Online Worlds > Second Life

I think I might need a 3rd life!

SaraAriel:
So I decided to finally check out Second Life this weekend.  I made my person and went to Orientation Island.  I had absolutely no clue what I was doing at all, and yes I might have had a couple of beers to make even the simplest tasks seem even more daunting :notme:  But I digress.  I was at an area where there were mirrors/pictures of body shapes and I clicked on the mirrors and whatever else there was to click.  I got some type of a message that said to click if I wanted to save changes, which I did.  And low and behold, right before my eyes, my butt grew HUGE :hypno:  I'm not talking I ate a Snickers bar and my jeans got a little tight.  I mean it's of mammoth proportions!  I like my little virtual characters to at least have a better body then I do in real life  :lol: How on Earth do I get my butt back to it's normal size without having to join an exercise program?  Feel free to pick fun at the SL clueless newbie :crazy:  I can take it!

The joy of SL!

Don't worry, no dieting or exercise needed.

Right click on your avatar and you should get an option like "Change appearance." Then, you'll have a BAZILLION different options to change every last tiny feature of your body. "Avatar" shaping is actually quite an artform (or so I am told, because I sure can't do it well...). When you are done, you click the Save button, and you can save just the body shape, or body shape with outfit, or any subset of the above.

The cool thing is that you can save as many different "sets" of Appearance settings as you want, and each one will get saved in a different folder. Then, if you ever feel the need to re-experience the Huge Butt of Doom, you can always go back to that saved setting.

Thank you!  I'm happy to report that I got my size issues under control without giving up a single candy bar.  Now if only I could quit flashing people all the time :lol:
SL sure is a lot to take in, but I have not laughed so hard in quite a long time.  SillyQueen joined me yesterday and what followed after that was pure hysteria!  We need to figure out how to earn money now.  Some VMK friends on there directed us to money trees and camps, and showed us their shops and told us about their jobs, but I'm thinking there just has to be another way to make money.  We'll keep exploring and see what we can find!  Although, my exploring lead me to some very interesting places last night  :o

Your sig reminds me of one I saw in the SL forums. Something like:

"Build a man a fire, and he will be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life."
