Thanks, but my forum avatar isn't the same as my SL avatar.

Ok, here's the picky bits.

One, your face is great. I wouldn't change a thing. And in the future, when you're skin-shopping, look for something that compliments what you've already built there.

Your boobs do look just a smidge too "blocky". It might be that you haven't given them enough slope or "sag" (I think that's the slider). At some point in Appearance settings, insufficient sag will end up giving you the "too many implants" look as your boobs ride too high on the chest. I'm not saying they should sag to your knees But breasts look better with a natural slope to them.

Can't see your butt there, but from the front it looks like you're close. I will say, however, that your waist could use a couple of notches on the slider. I was afraid of giving my shape too much natural body fat for a long time, but when I started playing with it I realized that *some* body fat actually helps fill out the form and make it look better all around. Not too much, but a few points on the slider really make a difference.

You may already know this, but I'll add it anyway for random readers: The first thing you should always do when you intend to alter your shape is to "Save As" and give it a new name. Then if you want to go back to your old shape, it's still in your inventory and can be switched easily at will. I normally have 2 current shapes: one with my regular bum at 38 or 40, for pants and shorts. The other is my "skirt bum", where I shrink it down to 30 or lower so system mesh skirts don't make me look like there's a caboose following me around. I name my skirt shape "Cindy 12-30-08 butt 30" for example to give it a date and the slider I changed. Then it's a simple matter to just double click on the shape I want for each occasion.
