I have a bunch of different AV outfits, just to have different hair colors. Earlier today, I was flying in the outlands from Hawthore to Clyde and on the server change, my shirt extended to gloves and my skin became the color of my hair (blue). I also gained some facial hair. I tried changing my outfit to black hair and all that changed was my skin became black as well. The same happened when I changed to red hair. Other people saw my AV the same way that I did.

I relogged and my avatar looked the same (red skin, glove-sleeves, etc.) I changed my out fit this time and my skin became normal, I then changed to an AV with a different shirt to repair that. Sence, all has been well.

I am just wondering if this is a common bug, or if it's a new 6.0 bug, or an isolated incident. It caused little damage, it just scared me.

Definatly not new to 0.6. I had this happen on the .5 test world. Same exact thing, except, my skin was black, not red. I was only able to change the face skin by changing my avatars hair. I never reported it because I didn't know how it occured. Many people saw me looking like this, and it was kinda funny, but, annoying at the same time.
