I think your loli imp is well proportioned Imnotgoing, I have only seen a few, not smaller, but shorter characters, that are thought out in the same depth you have given your shape.
Shorter, taller, personally I tried the middle of the road height and felt like a lemming.

From: Darien Caldwell If that is true, then they messed up on the avatar, because a 5'6" avatar in SL is proportioned like a midget. A properly proportioned Human figure in SL ends up being well over 6' tall which is why people with an eye for proper proportions are accused of being too tall. So it's either one or the other.
Either the meter is off, or the avatar scale is off. Of course it is when you JUST adjust the height meter, because the basic avatar's proportions aren't that of a 5'6" avie. To get proper proportions when YOU adjust the height, YOU must also adjust arms, legs, width, etc.

To get proper proportions when YOU adjust the height, YOU must also adjust arms, legs, width, etc. Well, that's pretty much what I did, and at 85 pretty much across the board (also thinner across the board than the Arnold wannabes), I still run into the problem - just not as much as the default size of the purchased avatar. And 85 across the board is smaller than every single adult male avatar that I have ever purchased in SL. Fortunately, my favorite IS mod, or I would be stuck much taller. My wife thinks what is funny that the women are also tall, but half of the shoes (or more) are for size 1 feet. Tall, top heavy and little feet - a real danger if they ever morph into RL...

Just consider the advantages of being a tall man. All the things you can reach, all the women (or men) you can kiss, all the dance balls you can share, and what is that saying about the size of the hands and feet mean what?
So, go explore somewhere else and enjoy the pleasure of being vertically endowed.

Normal sized AVs are not the only ones with camera bouncing problems
08-03-2008 09:26
Even as a tiny there are places where the SL main camera bounces like crazy. Tightly built structures of any kind drive the camera nuts, there are also tiny made strcutures that cause this. For example a tube system that is 2 meters in diameter (like the one at Raglan Commons). But several tinies got resourceful and made tiny cam HUDs (like the one in my TAO2) to set the camera at a lower fixed location. Some of these HUDs are free and full permed, so you can adjust them to what you like.
