Ethan... With all due respect you have replied to a few fashion posts I have but have not given specific helpful info about specific stores. The reason I posted is because I was seeking help. If you can help great. If you can't, don't know or think my question is ignorant then simply don't reply instead of questioning my sanity asking. To be clear I have looked and was not finding a whole lot. If you found 22202 matches that is great, I did not find that many.

I actually searched for the answer for this on google, searched and used the 'search' feature on sl... Are there places beyond MP, free dove and free galaxy where I can locate some free pieces of clothing for a mesh body? I did get a few pieces from MP that are nice and one dress from free dove that is great. Also bought some pieces from mp that are good. But, I'm on the lookout for more.

Been having some issue locating 'urban' type trendy fashion for men. Found a few pieces on MP. Are there any specific stores?

I have been looking and have not found a good selection on MP or inworld stores I've seen. Thats why I was reaching out here. If you know of some specific places I've love to hear what they are. ty

Hi Everyone.. 1. I'd like to find a decent selection of strappy heels where I can try on a lot of shoes. Shoes are the main thing I have problems with working out in sl. 2. And I'm also interested in a decent selection of thigh high boots. If anyone has any suggestions it would be great for me to have a list I can refer to.

I've used a free demo dress only one time before. And had to delete it because it had a large banner above the avatars head with the creator name and website that would not go away. Is it ok to usually delete this banner? Can anyone advise me on how the banner can be deleted on demo clothes or furniture?

There is a specific dance AO at a few destinations I really like. Is it possible somehow to find out where that AO came from so I can purchase it?

I was wondering about that. I will try to deal with it. The learning curve struggle is real.

Ok... I will check into Lindex... I was wondering about that. I'll check out the comparison rate.

In sl I was discussing Chinati, Heterocera with a friend... There are many things I still do not know. But, can you explain in a way a newbie would understand how I can find the Chinati, Hererocera area? How would I get there?

You stated something specific I am interested in. I do work a lot. So, is there a specific site that is trustworthy that I can pay rl money to in order to have a mesh avatar designed? It would be worth it for me to save the time. I appreciate all of your advise.

I will do this... I'm having a little bit of a problem doing screenshots on sl. I actually have a problem running any other program when I'm running sl regardless of how small the other program is. But, I will attempt to do this because I'm very curious what is going on with the feet.

I am beyond a doubt wearing classic feet. And I actually wrote down the only feet that ever work for me. The only feet that have ever worked for me are the SHAWNA SHOES/ SHAWNA ALPHA SHOES. These end up looking kind of like 'heels', they cover my classic avatar feet and they fit. I spent hours the other day trying on nothing but shoes. None of the shoes seem to work except the SHAWNA SHOES which are from a classic avatar.

Thank you... you are right. I'm using the official second life viewer. I download sl from a link from facebook. I will be using firestorm soon but not until I get my new computer.

Right now I have a classic body... I am interested in changing only the classic body to a mesh body. I've talked about this is little in the past. But, can anyone recommend an FREE mesh body (with the hands and feet already attached) that is easy/ basic that a newbie can figure out with little assistance? 1. Are there any very basic youtube videos on basic steps how to change from a CLASSIC body to a MESH body? 2. Are there certain MESH bodies that are easier to find clothing for? 3. Are there certain MESH bodies that have more choices of clothing? 4. Are there certain MESH bodies that are more straight forward to add to avatar for a newbie with the least amount of 'extra' things to worry about? 5. Are there questions I should be asking or things I should be worried about that I'm not bringing up here?

I did read the information on blocking... I guess I was hoping the person would not be able to see me anymore. Because he was following and grabbing me even though I told him to stop. I did block his IM and text immediately. But, it seems like he will still be able to see me?

Thanks for the links... I'm reading what Jeremy says about blocking now. I was told in the sl newbie destination that the process of blocking people may change according to what viewer I'm on. I'm trying to figure this out before continuing doing anything on sl further.

I need some help with blocking... 1. I have tried right clicking on persons name from a conversation. And that has not worked. 2. I have tried looking at persons profile and searched all options and gears for a BLOCK button, tab or feature and that has not worked. 3. I have tried going to the newbie destination several times and talked to several people but we could not figure out why I'm not seeing a BLOCK button. The only thing I have been able to figure out is to block the persons IM and text. But, from what I understand this won't totally block him? Is this true? I'm not sure what viewer I'm on... I'm using windows 7, 64 bit... How can I tell what viewer I'm on?

I do not have a mesh body. I've tried to only choose body parts, etc that are from a classic body. I do still have a classic body. Yesterday an attachment got added on my avatar I could not get rid of. So, I created an entire new avatar. Still with classic body. The shoes and feet were fine yesterday. But, now... no. I have gone to the newbie destination so many times. But, my shoes still are not fixed. I will screenshot a picture of the feet. I will send a couple examples of shoe issues and see if we can start from there.

thank you for sharing this info. Many people have suggested I use firestorm because its 'better.' But, I did not know it was more options for advanced users. I will wait as you suggest. Same reason I won't change to a mesh body right now,. Its just too much right now when I'm trying to get used to the basics.

I am using a classic mesh body 'Jenny." So you need a foot shaper along with the alpha shoe? Maybe thats where I went wrong. I was not using both. I will try it.

Thank you so much... I will keep this info... Good stuff... I was frustrated because I knew there was a change. So, I started with Jenny again and re-created her. Now her walk and everything seems to be working fine again. So much to learn. Its all very interesting. But, it did surprise me when her walk changed for no apparent reason. It makes sense the way you explained it. thanks again as always.

I am new. What is the most easy direct way I can get to firestorm?

I was having several issues with my avatar in the newbie room. I originally went into the newbie room because: 1. avatar started walking different. And I could not figure out why. 2. avatar feet were 'floating' on top of her shoes. When I went into the newbie room the help person finally went into the fitting room with me. He said something like, 'Your avatar is all messed up. You should read everything about your avatar before you mess with the settings. There is a lot wrong with it. You have 2 heads on, your avatar is in 'idle' and you have been 'messing' with the outfit colors. You should never touch anything until you know what your doing. You should always start off with a 'classic' body. Next time read before you start pressing all the buttons.' For the record: 1. I did not and would not press all the buttons. 2. I DID start off with a classic body of Jenny even though the 'newbie helper' was accusing me of otherwise. 3. I DID NOT change the original color of the clothes the avatar was wearing. She was wearing a multi colored pants suit that always worked well for me in the past few days. 4. The shoes were a problem which is why I originally entered the 'newbie help destination'. I never did get the shoes fixed. The feet continued floating on top of the shoes. I ended up using a 'shoe shaper' and made a very simple pair of boots. 5. I NEVER added 2 heads. I did use some hair from FREE DOVE which looked fine. But, because I felt it may be causing a problem I removed it. Then I added stock classic avatar hair for Jenny. In the end my avatar did look and walk normal. And I did ask several people if they could see my avatar ok and they said the could see her clearly. Yes, I was irritated and frustrated at this person and the way he talked to me because I went to the newbie room to get help. After I got the 'lecture' from the 'guy helping' in the newbie forum I did ask, 'Can you tell me something specific that is wrong that we can work on fixing?' I never did get an answer. I was only told that I should 'not jump into pressing buttons and changing things before reading more about avatars.'

My avatar feet continue floating on top of her shoes. Can anyone advise on how to fix this?
