SO.. found a picture of my very first av after the born-witth av (The female furry was what I had).

On the right is me in my Lost Creatures Kani avatar, with clothes from bare rose ^_^ I edited colours on all or it to match.. clothes, hair, ears, eyes. And I'm cuddling on a big buff fox I know.. though you can't see him.

On the left is a pic from today, the one in the 'da sexy avie' thread

Momma like. The newbie av was cute too!

How do you attach a picture to this posting? I tried the copy/paste and nothing... If I click on the Attach Picture button, it asks me to insert the IMG text format...wtf?

Link a url with bracketed img tags. Or click the 'Insert Image' button (looks like a little postcard) above the post entry field and paste the url in there.

Quote someone with a pic to see what the tags look like.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

This is me on day 1, being a goofy n00b, March 2006 I think. Later I made an Alberta shield and wore that for a while. After arriving on the mainland, I created a shirt from one sold at vgcats.com and have been wearing it ever since. My face is default male

When embedding Picasa pics in forums you need to use the following URL format:

Unfortunately it looks like this version of vBulletin doesn't handle it properly, so the above just looks like an URL instead of an embedded pic. (SLUniverse can show Picasa pics fine.)

No problem, love to help

And no, I can't tell you the trick to get your specific link to be used as an embedded picture. I had to save the pic to computer, upload to Flickr (putting it there in private setting so no one else can see it) and then copying the photo link and pasting here with the image tags.

Thank you! It took me a while to find good hair. Prim hair (and prim shoes) make a big difference, don't they!?!

Yes, welcome to the forums.

And I still haven't found a good prim hair piece.

It's harder when you're a guy.... And even harder when you're a tiny (adorable) little kitten...

Tried Gurl 6? The women's selection is the largest I've seen, but I don't know if the guy's selection is as extensive.

Thank-you for the adorable kitten comment

I had actually been a kitty for most of my time in SL as I had no idea how to find stuff that actually worked for my avatar, prim hair and the like.

The guy section for Gurl6 is very tiny, in comparison, and well . . . not exactly my style.

Oh, I love cats...

Well, you can always do a bald head... Quite manly, in an understated way

Probably easier than finding decent male hair!

Thank god for OnRez - it does help to go there, when you're searching for something specific. All that TPing around is *exhausting*
