Hi, I'd like to play with building abstract avatars. Is there a kit or a set of sample full-perm avatars that folks use to get started, or is all this very proprietary stuff? I've never noticed one at NCI.

I'm thinking of things like:

> An anim to scrunch your avatar up really small
> Anims to push your avatar underground or high in the air
> Kit of useful invisiprims
:)

If you're hang'n around NCI... Ask Raymond... I think he knows where to get a full-perms tiny avatar construction kit. (^_^)

For elevation animations, I kinda think people have made their own based on the avatar they're making. But, I could be wrong. (o.o)

And, for invisiprims, just ask around. Someone will give you a good script. I have one myself that works drag-and-drop without having to set up any textures. You can use any prim of your choice and build away. (^_^)

Pick up my freebie attach indicator avatar in my store, SLX, or OnRez and yank the script from any of the invisiprims I'm using on that. The avatar is no-transfer, but the script should be full perms. (^_^)y
