Living avatars - 05-05-07, 08:12 PM

I have added a new feature to the site called 'living avatars' for premium members. This feature allows you to create custom avatars by 'buying' items (i.e. dolls, backgrounds, hats, blahblahblah) with 'points' derived from your post count in the professional forums.

Please note that it is still early days with it and as such, it isn't 100% perfect yet. But hey, it's fun enough to use

Here are a couple things we have noticed during the test:
1- The crop tool can be resized if you hold the shift button down.
2- Whatever you click on comes to the front (this can be frustrating when you have a background as it ALWAYS seems to come back up)

I am sure there are others, but no major show stoppers.

Please do NOT ask for certain items to be added, I really don't have time to customise the graphics.

To access your living avatar, edit your avatar and click on the correct link. If you don't see it, you are not a premium geek
