  1. Keeping your avatar looking relatively young gives many more clothing options! 

    But why focus only on age? Why not body shape too? Rarely in SL do I see an avatar who might be described as overweight, let alone one who is positively fat. The contrast with RL is stark. Where in SL are the droopy bits and cellulite?!

    SL allows us, if we choose, to escape our RL selves and that is a good thing. For those whose conscience makes them uncomfortable pretending to be in SL something that they are not in RL, there is always the option of adding a RL pic to your profile.

    At what stage in SL evolutionary history did "avatarus rex" first cross breed with "avatarus phallus humungous"? I think they compliment one another quite nicely. After all, SL ladies wouldn't want their SL men to miss the toilet bowl on account of lack of reach causing an inability to point things in the right direction, would they?

    Those damn PG guidelines, eh, Cinn?! I assume this is the pic to which you're referring:

    It's a shame really, because the uncropped version is rather good (even if I do say so myself)!

    Looks pretty sunny Val. You're wearing a lot of jewelry on your wrists. Be sure to remove it before you go swimming or you'll sink straight to the bottom like a stone.

    You see Randall, I went for a swim this morning and didn't sink! :smileytongue: (I'm sure the beaver would have rescued me anyway)

    I've been looking really hard, but am still struggling to see Val's beaver.

    As far as I'm aware - your SL Dashboard (where you can see online friends), the Forums and the Feeds are 3 separate websites. It's important to be clear about which one you are speaking

    I have noticed that if you are online in the SL feeds (my.secondlife.com) someone searching your web-based profile from within SL (using V3 or Firestorm) may see the green dot on your profile and could falsely assume that you are inworld.

    I find Phil's line of reasoning compelling.

    I'd challenge anyone to recreate in SL their RL own home and furniture to exact scale and then to try and navigate around that home. Unless you happen in RL to live in a very sparsely furnished mansion, it would be as good as impossible no matter what your camera angle!

    SL rooms have to be larger than in RL in order to enable navigation and viewing through a trailing camera. Furniture has to be larger than in RL so that those rooms don't then look empty.
