I've been away from SL also for a few years and it looks like there's a lot to catch up on. When I left SL, mesh clothes, shoes and hair were already around, bodies and heads were just beginning to appear. My question to you guys is: do I have to have a mesh head and a mesh body? What is the advantage? In terms of how people look and move, to be honest, I cannot tell any difference between someone just wearing mesh clothes and those with the whole body/head + mesh clothes. Do you notice when someone is still wearing a system shape and skin?
