The Captain Set
(Despite the avie shown in this video, this is for Men AND Women)

Are sane and logically conversations bringing down your virtual insanity? Well break free of the bounds of mental health with the Captain Set. This bizarre set will have you commandeering the chat-room like any good lunatic, complete with Captain's Wheels and Spyglass. Look in vain for intelligent and interesting people with the Spyglass. Or change the direction of the discussion with the Wheel. And if those both fail you, just Sail Away on a search for better people to talk to. Either way, at least you'll be having fun, with the Captain Set!

Commands:
"Steer" - Gives you a wheel with which to Steer by
"Search" - Gives you a Spyglass with which to Search by
"SailAway" - Gives you the Freedom to find new ports of call!

PLEASE NOTE: This item Remains INVISIBLE UNTIL USED! After use it disappears again, so you won't know you have it on until you active it. The Fireball works equally well for Male and Female avies, but is found under Male Gloves. Blame IMVU's poor catalog system for that one. This item also conflicts with any item that uses Channel 28 in the avie's body. Extremely few items replace that body channel, but if one of your items does it will either remove this item, or the other item. If it's not working, make certain you didn't accidentally take it off during your last outfit change. To ensure your satisfaction with this product, please use TRY IT before you BUY IT! There will be NO REFUNDS if it doesn't fit your needs.

Prefer old, sun bleached wood to fresh pine? Spyglass too shiny for you? And how about some SOUND EFFECTS??! Well then, quit complaining and DERIVE it! Make your own version, and even sell it the catalog for a small markup over my original, and keep the extra profits for yourself! You can express yourself AND earn credits at the same time. How's that for a sweet deal? You'll need a full account on IMVU, as well as a copy of Previewer. You can find out more about Deriving on the IMVU's Education Center. Here are the templates you'll need below:

To add sound, I highly recommend you download and use Audacity. It's a free sound editing tool that can export out OGG sound files. OGG sound files compress down to less then 1/10th the file size of WAV files. SO USE OGG FILES!!! You can download it here:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

Please keep your sound volume levels within acceptable limits. DON'T MAKE YOUR SOUND AS LOUD AS POSSIBLE!!! Loud sounds will annoy other users, and reduce your sales. Also avoid using Looping sounds, as IMVU has no controls to stop Looping sounds once they start playing.
