Yes, I do think there is a bit of a learning curve -- I know it took me some time to figure it out. Alas, as I didn't design the software, there's not too much I can do to change this other than to provide help documents.
Please note that there is no reason for you to go to the Living Avatar site. That is for people like me -- who install the software in their community. They have graphics there, but you can't install them on your own. So stick to passporterboards.com.
While you do have limited access due to being new, you have 9 posts to your credit, which will enable you to get plenty of items for your avatar. So that's not the issue here. My guess is that you haven't purchased any items yet. So here's the simple instructions for creating a Living Avatar:
1. Go to
http://www.passporterboards.com/foru...tars/index.php
2. Click the "Purchase Item With Your Points" link.
3. Find a few things you can afford -- I suggest a body (in the Basic category) and some clothing (also in Basic). To "purchase," just click the "Purchase Now" link below the item displayed.
4. Click the Edit Avatar link near the top of the screen.
5. Click one of the items you purchased in step 3, then click the Add Item button. You'll see it appear in the box on the left. Repeat until you have all items you want showing in your avatar.
6. Use the Layer Up and Layer Down buttons to change the visibility of particular items. Use the Crop Tool to how much of your design you want shown in your avatar. You may resize any object by holding down the Shift key and click/dragging the item.
7. When you have your avatar the way you like it, click Save Avatar.
That's it!
