Hi everyone! Thank you for all the replies and suggestions so far! (Reply to SID Riler) Thanks for adding another confirmation! (Reply to Theresa Tennyson's post) Thanks for the well thought out posts. I thought it may of related to SSB too but I installed an older Firestorm (meaning no SSB code) on a machine that never had an SL installation and it still displayed the problems. As for always looking that way, I am 100% certain it did not. My own body shape is something I scrutinize and tweaked over years. I know of certain poses that can push the shoulder blades out a little but that's how they always look no matter what pose I am in now. It is also something I know that didn't exist because I have a lot of prim clothing I spent hours custom fitting to my body and most of it now suddenly has shoulder blades sticking through it. I will look into "Hardware Cloth" next time I am able to though I cycled all the graphics from low, med, high, ultra, and received the same results. Thanks again for all the well thought out suggestions too! (Reply to Raimi Syaka) Thanks for sharing your experience! I admit that the fluxuating body part seems to be a random theme as I haven't been able to reproduce it again. Maybe it was from switching between the test avatars a few times... Either way, let's hope that one doesn't become common! (This reply is to Hitomi Tiponi) I have tried using an older version of Firestorm without SSB and the problem persists. I will need to try the official viewer still. As for JIRA, I have never looked at that before so this was my attempt to bring it up with the community and brainstorm. Since I know a lot of others share this issue I think I've done what I can to bring attention to it

Thanks for the response! I'm glad to get some feedback on this issue. I had the same thought about shoulders and can also verify that no setting would fix it. I also tried every other upper body slider and they had no effect. I am not sure when this started but I want to say April 30th since that's the time I recognized the change. I tend to scrutinize a lot but I could have missed it when wearing longer hair. But it does seem like something's gone very wrong with the "skeleton or bones" on the server end.

Has something changed on the SL servers recently? If not, I don't know what to do! It all began suddenly a couple days ago. Some of my friends were complaining that their shoulder blades were messed up. So, I cammed in on myself and sure enough, my avatar's shoulder blades were also extremely distorted and pointy. This is the shape I've been using for years... It looks awful and is discouraging me from connecting anymore. Please see some screenshots here: http://i.imgur.com/oNUgy3o.jpg My primary viewer has been the latest Firestorm release and I did all the usual troubleshooting steps: rebake, adjust shape, change genders, change group tags, undeformer, stop all animations, reset/remove/disable ao, remove all worn items, test avatars (both genders), clear cache, login alternate character account, and so on. The problem is: I see it affecting other avatars too...though it is more obvious on smaller framed bodies. To further test: I installed SL on a netbook and the issue persists there too. Since friends noticed it and it happens on multiple computers, I can only believe that its not on a problem on my end. I can't help but wonder if somethings changed with the servers recently? But, I am very open to other's suggestions or feedback too. Finally, while creating the screenshot above, I started having weird issues with avatar's leg fat. It kept fluxuating between small and big in a fast cycle. The only items being worn at this time was the test male (and later test female) ensemble. No AOs or anything are enabled or even attached. You can the animation here: http://i.imgur.com/cJAo2iA.gif. Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to discuss this and I will remain hopeful that there is a solution!
