Character presets are jpg images with metadata attached that can by used by other players to create an identical character of the same gender and race.
How do I create a character preset?
New Character
While creating your character, click the “Manage Appearance” button directly below your character.
Click the “Save Appearance” button (second tab) at the bottom of the Manage Appearance window.
Click “Save” on the Save Appearance window.
Go to your computer and retrieve the jpg file (*username* = your user name on the computer).
Old Character
Take a screenshot of your character in game (PrtScrn).
Click on the “Photo Gallery” icon at the bottom-right of your screen.
Click the “Save Appearance” button (second tab) of the Screenshot window.
Click the “Save” button at the botton of the Save Appearance window.
Go to your computer and retrieve the jpg file (*username* = your user name on the computer).
How do I apply a character preset?
Save the character preset file to your computer (*username* = your user name on the computer).
Create a new character in the game of the same race and gender as the preset.
If you try a different race or gender the game will fail to apply the appearance.
Click the “Manage Appearance” button at the bottom-center of the character creation page.
Pick the character preset you want to use and click “Apply”.
What if the appearance fails to apply?
If you’ve followed the steps in the guide and the appearance still fails, most likely there was a problem with the original file’s metadata and you won’t be able to use the character preset.
Use the submission form in the main menu to submit a character. Include a preset and click the Character Preset button.

I think it would make people pretty angry if you showcased one character and then included a preset that looked completely different.

Hmmm alright, I better not share my character then

The point of the character galleries is to share your character. It’s completely optional to also share your character preset. Many people choose to post their character, but not their preset. If you’d like, you can also put a note in the comments, that you would prefer not to share the preset to keep people from asking for it.

For some reason it only starting adding those up after I added it to the page and it’s not seeing posts from before. I’m still investigating why it’s not working correctly.
