When i make a avi then save outfit in closet, i cant re~equip it if "missing" items are not in Inventory. Id like to be able to click outfit and equip all missing items. Is this going to be fixed any time soon?


Whoops let me fix that later in the week. I'll add that to the bug list.

Option to favorite avatars seen in Runway?? Please cool


Oh yes, was going to add that feature. Will add that to the todo list.

Just fixed the captcha by the way. Hope it works fine now.

Wondering if the Help link besides the x in the Customize Avatar could be removed. It is a link that does not go anywhere and I keep hitting that instead of the x because it is so close together.
Thank you for reading heart


Not sure which help link you are talking about. Where is the help link located on the screen? Perhaps a screencap would help.

Hi staff~~

A few weeks ago I posted this thread. In short, I was asking for a minimized version of item previews in avatar dressup. Any thoughts on this or the possibility of implementing this in the future? I'm not sure how complex it would be to change!


I can quickly hop in and make the window expanding. Should be a simple addition. I got confused about this feature before I saw the screencap and realized which preview image we're talking about. sweatdrop

Since we have buttons that allow us to turn our avis around and sit down on the avatar dress-up page, could we please get a button that allows us to either save or view our avatars facing either left or right?

Sometimes avatars come out looking completely different based on whether they are facing left or right and I would love for that option in the main dress up area. I mean I could go view how it looks in the avatar builder from all positions but I think it makes more sense if there was a button too in the dress up page.


I'll look into a preview button for horizontal swap. First time I've heard of this request though.

ACHIEVEMENTS.

i thought it'd be a cool idea if we got an achievement for having our avatar liked
a certain amount of times ! even so, i'd love newer ones to have that aren't event
related. will there be more every day achievements to earn ?


That's a great idea. I'll get some graphics ready for it.

Hey guys! I was wondering if it was possible to put a "favorite" button in the runway museums. A lot of people I've noticed don't equip the entry on the day of the contest, and there are SO MANY beautiful creative entries in the museums

Thank you for your time emotion_bigheart


I'll look into adding the button. heart

For some reason, the "Save" button when working with my avatar is glitched, cut in two, one part lower than the other. Minor, but noticeable. I use Firefox, but it happened on Chrome too.


I don't see it on my avatar page. Any chance you can send me a screencap?

Features/Items

I've been using the avatar builder pretty often lately and I found that the custom hairs/wigs and other head items are all in the same section. I would like to suggest that the custom wigs/hairs get their own section because sifting though almost 1000 pages of head items is VERY time consuming.

We will look into added a new section to avatar builder for hairs and wigs.

Gaia Features/ Customize Avatar Page

In the future, are you guys planning on updating the Avatar Customization Page that would enable us to organize our hundreds of items and create our own personal tags for them so we can find them easier in the feature?


The new inventory system allows you to create tons of boxes for storing items, so you can equip from different groups of items that you setup and customize. We will also improve on the search functions too.

Thanks for the update and adding favoriting to the Runway Museum. Wanted to know if anyone has seen the error I outlined here? I found that an error occurs when trying to submit the avatar favoriting form.

It's possible to gift almost anything that you can purchase with CG except closet outfit slots.
Can this become a thing?


Sorry the current system is not a virtual item. Though you can purchase a GC gift card for the person.

Hey staff!

Features - Runway
Museum Favoriting

A while back, favoriting was implemented for previous runway museums. Which is great! Except
It hasn't worked since it was put in sweatdrop
Trying to favorite something through it results in this:
User Image

And the favorite is NOT added.

It's probably a really neat feature! Just wondering if it'll be working anytime soon ah ha.


Uh oh, I forgot to add that to my bug list. I'll have the bug fixed shortly. sweatdrop

The new boxed inventory includes the ability to search for items while excluding things from the results that contain various terms. Could this function please be added to the market place and the avatar builder?


I'm working on an avatar builder that uses the box system, and then a shopping program. These will implement the new search system.
Really? That's very intriguing. By any chance, will the new avatar builder system allow for the creation of boxes of items even among items we do not personally own? And could we put items in more than one box? Like, what if I wanted to put one item I don't own but that I like in a box of favorite blue items and another box of favorite shoe items? (I'm presuming the shopping feature will involve a "Cart" function, as it has been often requested and stated that it was something Gaia was interested in doing.)


No, only items you own. Items can only be in one box. There will be a wish list though. I would like to try adding a shopping cart, but nothing has been decided.

Is there a possibility of implementing a page navigation ("jump to page..." ) option similar to the forums, into avatar builder?

Also, I've noticed this issue with Avatar Builder, where navigation to a previous page via "back 10 pages" and "first page" would refresh the whole site page. But I digress.


That sounds like a useful feature, let me add to the to-do list.

Hello staff~

I'm wondering if there's been any progress with the Outfit Slots? I'm talking about being able to drag and drop outfits between pages and just generally be able to move them around without having to delete and re-save them! I know this has been talked about before, so I'm really hoping this is still a thing!!

Anyways, keep up the great work!!


It's a tougher feature but I can look into a good way to making resorting happen.

Hello everyone! I wanted to ask if you were aware that the item search feature for the dress-up page is broken for any new item released after the "item release date" was added! Its hard to find new items in huge inventories unless you know exactly where you put them eek

I hope its an easy fix!


Uh oh, I'll look into that. I hope it's an easy fix too! sweatdrop

There's been an issue here for the last little bit where newly released items (from within the last 1-2 weeks, I believe) aren't showing up in inventory and dress up search when you try to find them through their tags. If you go through the tabs of your inventory you can find them, but for people with large inventories or just wanting to look for certain colors or items, it's been a real pain in the butt. Can this please be looked into and fixed?


I'll look into it right after ATS today. 3nodding

Hi! First time posting in ATA because I have a small avatar question.

Considering that you'll be bringing HUGE updates to the site soon (very excited!!), will there be an update on the avi's customization? I feel like gaian's should be able to change an avi's skin a lot easier instead of having to manually use potions. Will there be an interchangeable basic skin option in the future? Thanks for reading! gaia_moon


We have some updates planned though anything big are all in the server side of things...

Our current avatar's skin system is a bit limited, where certain colors doesn't work with everything, and that's something which require quite a bit of change before we can have a good system that allows a skin color selector, unfortunately.

Tagging items. Right now, the way the suggested tags through the tag suggestions feature get approved is by having moderators approve them to make sure they're appropriate, both in relevancy and in not being really unsavory things. However, mods are in short supply, very busy, and take a long time to train. Would you guys consider training people specifically just to do tagging approval? I imagine it would take far less time to train people just for this and make a lot more people eligible to do it, thus making the work of improving the tags on items go a lot faster.


That's a good idea and something we wanted to do but haven't gotten around to it. Will run it through Zero Omega right after ATS.

In the Avatar Builder, can you add an option which would let us export the avatar we create in the dressup room?

It could be either directly on the avatar, or in the closet. To make things easier to prevent bugs, you might want to simply have an extra outfit slot in the closet reserved for that purpose.

The dress up engine doesn't allow items that you don't own to be equipped, but maybe in the outfit system. Will look into it.

The feature requires some engineering to allow us to create a new user group to moderate item tags. It's on our todo list and is something we can put into motion as soon as the feature is complete.

Ability to sort outfits should be a feature, I'll see about adding that option, or at least a "move to top" option in the UI.
