user hands or drawn hands (why not?)
Please allow users to use their own hand images. Maybe you can even add drawn hands to your library. You could let people choose the carnation colour they want, as for emoticons. :) On the other … hand, I know that us users we will always ask for more options :) : male, female, young, old, robots, Alf, with or without clothes (and their colours), rings, etc. Let's begin with two (man and woman) and you'll see if people like them. Thank you.

If this is somehow complicated/long term for development, perhaps Doodly could add at least one child's hand? You know, for the kids.

or an alien hand - or a bear claw! Be able to change them in the presentation. Drooling just thinking about it!

a child's hand would be nice. I love that there is lots of variety but would love more!

Or no hand! I would like the option of just writing instrument, or literally just a hand without the arm.

That could be pretty simple for them to do, if users had a photo, made the background transparent, then saved it as a PNG, we could potentially make any number of custom hands, pens etc.

I didn't see this until just now...would LOVE this. I want to use a realistic hand that draws with PENCIL, and I can't do that. :(

Using custom graphics for different "hands" opens up many possibilities and adds use cases not currently possible.

Custom hands are very important! I want to use only different pencils (without hands) ...

Why not any picture as a hand, such as a car revealing the path. If you can upload a hand then why not anything.

This would be an awesome addition, especially if it was possible to use an animated GIF

The option for the user to upload their own library of hand options would be HUGE benefit i.e. (PNG format transparent background). This feature is offered in other products (which I trailled). For example, I uploaded a cats paw instead of a hand - super cool! Yet here I am - intending to be a loyal Doodly customer. Come on, Doodly, don't let me down. This would be awesome. Thank you in advance.

I am a bit disappointed that this has been going for over 2.5 years and it is just "Considered".
Customizing the main element of this product (the hand) should have been "Considered" from day one, and then "Implemented" shortly afterwards.

This and (https://www.doodly.com/requests/home/idea/516/goose-feather-pen-paint-brush-and-pencil) are the main features that will make Doodly the best whiteboard software you need. Doodly do both of these and you'll be unstoppable.

I would like to at least see the ability to customize existing hands with sleeve logos or text. This would allow for a logo to make more "impressions" during the video.

This request has been open for over 2 years. Why? This should be a very easy thing for Doodly to do and it is obviously a highly requested feature. As a new customer I found out I can't do this and I am very disappointed. Since everything else is basically customizable I assumed the hands could be to. I need a specific character''s hand we created that is relative to my business. It would make a very powerful branding tool. Not being able to do this sucks. I am not going to be throwing any more money at their add-ons (I bought enterprise) when it's apparent Doodly is not willing to address a significant feature request. Makes no sense. It would be nice if we were given a reason as to why it has not been implemented or why it has been only under consideration.

the ability to import/define your own writing instrument using a .png with transparency would be a most welcomed enhancement which could increase the uniqueness of each video and improve the viewers' experience. I myself would prefer more robotic or mechanized instruments, but next month may want a different one.

I for one would already be happy with a custom Pen. So you can use your own branded one or a color pen to match the text in cause you are not using black/white.

Being able to customize the hand to whatever we want seems a no-brainer to me. Why is this taking so long to complete?

I would almost think this would be a basic need! I wanted to use a "floating pencil" in one video, and an Anime hand in another. I can make the images - both the pencil and eraser images. I also bought the Enterprise, so why so long? Other than that, the software lets you import everything else. Please consider removing this limitation for us. Thank you

Yes, I am an egomaniac; I guess. I want my hand in there to match me while I am training people. The sooner the better!!!
