Hmmmm, whats the tallest avatar you can make? I already did some tiny ones, now I wanna see just how frickin' huge you can make 'em. Is there a limit to height? I was wanting to try a life-size Godzilla, but not sure if its possible.

I've seen some people that have huge avs. There's one guy, Woulfe, that has an av that's nearly as tall as the Luxor in Furnation Prime.

There's a limit. Play with your sliders to see what you can get. Truly huge avs, though, are done with attachments, which also have a limit, though practicailty is your real limit there.

The largest I've personally seen... is that of my alt. A roleplaying character, one of her abilities is to change size. Her largest size works out to a couple hundred feet - it's effectively a mobile, posable statue, but with various features that make it work pretty much like an avatar within those limits.

Im pretty curious how this is done myself. I always thought it was just offsetting the prims until tried it as a project today. Every time took a step, the joints no longer lined up and did some real funky things. I understand why its happening but not what to do about it. Any gems of knowledge here?
