My Dark Reflections

To customize your avatar just use the inventory tab on the messenger.
You can change what your avatar wears with that. Its very easy.
If you want more stuff to wear all you need to do is purchase it from the catalog.

You'll find furry ears, tails, wings, etc.  in the accessories.
The female catalog is more organized and has a larger selection than the male one does.

To perform actions and such all you do is click on an avatar and select what you want to do from the little menu that pops up.

The rule regarding not saying bored was most likely set in place because it's very annoying when you have a bunch of teens
saying it all the time. Plus it does have a negative effect on conversations and stuff.

You can find different stuff people have made for your avatar by doing quick catalog searches. You can then buy anything you want using credits, such as things like this skunk skin:

IMVU is made by the same people that designed SecondLife, but it's meant to be set up in a much different way. The avatar outfits and stuff are designed much better, and theres a much larger range of interaction between avatars because IMVU's focus is on the actual people instead of the little digital "world."
