How to Post Your Combos ❣
How you want to present your combos is totally up to you, these are just the most commonly seen ways, provided with tips to give your combos the maximum impact! Remember, it is a requirement in this thread to post a picture of the combo.
General Tips
✮ Keep your post simple. If someone has to search your post for the combo/item list, they'll probably give up. On that note...
✮ Always include an item list. No matter how common the items are.
✮ Always include a body. Just seeing 2+ items floating in air doesn't help anyone. People can't tell how the items fit on an avi, exactly where they go, what gender the item goes on, etc. Tektek's Mannequin (Fake White) base is popular (Body > Type > Special > 3rd from the end). Just a plain Tektek body, or even your naked avi base will do just fine, though.
✮ Some items look different on males than on females. If the combo is different (or even the same) , it's very nice to include images of both, or make a little note.
✮ If your combo is/adds a small detail, a before/after or with/without is great.
The Simple Entry
Silme_Ethel
Ninja Fish Shadow Gear + Anesidora's Woe (Envy's Guard)
Plain avi dressed in nothing but the combo. Often a tektek with the Mannequin (white) body or just a skin tone, may or may not include hair/eyes. The focus is entirely on the combo. This is the most popular way to post, and other people really like seeing this format.
The Cut-Out
Choco_Slushie
Mana Seed + Opal Borealis + Gogh Reed (clip)
For those of you who feel colorful (;
The rest of the avi doesn't matter, so why include it? Just a small snippet of where the combo is.
The Complete Avi Post
Joshua84
courtly coiffure + blue acinonyx + checkmate + keen bandit + frigid night jewel + seracila pendant
the gravedigger + fremere's guard + black bow tie + steel-plated ninja band + atrum egg + kung fu panda (black belt) + silent night + oh my gumball + angelic manner
The most controversial. Be sure to ALWAYS make the actual combo stand out in the avi, and the combo list needs to be more prominent than the 'rest of the avi' list (and yes, both lists need to be included). This type of post should
never be utilized as an opportunity to showcase whatever avi making skills you may have/think you have.
Thanks Silme_Ethel, Choco_Slushie, Joshua84 for not getting mad at me for stealing your combos from the thread! If there is an issue, please feel free to PM me, and I'll either take your name out, or find a different combo to use, whichever you want <3
