Second Lifers Get Photo Realistic Avatars Tomorrow

Metaversed’ 57 Miles reports on CyberExtruder launching an island that will get all the residents photo realistic first life like head skins. That is, if you supply a good photograph and 15 dollars. If you tag along on his guided tour tomorrow, you can even get free head a free head. Hmm, interesting, right?

My to do list:

  • Take RL mug shot without distortion and harsh schading.
  • Retouch RL head photograph in PS to my liking.
  • Study SL body skin neckline.
  • Retouch retouched RL head photograph by adding white and black spots to my RL skin carefully placing them so they match my SL skin´s neckline.
  • Drag along on the trip.
  • Get a Second Life head skin based on my retouched version of my retouched real life photograph.

Hmmm. Sounds a bit all to weird, no? I like the idea & technology, and I think for the RL to FL and reversed business peepz this might be handy, but for me? I like my b&w spots (rarely spotted in pink&white spots nowadays), my pale, collageen lips and faulty eye lashes.

Two One positive things about this according to Vint:

You get .jpg file for the head mailed to you. This means you can add make up, a tan, freckles, scars, … to your liking and just upload all the different versions. So a change of make up will only cost you 10L$. If anybody has an original .jpg file, *coughs* Mr. Miles? *coughs* I’d be glad to give it a try and promis you won’t end up looking like a panda. This also means that if you are a bit intelligent, which I assume you are if you were able to get off help island, you’ll give the CyberExtruder people a photograph without make up. Believe me if I say adding it in PS is way more easy then removing it. Ok, so the ‘editing plan’ works: proof and some more proof.

If this works well, the scoreboard on ‘options to make your avatar look just like your RL you for not to much money’: SL 1, Sony’s Home 0 (as far as we know). 😉 Nvm. Camron, why do you always spoil all fun? *sobs*
