Create an avatar

How do I get a beginning avatar?

[KarenMichelle Lane]

Just select the Avatar button usually located on the left side of the screen in the Buttons grouping. Scroll to the avatar look you want and your current avatar body will be replaced with the new one.

Welcome (almost) to Second Life, Zoxzuel!

It appears you haven't actually been in-world yet. Have you downloaded and launched the SL Viewer? If so, follow KarenMichelle's advice. If not, you'll have to launch the viewer to make changes to your avatar.

Here are some things you should read...
