We are now releasing the Human Avatars! These will be displayed around the site (currently only in the forums).
You create and dress up these avatars by using the wardrobe page, and add items to it from your inventory :)
At the moment most of the clothes on the site should work. This is not a perfect system, and if some things don't layer correctly,don't be afraid to put in a bug report!
This is more of a testing phase, to work out the kinks and add new features to this system.
Have fun dressing up!

Two questions:<br />
<br />
If not then can you add a "are you sure" feature like there is with plushies.<br />
<br />
Sorry for all the people bashing this but could you answer these two questions. Thanks.
<br />
Two questions:<br />
- Can we get rid of our human avatars after we make one?<br />
<br />
- Can we remove items out of our wardrobe after we put them in? <br />

Sirvi, it DOES say that most (not all) are ok.
LooneyLupeGirL, I really don't think this is going to have as large of an effect as you think it will. Why would younger users (or anyone, really) flock to the site just for an <b>avatar</b> feature? And, as an adult user, I can honestly say I wouldn't leave the site just because more 'underage' users joined. Personally, I find that to be a ridiculous reason to leave the site.<br />
<br />
As for the servers, didn't Keith say not too long ago that there will be some downtime in January because the servers are being updated or something?

Oh ew.. I do hope it becomes possible to remove items from the wardrobe....~shudders slightly~ I really do... and if it happens that we can, a quick stock feature would be lovely~L~ .. you know.. faster at least.~winks~

There will be a 'remove from wardrobe' feature for items added tomorrow.<br />

That was fun, and until I can get some of the gallery hoarders to cough up a few things(cackles, yeah right!), I think I am content.<br />

Nice feature Keith/Team... <br />

Ok, ignore my last question. I'm an idiot. <img src=/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif border=0><br />
<br />
So I have discovered that if you delete your avatar, the clothes in your wardrobe will still be there after the avatar is recreated, whether they were being worn at the time of deletion or not. Good to know, but I still hope there is/will be a way to remove clothes from the wardrobe. Especially if we can't see what certain rare things will look like BEFORE trying them on. : clings to Mystical Feli Headband

Okay <label title="header=User invalid body=[<center><img src="http://subeta.org/images/icons/gold.gif><b>LooneyLupeGirl</b><br>Member<br><b>Name</b>: Looney Loves Polar Bears<br><b>Posts</b>: 56<br>"]" class="tip"><a href="/users/LooneyLupeGirl"><img src="/images/icons/gold.gif" border="0">LooneyLupeGirl</a></font></label><br />

Yes, adults can enjoy this site. Considering that most of the clothing items at the moment are geared toward adults (ie: lace bras, fishnet, etc), I don't see where that is a problem. I don't see how this feature is anymore child-like, than any new feature that would include working with <b>pets</b>. And I'd also like to ask how you would like us to make the site more adult-oriented, while still being focused on pets?<br />
<br />
But, let me address your issues.<br />
<br />
So yes, we have thought this through, and we will keep working on this project. While you might not enjoy it, other users do. And as always, we are working on new content that we hope everyone will enjoy.

<br />
But, let me address your issues.<br />
- Again, I don't see how this will happen. Most, if not all, of the clothing items are items that adults will enjoy more than children. <br />
- As I've said multiple times, we are getting sever upgrades this month. We are moving to a grid-based system, which means that there will be virtually no downtime.<br />
- If adults want to leave the site, that is there choice. However, while subeta is dedicated to it's user-base, we have to continue making choices that we think <b>all</b> users, both current and future will enjoy/benefit from. While it's clear that you will not enjoy this feature, you may enjoy one of the other features we have planned for the coming months. But, as you can see from the comments, most users are enjoying this feature, and will enjoy this feature.<br />
<br />

<br />
the teeny boppers are more likely to like this feature.<br />
<br />
not saying dress up can't be fun, but...<br />
<br />
whatever. i'm not the only one who doesn't like it. just i'm vocal about it.<br />

SWEEEEET. Now I think you should come out with some more pants, and especially some shorts!?<br />
<br />
This will keep us busy for a long while. Good luck with getting everything as perfect as, uh- possible. and thanks for keeping the site interesting. <img src=/images/smilies/smiley_xface.gif border=0>

One would think that after a YEAR, they would have thought about the impact it would make on the site. <br />
<br />
<br />
I am liking this very much, but am also wondering and hoping like a few others that there will be an option to remove items from our wardrobe. I purchased a barely buyable item that I dislike on my avatar. I assumed things could be removed to be resold since there is no are you sure this can't be undone pop up like everything else that is irreversible.<br />
<br />
i am hoping this was an oversight and a remove from wardrobe feature will be added. Other then that definite thumbs up to the staff on this one.

