Suggest it to the designer of the female one, maybe they will make one.

Down with thin! Who is encouraging us to have anorexic images of ourselves?Seriously, I don't know that I would buy an avatar even if I really liked it. There is so much free stuff out there. I prefer downloaded photos or cartoons. Now don't go critiquing my avatar though, it's what I liked best out of what I had.
Are you going to use the default avatar as your own? It might be fun actually to see the change of clothing on it.

I don't thing the curvacious avatar clothes would work with the skinny avatar the skinny clothes don't work on the curvy one anyway. They call it an avatar but it's actually a 3D character you use in chat on IMVU, it's a really interesting way to chat and beats old Instant messengers like yahoo for having fun chatting.

It is more interesting than the old style written word IMing and they are updating all the time so it gets better, it's still in Beta so isn't finished yet.

Thank you for the info on IMVU. I don't IM lately. I'm in a different time zone than the folks I used to IM so we email. My kids might be interested in IMing with me here. You never know - I will check it out and see if an oldster like me can use it. I want to see the 3D avatars anyway.

The range of clothes for it is getting bigger too.

I'm on imvu but it doesn't work most of the time so I gave up. I didn't really think about it till now but probably most people on imvu would like a idealised version of themselves, not sure what I'd do it would depend on what clothes I could get for it.

My name there is Mairi1875, I'm not there most of the time. I have beaten you to starting a bonzo group there but last time I looked there was only 2 of us, looks like imvu is pretty much bonzo fan free at the moment :(

Yeah I think it's aimed at the demographic who would say "who?" when asked who the Bonzo's are lol.

I'd love to use a more curvacious avatar though I agree, the only reason I don't is the difficulty to find accessories or clothes that fit--most of the garters don't mesh correctly on the thighs if it's too curvacious.
My pet peeve, though, is when the outfit i bought makes the avatar's waist super skinny but the buttocks extremely huge--i feel that makes the avatars even MORE distorted in proportions -.-

It's hard to get shoes as well they interfere with the legs if you aren't wearing jeans, I haven't looked for a while now but the clothing range for the curvacious avatar is growing all the time.
