Not sure what's confusing about my answer. If someone wants to keep their name, they can delete their inventory, avatar, etc. and pretend they're starting from scratch.

I've read the FAQ above, but still find it confusing. Thanks anyway. Not returning the fees sucks, I guess I'll just wait and see if my order is ever filled.

I'm sure I've seen Pokemon avatars and decor, they just use other names. I'll try to remember to message you when I next see them. It could help if you join a Pokemon fan group, they'll probably know where you can find them!

I don't have a business but this sounds fun and I'd be willing to help you out if you need a character!

The most you could do is to just delete all your data and consider it a fresh start, as far as I know.

If we can cancel a best rate order, do we get the transaction fee back? (I know it's a small amount for many people but I don't have a lot so it's still cash to me.) I placed an order using the suggested best rate buy, 250 l for 1 $. It said the estimate was 3 days, however, I discovered later how to see the open orders and there's lots more open ones for 249 and 248 so I'm starting to lose hope that I'll get my linden at all. Can I trust the estimate? Can I just change the rate on my order? This whole process is confusing, I wish things would be clearer for people who don't have a lot of experience with it. Thank you.

Still not sure what you mean. That doesn't mean it is (or isn't) an avatar. Some non-avatar objects in gachas can be worth more than gacha avatars if they're rarer or more sought after.

That's a bummer, I guess the commons are not avatars then oh well. Thanks!

I saw that... that's why I'm asking if it means the 16 commons are avatars or just decorations.

Thanks, I didn't know they had an in-world store! I'll go there and see.

Will do, though I'd rather avoid getting scam replies... I was hoping someone familiar with this gacha would be able to chime in. I'll see what different merchants say. The prices seem pretty standard for gachas and based on rarity so unfortunately it doesn't help much

I have no idea who the creator is, unfortunately! I know they're a gacha but I don't know the original creator's username

It says the rare ones are, but I don't know if the common ones are supposed to be avatars or just decorative items (it mentions they're rezzable)

I'm trying to figure out if these commons in this gacha are avatars or not: (Random examples from the marketplace) https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/BaiasticeThe-SNOOB-Collection-Dexter/8612135 https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/BaiasticeThe-SNOOB-Collection-Berry/7533629 Etc. Thanks!

I'm looking for "playful polliwog" avatars! I've tried searching the marketplace but I'm only finding rares, plus it's hard to search for since the spelling varies by seller. Does anyone know if they're been resold in world somewhere? Or if the gacha still exists? They're magic-looking frog avatars from a gacha. I'm especially interested in #14.

Could anyone please point me to good tutorials on making either heads or full-head masks/hats? I've been searching and found one last night but it was really outdated. Thank you!

Thanks, these help a lot!

Thanks! It's a bummer since the forum doesn't seem to be very active overall. Thanks, I'll look into it! Thank you! I was thinking of making something like that once I've got a bit more Linden (to upload) and understand how to make HUDs better but I think it would be really fun!

RunawayBunny, Thanks, but I know about these! My experience is similar to yours, it's usually pretty overcrowded and doesn't work that well for me. Quistessa, I didn't mean to be vague, sorry! I'm not really into skill games and I've done some hunts before but I'll need to look into the rest. I've seen ads for escape rooms but I think they might be seasonal since there don't seem to be many at any given time. I've never heard of sploders, either. Rowan Amore, yeah, I know about them! I visited Cica's new one the other day. I was thinking more along the lines of more gamier games

What are the rules and etiquette around just changing the patterns of existing clothes? Are there clothes sold as bases for this kind of thing? How does selling/giving the item work? I don't have many 3d skills but I'd like to make a custom outfit using custom inages made by me. Thank you.

Hear, hear. I know that I'd be buying a lot more clothes and avatar accessories if I had a body compatible with popular/nicer clothes. As it is, a lot of clothes are compatible with popular mesh bodies that cost way more than I can justify spending. Give users free trials, maybe a starting amount of Linden. I know SL's goal is to get people to buy Linden, but it's hard to get started when you're new and afraid to mess up.

Oops, wrong thread

Thank you so much, this helps a lot! Do you know if this is the only place where people post jobs? I'm not that great at photography, I think more roleplay oriented jobs sound more like my thing. These are really interesting and along the lines of what I'm looking for. Cool, I didn't know that!

I knew about that page, but thank you anyway! It's a good reminder to check it more often

I created mine a year or so ago and thought the whole process past making the actual account was confusing. There's very little in-world guidance on how to change up your avatar or the different avatar types. (In fact, I still don't have a paid mesh avatar because I'm not 100% sure how to choose.) It would be nice to get a mesh avatar as soon as you start, one with decent compatibility to help you get the hang of things. I only vaguely remember the old SL (from the 00s) and didn't use it much, but I think the avatar creation process was a lot more intuitive. Even figuring out how to change your face right off the bat helped.
