[My avatar turned into a white egg. Meaning I can't see it anymore. How can I fix it?]

I had the same problem, using Viewer 2. I went into the inventory and tried removing everything that I thought had a script e.g.. Ass, to reduce the number of bytes that the avatar was drawing, thinking that this was the problem.  That didn't work.  Then I downloaded and installed the Phoenix viewer.  That worked, and I can now see my avatar OK.  However, the downside is that with Phoenix a lot of times the rest of the environment doesn't rezz very quickly or at all, whereas I had the reverse situation with Viewer 2, where I could see everything except my avatar.

[How can I optimize movement controls for a mini screen (10.1 inches)? My avatar is moving too far.]

I am using a mini laptop.  When I use my movement arrows to move my avatar, the avatar moves further than I want it to, and further than happens when I am using a normal PC.  Why is that?  Can I change the amount of distance that the avatar wil move when I press one of the movement arrow keys?

[Avatar fails to rez and remains a "white egg" - why does this happen?]

My avatar won't rez and all I see is a white egg, but I can see the other objects and other avatars OK in my viewer.  What can I do to fix this?
