A couple threads got me to wondering just how tall each of us is. Many of us have not met in world, so have no idea what the other "looks like".

I am currently my RL height in SL, at a whopping 5'2". A lot of times people think I am a kid, but nope, just an average height female LOL

I change my skin and hair quite often, but have become fond of this shape (and another shape with same dimension except the face.

So, show us what you look like and include your height.

Me.. 5'2" and this is what I look like. (hopefully it will show up as a picture, otherwise, I guess you will have to copy paste the url to see it, sorry)

ceka your pic is not showing up for me (and I know how you feel, I feel so short, but I like being my own normal RL height in SL)

Now if only I had a shape like that in RL LOL

(I have not done the head test to see if it is proportioned correctly hehe)

My main av is about 2m 20 cm, which is a bit on the tall side I guess.

My child alt is about 1m 40cm, which is fitting his age.

Here they are side by side: http://www.flickr.com/photos/dariras/3272942922/

From floor to top of hair.. 6' 10.2" (2.088m)



Without shoes, without the prim hair and all that, I'm 5' 11.6" (1.819m).. of course, without the shoes I look like I'm about 5'2.5" to most people.

In shoes I'm 6'6" or just short of 2m. I actually thought I was shorter. I'm shorter than most women I dance with.

nice pics (I love seeing pics of other folks avatars)

ceka, it is still not there for me, now it is a big box saying to check out a specific site

It is amazing how different we all are, how styles are different, shapes, sizes, colors, even race in some cases :)

I like unique :)

Edited to add
Ceka I just looked at your flickr pics, you have a very pretty skin, where is it from?

Currently, I'm at about 5'4" last I checked. This is up from 5'2", where I was dwarfed by everyone. I had no problem with this, until I started dancing with Ghosty all the time and he seemed to have an issue with my legs dangling in the air :p So, to accommodate him I stretched myself a couple of inches and that, combined with the heels I always wear (which are rather large) seemed to help.

My Ava would tower over me in RL, either way. I'm barely 5' in the real world :)

My day-to-day conservative businessman look at 6' 8", and Evil Twin at 7' 4".

Don't ask.

I'm taller than I realized, but still I end up seeming short-ish next to most of the people I hang with.

Sinistyle. Great place for distressed/torn/bloody stuff, not sure where snakeskin fits in but I needed it and grabbed it :D It's on the shirt layer.

PS: OMG I can't believe I took that pic and my black shirt was still rezzed underneath the jacket. Evil normally wears that outfit with a swatch of hairy chest hanging out for full effect :o
