Stop Relying on that body SL! And Start Serving IMVU Looks ...

Pro: Cost of credits are lower so your "inworld" dollar goes further. Designers update their catalog almost daily with new looks & accessories. Mesh items can be re-textured easily by many designers so you have more variety, styles, and textures to choose from. Items can be tried on in game via a shopping viewer. You can try and buy multiple items from various designers at once with no“demo” labels to interfere with the styling. Once added to your inventory, an item can be easily found and worn without unpacking and adding. Inventory is very easy to search, and organize. You can get dressed in your viewer before entering into a chat or a chat room of people.

Cons: Designers often leave. Items cannot easily be layered. Overlap causes distortion. Items cannot be transferred to friends. Inworld stores and large scale shopping events aren't popular. In world stores link to "try-on" in catalog. Shopping is not a social experience.
