Thank you all for your comments and advice, much appreciated. I wanted something that depicted a 'middle of the road' man, believable and not too bulky. I went for Niramyth and then changed the physique to the slimmest possible. Still quite muscular, but not extreme. I like the quality of their avatars and the textures. Now since you are all so kind and helpful, can you tell me about using a headset with SL? Interesting? Redundant? Wait a bit longer? Thanks again.
