What makes an avatar looks good?

Cindafukinrella · June 13, 2015

Well I think that what looks good on an avatar is subjective to what the person behind the avatar likes. When I first came back to Second Life after being gone for a while I went to blogs to find out what others were wearing. It did take me a bit to actually buy since I would read then go to stores and get demos to see if I was actually going to like what I saw on the blog. Doing it this way helped me to make sure I was getting something I would really like and would work with my shape.

I found a few complete outfits on blogs that I bought since I liked those so much but now I have what I feel is a good idea on what looks good to me. I like high detail, quality textures and it must be well rigged.

Some blogs will even tell you if items were group gifts or freebies. My best advice on freebies would be just because you are on a budget it doesn't mean that you cant look good. If a freebie isn't up to a high quality don't get it.

Groups are a greet way to not only get great group gifts but will help you with questions you have on who is a great skinner or avatar maker. Recently I asked who the group members felt made great wings for a petite fairy. Everyone in the We <3 RP was EXTREMELY helpful and I found some amazing wings that I am getting.

Don't settle just because something you really like is expensive; wait and save your lindens, you will eventually have enough.

When I came back to Second Life I basically started over and threw ALL of my old inventory into a few boxes and started completely over.

As always you can google Second Life Blogs or here are the following blogs I started with, still read, and love...
