Embedding



From this point forth, follow the instructions mentioned in the above post to generate and copy the Flash embed code that can be used in Powerpoint. 

Hope this helps.
