(This version is for Male Avies Only! Female version sold separately)
Do 5 fingers seem excessive to you? How about 3? Cut down on those repetitive digits with the Pig Hands. Designed for Orcs, Trolls, Demons, and other humanoid monster-types, the Pig Fingers are consist of two 3-fingered, AnySkin hands, with texture mapped claws and a coating layer. It's the perfect crowning touch to any monstrously good avie!
The Pig Hands come with one command: "Slasher"
PLEASE NOTE: The Pig Fingers can only be used by Male avies. It won't work with Female Avies. There is currently no Female version but I can make one if requested. It also completely replace the avie's Hands, so it won't work with any other hand replacement items, like Gloves. If you're in doubt about it fitting your avie and your outfit correctly, please use TRY IT before you BUY IT! There will be NO REFUNDS if it doesn't work with your existing outfit or avie. So use TRY IT first!
Wish those claws were glowing? The Hand was dripping Bloody? And how about some Sound Effects?? Well then quite 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:
The core of the Pig Hands is AnySkin, which means it's set by whatever skin the player chooses to use. These templates cover the Coating and Claw parts, which you can alter in your Derive.
This is the Texture map for the Claws. You can use this image to do simple changes, like altering the color, or adding blood/poison effects:
The Claws have an Opacity layer, but I have not included the image here as it's completely white. An Opacity layer is a black and white silhouette that controls how much of a model is visible. It matches the shape and layout of the Texture map. By creating your own Opacity layer image, you could make the claws glassy, or even remove them entirely, by using shades of gray or black. Look over the Wireframe template below if you wish to make your own Opacity layer
This is the Wireframe template for the Claws. This shows you how the Opacity layer and Texture map attach to the model's structure. You'll need this if you wish to create an original Texture map or Opacity layer:
This is the Texture map for the Coating. The Coating is a mirror image of each hand, slightly scaled up and covering the AnySkin core of the hands. I've also animated it, to create a dripping mud effect. You could use this layer to create lightning, dripping blood, slime, fire, or hundreds of other animated effects. Or simply remove it entirely with a black Opacity layer:

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 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.
Also please keep in mind that Deriving is not the same as using extraction tools and resubmitting. When you use tools to extract and resubmit my items without using IMVU's Deriving function, you remove me from earning anything off the sale of my items. So you're effectively STEALING from me. Not only will this get your account revoked, your credits ceases, your PayPal account shutdown, and get you into all kinds of legal troubles... it's also just plain wrong. Please don't steal from me. Please use the "Derive from Product" link and keep your account honest. You profit, I profit, and your honesty insures I'll be making many more wonderful things for you to derive from for many years to come.
