From Whirled
Your rooms are the easiest place to start customizing your Whirled. Rooms are made up of a full-scene background file called a "backdrop" and any number of movable items called "furniture". You can even add background music or buy a pet to roam around in your room. Shop or upload, and arrange them to suit your mood of the moment. Whirled's room editing panel makes furniture arrangement click-and-drag easy. Learn more here.
