Hullo.

Have you ever let a non-gaian dress up your avatar, just for kicks?
You know, just sat them down at your computer, opened the site to the dress-up page, showed them how it worked and let them have at it (with or without saving)?

What were the results?

I let an 11-year-old play dress-up with my avatar once, and what she came up with was... oddly very retro gaian. She seemed to like all those old 'angelic' blue-white items and big chunky things.
Then she re-did everything and put together a 'goth' avatar with that demonic anklets pose where you're like, chained to the ground?

Basically, 11-year-old girls are spooky.

Such a fun idea 4laugh
I don't have someone non-Gaian that would want to dress my avatar up though.

No.

Plus the fact that we learned to dress ourself and we'll be damned before we let other people do it for us.

Now I want to do that! I think I let a kid choose my Neopets avi way back in the day, that's the closest I can think of.

So much this, nicely said Aliquis.

I am way too particular in the way I dress my avi to even attempt to let someone else dress Velvet. It's just cringe inducing when I think about it and Oh my I think I feel the Forrest Whittaker eye coming on.

Yes I allow my little sister to play with my account. The first time, she proceeded to make this avi as ugly as possible just to see how I'd react. xD

Nah. The only time I ever let someone else on my account was back in... 2004? and it was a mule account. We had down time in art club that day and he thought Gaia was interesting after hovering over my shoulder. So I logged onto my mule and let him dip around until the afternoon buses arrived to take us home.

I have, but it's too much trouble now with multi-pose items. Gaians have a general idea of the poses in their items but it's very limiting for a non-Gaian.

I don't think I ever saved those creations.

I mean, just letting them play around with it would be ok, but saving it or using it would make me die. Too fussy for that s**t.

Super Spirit

That's a fun idea!

Yeah, had pretty much the same experience when I let the 11yo play around.

"See that little blue-gold box thingy? If you click on it there's like 1000 seemingly-unrelated items but you can only use one of them at once."

I've let my brother dress me up before, and he almost always goes for steampunk or "anime protagonist" looks vuv

'Das social suicide right thar.

Also I have like.. a gagillion items/poses.
Well probably half as many as most people around here.
But it'd take them ages to just look at everything. Even longer to put something together.
Plus I think the layering system + lack of item tags would confuse the hell out of most non-Gaians.