Ok get mad flame me w/e i don't really care anymore .. this has got to be said..<br />
<br />
Ok first this site is concidered a pg-13 site.. meaning adults could actually enjoy this site without having the same issues as another petsite..<br />
and yes i know the artist worked hard on this ..<br />
but i must say this site keeps getting more and more child like every day... this is only going to do a number of things when word gets out..<br />
this list could go on forever but im ending it here..<br />
<br />
Seriously did you even think about what this would truely do to the site (like actually think it all the way through and weigh all possiblities) before doing it??<br />
next time someone tells me don't worry you will be excited and like all the changes we have planned for 2007 (or any other year for that matter) I am gonna tell them yea right tell it to the wall.

- attract alot more underage users..<br />
- cause the servers to crash even more (due to more users).<br />
- make most of the adults leave this site (cause of 1 & 2 etc..)..<br />
this list could go on forever but im ending it here..<br />

jakdacroweLooks like you need to add clothes to your wardrobe first before playing with it. lol<br />
Anyway. YEY.<br />
<br />
Having pet dressups would be cool. But obviously the artists would have a very hard time drawing ALL the pets and ALL the clothes one by one for each pet.<br />
And maybe future pets would take a MUCH longer time to be released.<br />
<br />
Human avatars ONLY please. <img src=/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_dead.gif border=0>

Aww, now I know why all of my Tight Black Pants got sold so fast. Darn, I should have at least kept one of them. xD
Could some of the questions about this feature be answered. And if you can't take items out then shouldn't there be a "are you sure" feature like with plushies.

btw keith - why did you block my AIM in the first place? i disappear 8 months ago on a work practicum and i get back and i'm blocked..
I've created my avatar... so why won't anything load on my wardrobe page? <img src=/images/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif border=0> wants to plaaaaaaay<br />
<br />
Oh well, someday I'm sure... meanwhile, thank you Keith and all others who worked on this feature for us! I'm sure it took a ton of work to complete! ♥

luckymax - dont tell users to hush up if they dont like something - if people arent vocal then how are staff supposed to know when the MAJORITY is unhappy?<br />
<br />
personally i cant hate on this; its a good idea and it brings a purpose to hundreds of items on the site, better balancing the economy.. eventually.<br />
<br />
and i'm the first one to complain if theres something i dont like about subeta - so take this comment into thought.

I'm having a blast with this xD But a question if I may? (and sorry if it's already been aswered) Anyway we can remove clothing from out Wardrobe? I don't want to put an expensive piece of clothing in my wardrobe and then find out it looks bad on me (-holds tanktop up- I knew I shouldn't have eated so much on Christmas e.e;;; ) that and my clothing pile is getting big really quick because I can't seem to make up my mind x3 So being able to remove stuff would be nice :3
Oh could there someday be a feature of adding a pet to be with the human avatar? Then it could look like our pets are with us! <img src=/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif border=0>

Lets weigh the options <label title="header=User invalid body=[<center><img src="http://subeta.org/images/icons/gold.gif><b>Nightflame</b><br>Member<br><b>Name</b>: <br><b>Posts</b>: 101<br>"]" class="tip"><a href="/users/Nightflame"><img src="/images/icons/gold.gif" border="0">Nightflame</a></font></label>. <br />

We have:<br />
A - Human avatars, with two bases. Thats a maximum of two images for each clothing item.<br />
B - Pet avatars, with 50+ bases (and a new one each time a new pet is released). That means each clothing item would have had to have been drawn for every single pet, plus future pets.<br />
<br />
For a team of volunteer artists, that seems like a lot of work, on top of items, and pets. <br />
<br />
We do have a way to implement pets into this, which you will see in the future.

Pets in clothes = millions of images for every pet/color combo, tons of work, and really scary. And maybe he felt like having avatars... That's why.
:3 this is such a cool idea, the clothes items are no longer useless <img src=/images/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif border=0>
Nightflame - can't you see how excited the staff must have been to release this... after working on it for almost an ENTIRE YEAR! <br />
<br />
If you don't like it... fine... you can't please everyone.. But go moan to someone else. We don't care.

Well thank you for all your hard work. This new feature is great! I finally get to dress up as a kumos xD
I'm referring to the fact that this site is not catering to PETS anymore.<br />
<br />
Why didn't you let us dress up our pets instead? I don't understand your logic. <br />
