Hello all!

so I just joined SL yesterday, and toaday decided I wanted to make my avie look a bit better.

I got some money, and bought this shape on the marketplace.

But i can't seem to be able to apply it right.....

the shape of my avie changes but looks nothing like the shape picture ......

can anyone help me with this?

The basic SL avatar has two separate things that determine how it looks - the "shape", which determines its 3D characteristics, and the "skin", which determines coloration, drawn-on body details, etc. If you want to look like that picture you need both the same shape (which you now have) and the same skin. There's a chance your shape came with a "style card" notecard which would say the skin the creator used; otherwise you could just go shopping for a similar-looking skin.

 Welcome to SL.

If you look through the marketplace reviews for that ad you shared, you'll find that somebody reported the pictured skin was sold by essences and the skin is called whisper.

You'll find stores come & go in SL.  Offhand, I don't know whether Essences is still in business or not.   Good luck!
