How to add a lightsaber to your Facebook profile

Facebook has implemented a new tool to let Star Wars fans add a lightsaber to their profile picture. As if your friends weren't already aware that you're very excited about the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens this week.

It's very easy to use. All you have to do is visit the official Star Wars Movies page on Facebook and click the Try It button.

An overlay then pops up that lets you choose between a lightsaber representing the light side or dark side and tweak the positioning of it so it looks natural. It's that simple.
