I am so happy you are finding this info helpful. Yes, unfortunately the learning curve of SL is very steep and it does take a very long time to figure out how to do things. It was the same for the main avatar when she first started out, believe me... The green-screen is something that I know from video editing, so it is not something that would normally be associated with SL. It just occurred to me one day whether this might not be used - and sure enough it seemed to the job. You can pick up free poses (not animations btw, what you need are poses) at all the NCI freebie walls. Unfortunately you need to try them all out first and most of it is pretty much useless. As you need to do indeed with all the hunting over at Yadni's junkyard... ... And thank you soooo much for telling me about Yak & Yeti's. I went over there earlier today and I will be writing a post about the place as soon as I can. It is utterly amazing what she has in there. And all of it free? I did make a very big donation, which I believe goes to a non-profit organization for Tibet. I still felt quite guilty though, considering that I basically emptied out the store. ;-) ... </strong> My pleasure! I am so happy you are finding this info helpful.

I've never used a green screen, or a pose stand in that way, and it is tedious to position everything and then my avatar moves or looks away. Looks like your method will resolve that problem. Can't wait to try it out.</strong> Thanks for the info! I’ve never used a green screen, or a pose stand in that way, and it is tedious to position everything and then my avatar moves or looks away.
