oh boy! is it Q+A time with roland? I have a question! Will be each be
able to register 1 custom avatar per citizen account, or will we be able to switch around as we see fit? Or, what it we register one file name, then upload a new file and don't notify COF about it? grover [View Quote] > Subject: > Re: Custom avs are here! - yippee! > From: > Roland Vilett <roland at lmi.net> > > Okay. > > -Roland > [View Quote] deanNov 30, 1998, 9:41pm
I didn't think to ask that because it was not my major concern. I assume
that when an avatar is first downloaded it is tagged or the url is recorded or something. I don't know, but I would assume it is automatic. [View Quote] > oh boy! is it Q+A time with roland?

Wow that's weird, because when he first told me in Beta(The world beta) few
months ago, he said it was going to be universe based. After I said would it be toggled in worlds? he told me that it would be universe based, otherwise we would get cust avs that work in some worlds but not others. that's pretty much exactly what he told me (I am paraphrasing of course) Guess he changed his mind. later -raiven- Also, about grovers post, I asked if we could use more than one cust av at a time, and he said something like "Oh shoot, more than one? well that pretty much throws a wrench in all my plans" Who knows if he is going to try for more than one? or just stick with his plans, which have probably changed anyway.

*puts on his padding*
Okey, this may disturb nearly none of you. So don't brace yerself. i hope he NEVER add the cutom object/avatar features. Why? Because it will bring a whole new way of vandalizing, responsibility, making up too much lag,etc etc. Say this avatar sports a giant nude pic walking around GZ, or it has a zillion vertexes, or it says like 'Boo hoo to COF' etc etc. i'd hate it! truly hate it! cheese -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Check out my homepage, it is chocked full of awesome graphics! http://thecheese.home.ml.org Maybe check out my town in AW!

Not in the way he's planning to impliment tho. In the current hash, it sounds
like COF must approve the custom avatar before they will allow the user to assign it as their custom av. From his "aw shit" response, it sounds almost like he's adding another line to the citizen registry for the avatar URL- this would be a "simple" way of working the registration, and keep the vulgar/buggy avs out. grover [View Quote] > *puts on his padding* > Okey, this may disturb nearly none of you.
