0 Rolig Loon Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 You always have an avatar. Just log in. The handsome guy with his back to you is your avatar. If you want to change to a different one, there are loads in your Inventory. Open the Library >> Clothing >> Initial Outifts folder. All of the avs with people's names on them are available. (I'd suggest avoiding the ones that say (mesh) after the name.) Just use your mouse to drag/drop a whole outfit folder onto your av. That should replace it in seconds. If you really don't want any of those, you can buy skins, shapes, hair, and clothing in a ton of places in SL and on the Marketplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Amethyst Jetaime Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Be sure to download the lastest viewer of your choice before logging in. There have been many changes in SL and if you have an old viewer it may not be supported. If you do have an older viewer installed on your machine, you need to do a clean reinstall.

0 Lindal Kidd Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 If you don't see an avatar, but a puffy cloud, that doesn't mean you don't have an avatar. It means that your avatar has not fully loaded. If that doesn't correct itself in a minute or two, see this link for ways to combat "bake fail." http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/fs_bake_fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AlethaRome Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Gramstones, I am making the assumption that you 'signed in'/logged in to a viewer. If you can't see the avatar you certainly do already have, try the Camera button to readjust your screen view. If you want a different avatar you can try some of the pre-done ones that you get as a newbie, for a change, there are quite a few choices now, at least untl you figure out what you want, but it will definately look 'newbie' to most of us (nothing wrong with that).
