You did a documenting specific concerns you had with the Evolver software. There is a lot of description of the limitations and issues you had with the software, but I felt there could been more written about the choices you made and how they affected resulting avatar. The idea to compare and contrast female and male (fantasy) avatars was good but it wasn't talked about much. It would been interesting to know if your decision making or the process you went through when creating an avatar of yourself vs. creating a male avatar of your friend.

I liked that you also played around with the clone feature and commented on its limitations. I too had problems with finding a suitable picture and when I found one it accepted, the program was stuck on processing the image (never finished).

By connecting the research study to your own experience with Evolver, you do a good job of utilizing outside sources. It was also refreshing to see your honest opinion of avatars. While you say don't "understand the point of making or using them[avatars]", you summarize the research study well and explain some core reasons of other people's reasons for using avatars.

Overall, you did a thorough job reflecting on your experience and talking about the issues of identity in online environments. The organization of the reflection could benefit from the use of headings and separation in sections as it would make it easier to follow.
