I came up with this idea a few nights ago, but was unsure how to word it. Now I do.

What type of avatars do you guys like to make/see? Any particular colors you try to stray away from/attracted to?

Feel free to discuss anything avatar related. Maybe offer ideas to others/challenges, etc.

I lean toward more refined, realistic designs and avoid the clunky, chunky-looking ones. I also try to avoid overcrowding my avatar, as I still want the overall appearance of him to be easy on the eyes.

I dunno. I usually try to keep the wolf ears, but I've thought about reaching out to doing different things like cosplay. I made my avatar Edward Elric once, but I'm too lazy to actually do anything else.

In the past I used to do some wolf type stuff. Now I am moving into other things and bouncing around. This times theme just happened to be pink fairy.

Dressing up my avatar is my favorite thing to do and it gets changed daily. The past week have all been Five Nights at Freddy's stuff because the game dropped; before that I was playing with Sainte Ciel/Rosamund AU ideas because my primary quest objects are those items. Sometimes I wish I could settle on one thing but I'm always getting new ideas!

So there's a new item called Supplicant Prince with the description "the prince, troubled by rumors of a coup, brings her offerings to the prophet to gain insight into her future..." One of the poses is called "binding top." I like the look of it and hope it's a sign of Gaia trying to offer more gender-neutral/trans*/etc items.

EDIT: according to another user, "the artist actually envisioned the character as bigender. 3nodding " YAY!

Edit again: and here's the link to comment from artist Rejam!

That was interesting, thanks for sharing!

My favourite colour themes are usually accompanied by black. I like to mix red + black, purple + black and black and white. I also like a bit of neon green and neon or azure blue. But I like colours like dark green and brown occasionally too. I usually dress my avatar with some kind of horns and a tail, since my username refers to a demon. So it's my recurring avatar theme I guess.

I think my colour choices reflect quite well what I like IRL too. I try to avoid yellow and pastel pink. To me the worst combination ever is pastel blue, yellow and red together.
Like this is a cool painting but the colours make me want to shout "how awful":
