Is there any way to get the camera to stop moving behind my avatar when I jump (or move)? I just got a new AO and the jumping animation looks awesome when you hold a sword, but I can't take a frontview snapshot because of that darn camera!

If you use freezeframe you can move your camera after snapping, you know. That's the beauty of it: snap then move your camera to the angle you want.
I made a tiny video to illustrate: http://blip.tv/file/1589988/

For video:
I use a space navigator and set "joystick flycam" then can move independent of the camera.
You can also adjust your camera by a scripted attachment or the UI camera offset (I've never played much with the latter but it might do it).

Ah, I didn't know that option actually existed! Thank you!
