darienwilson Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I recently got into Second Life, and am looking to RP a male a bit older than me, around mid twenties. I went and bought some clothes, but I feel like I look more like a dad than a younger guy.What do you think? http://i.imgur.com/dtxQ1R5h.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity Yazimoto Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 ahhahahha.. if you feel your avi look "like a dad" and so you mean by this an old man... wait to get a lil older and you wont have this feeling anymore lol ok now more seriously id say your avi looks like a 30's man. more or less, lets say between 28 and 35. if you want it look younger than this, ill suggest you to change the hair and choose something more wild. Clothes look ok, althought the jacket has a lil serious touch that maybe give you the feeling you are looking older than what you would like... Try to find a jacket more fun, or just dont put jacket at all. But except this, id say you are doing good :smileywink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fayette Charron Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 You do look a bit older then maybe you would like, but I don't think you have to do much to tweak him. Maybe a different hair style, a little less traditionally seen? The jeans and shoes look very nice, but maybe look for a different shirt and/or jacket. Over all you look very nice. I wouldn't change the avie itself, just the a accessories. Hope that helps some. Looks like we both posted at the same time, hehe. Great minds think alike.

darienwilson Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 I have to wait until next month, unfortunately, to purchase more L$. Is there a way around this restriction? Thanks for the feedback. :cathappy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariel Vuissent Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Looks like an accessories issue to me, too. Wilder hair, more casual shoes and jacket - or just ditch the jacket altogether. Try that and see how it looks, then go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darienwilson Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 Could anyone recommend a decent shop for younger, modest clothes? I don't want to look like a swaggot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity Yazimoto Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 you dont look like a swaggot at all ... you can find good clothes for cheap or even free, if you cant afford expensiver ones for now. Just take a look at some sl fashion blogs they give great advices. i can you give you 2 ones that i know for sure they feature male items : SLection : its a spanish blog, but you can see the items on the pic and then click on the links they give to get the slurl. They have a great taste, and Casas, the male blogger, is really active and publish a lot about male fashion. Fabfree the most famous, if you scroll by there you ll surely find some male items featured there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the feedback. :cathappy: Well, you can search for freebies in the meantime. And, if you find shops you are interested in, join their group if they have one. Most of them have group gifts.

Ariel Vuissent Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 If you're talking about the buying limit, you can submit a ticket to ask LL to raise your limit. In my experience, they're pretty quick about it; anything that gets them more money is something they definitely want! Choose the category Billing, and the subcategory LindeX Billing and Trading Limit Review Request. Tell them how much you'd like it to be raised, and chances are, unless they can find a legitimate reason to refuse, they'll grant your request relatively quickly. When I first started spending money in SL, I asked for a limit raise from $30USD to $70 and they raised it to $200, in less than 6 hours or so! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidnella Riler Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 shape is good but just the style, doesnt go, makes you boring and oldish, if you say you wanted 20 something, yes, that wont work, but I like the shape, you should be able to fit a cool style, search some male blogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solstyse Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I think it's the hair that makes you look old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
