FOR MALES:


Foot Particles by Whystler

No, it's not some strange disease or condition... It's just you producing the magic that we all know is in you! This product allows you to wear star particles that stream out from your feet away from your body and then upwards.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS BEFORE BUYING:


YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE THE LATEST IMVU CLIENT FOR THIS TO WORK (build 388.8).
Download it here (http://www.imvu.com/installers/InstallIMVU_388.8_full.exe)
Also, it's possible that some computers may not be able to handle the functionality yet.
Rest assured that if your product does not function today, that it will soon in the near future.

BUY WITH THIS IN MIND. REFUNDS WILL NOT BE GIVEN.

This piece is especially meant for texture artists to derive from! Here's a little tutorial:

*-First you need to make a particle picture. It can be whatever you like, but it must be in the PNG file format. Yellow Stars, Pink Hearts, Blue Diamonds, Green Clovers, whatever you like! The PNG format is nice because it's one texture into which you can build transparency where you need it. People make a lot of stickers this way. Depending on which paint program you use, one usually creates the opacity map in the paint program, applies it to the base texture, and exports it as a PNG. VERY IMPORTANT: Your texture's dimensions must each be a power of two (ie. 2x2x2x2x2x2x2=128 , so 2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256, and 512 are all acceptable sizes for sides of the rectangle or square that is your texture)

*-Place this file in the texture field of the Particle Effects tab of the IMVU previewer. (bug: as of this writing, when you save your cfl file the texture file name will dissapear from the texture field in the particle effects tab. Do not worry about this. Your texture file remains attached and will work)

*-Next, choose a node for your particle effect. I have built 3 nodes into this object in varying heights and rotations. Here is a list of what each node will do:
node01 - places your particles just above the feet with particles streaming out and floating UP at the edges.
node02 - places your particles just around the hips with particles streaming out and floating DOWN at the edges.
node03 - places your particles just behind the head with particles streaming out and floating FORWARD at the edges, like an aura or halo.

*-After these two parameters are filled, then you can test your particle effect in the CLIENT, not the Previewer, because as of this writing you cannot see particle effects in the previewer.

*-If after viewing your product in the CLIENT, you want to change it, go back to the previewer and make your changes and resubmit, but undertsand that in order to see your product updated you will need to refresh your experience by deleting the appropriate pickle file from your computer. There is more information about deleting pickle files in the IMVU forums.

Don't get greedy, get creative and then everyone can benefit from our art for a reasonable price. Deriving from this page also let's me see which products I have given license to use this mesh.
