Some things you need: Custom Skin Figure Hair Unique Eyes Fasion Accessorys Attire Footwear Couple of Hours Some Linden Dollars
First you need a really good skin & shape! I put these two together because they go hand in hand. A good shape and skin are essential to both men and women who want to look good in Second Life. It is important especially if you plan to run a business.
But it is also important because how you look impacts how people react to you. Few people take a basic "Ruth" seriously. Ruth is the term used for new players who have the basic and somewhat hideous basic skin and body shape.
You can do this easily! All you do is use the searches built into the SL client and do a search for skins & shapes. Most of these cost between $L500 and $L3000 lindens.
There are cheaper deals out there, but be conservative if they do not allow you to see a demo of the skin or shape. Just like in the real world the people in Second Life are not always very kind to others.
You do not even have to stay human! If you would like to you can search for "Furry" or "Neko" and become an animal like character with your avatar. There is a large number of residents who have chosen to become a Neko or Furry Avatar.
The next thing you want is great hair. The basic hair is very plain and will not help you set up your individual personality very well. So go shopping around to see which hair creators are best for both price and quality.
There is no need to settle on just one store, but if you like most of the styles there, you will have a lot of hair that exactly matches color wise too! Again to find hair you simply do searches in the built in search feature of Second Life.
After skin, hair, and shape, you will need an animation over-ride, also referred to as an "AO". By now you have noticed that you are walking around like you're stuck to a rigid board and have a limp. Not very flattering
Nevertheless an AO will fix that and add your personal style! Searching for AO or Animation Override can bring good results. There are hundreds of animation over-ride models out there for you to choose from, and each remarkably has a theme like "naughty girl" or "warrior male".
So now you look pretty good and you are no longer walking around SL like a pirate with a peg-leg. The final items you will want to acquire are clothing and footwear.
Shopping for the perfect items can take you a while, but it can be extremely fun! Nice clothing from good designers will run you from $L100 to $L3000 per outfit.
The standard outfit tends to cost about $L400. There are some free items out there that are not too big if you?re on a tight budget as well. I hope that this has helped and you will have fun during your time in Second Life!
Some things to remember:
Prices can vary greatly, but you can find quality on a budget. Search the last few pages of the classified, prices are usually lower. If a price seems to outrageous.. Watch your wallet! If a photo seems unrealistic, avoid the product If a photograph looks photo shopped, use caution! - 15478
