Some Avatar Suggestions, Bird, Lizard, Pig? Options

[Caelan Hunter]

I'd like to see an Avian (bird) avatar - a FREE avatar, not a digo. And for those of you who're planning on jumping down my throat with, "But we have the PHOENIX, duh!" Consider this:

1. A Phoenix is a mythical creature
2. To get a Phoenix on Furc, you have to pay for it
3. A Phoenix really only looks like a Phoenix, and it has the ability to flame, which doesn't make it suitable for someone who wants to play as - say - an African Gray parrot.

A free avian avatar, in my opinion, would resemble something like the Stork costume Robin Hood wore in the Disney movie. (Google it if you don't remember. =P ) Something that is generic enough to cover all manner of bird species, and is FREE to use. The wing primaries could look like the fingers on the hand, rather than the avatar having two arms AND an extra pair of wings.



Also, a lizard avatar would be nice, too. And here again, if you're going to jump on me because, "Well we have Dragons, that's good enough!", I remind you of the same points I brought up with the Phoenix:

1. A Dragon is a mythical creature
2. To get a Dragon, you have to pay for it
3. A Dragon really only looks like a Dragon, and it has the ability to spit "fire."

If I wanted to play an iguana, I wouldn't need MASSIVE SIZE, or wings, or fire-spitting abilities, would I? I really like Kell Bengal's reptile patch, if I were going to choose a reference for what I'm talking about here.



And lastly, pigs. We have cows and horses, why not add one more animal to the farm? =P

All suggested before. At this time, it's unlikely they'll be added (if ever) until after the 24-bit update when the present species get "chopped up" and resized. There won't be individual species anymore, but bits and pieces that can be assembled into an appropriate avatar. What those bits and pieces will be is yet to be seen, so who knows?

Aha! Well, that's a LOT better than being limited to these selections! Thanks for the info.
(Also, if they've been suggested before, I guess that means they're popular, eh? ^.~)
