Picrewis a Japanese layeredpaper doll-styleavatarmaker website. It was initially developed by two staff of the Japanese company TetraChroma[1]in July 2017,[2]and officially released in December 2018.[3]
Overview
[edit]The website's concept and interface have some similarities to earlieravatar editing systems,including Nintendo'sMiiavatars andWeeMee,and the longer history of digital paper doll games such asKisekae Set System.[2]
Picrew has become popular with audiences outside of Japan,[2]with the simplicity of the image maker and the potential for users to contribute their own Picrew avatar maker illustrations through a Picrew creator.[4]Picrew sets some restrictions in its terms of use, including the prohibition of re-distribution of the images created through Picrew image makers.[5][6]Individual creators control some of the rights to the resulting images from their image makers.[5]
Specs
[edit]Image makers on Picrew are 600 by 600 pixels. As of October 31 2023, image makers are now also available in Tatanaga size.[7]This refers to the aspect ratio of 9:16 for a canvas size of 540 by 960 pixels. Each image maker may have up to 50 layers and parts, and up to 750 items in total. Parts may have multiple layers assigned to them, may contain any number of items, and up to 18 variations of each item (minimum of 1 variation per part, with the option to add up to 17 extra variations).[8][9]
