Pikkipi Screenshots & Guides 
The screenshots on this page show the main ways you can use the Pikkipi scene creator tool to pose characters, give them expressions, put different clothes on them, and make scenes with custom backdrops. Although the examples here show how you can use Pikkipi for creating scenes and stories, like comics or movie storyboards, there's nothing stopping you from using it to create avatar icons, ecards or whatever you want.
