vBAvatars lets your members create a custom avatar for themselves, using clothing and body parts purchased from a shop.

Uses
If you have ever played Gaia Online or used similar sites in the past, you know how much fun it can be to dress up an avatar of your own. vBAvatars brings this to your vBulletin forum, with a powerful image creation system that lets members try on and purchase a number of different body parts as well as clothes.

Hmm, I'm unable to replicate that - is your Forum URL setting set up correctly? i.e. no trailing slash.

Can you please explain how to adjust points based on what users already have?

Also, bug perhaps: manage category > usergroup enable for administrator not saving even though it says saved successfully

Is there a way to link the points to the vB Credits mod you guys have?

Thanks. I'm a bit confused. How is anyone supposed to use the avatar feature with default 0 points and no ability to buy with points?

I also added max_input_vars = 15000 to php.ini and restarted apache, same problem

PS: how do I *edit* user points? I added 100 for myself for testing purpose yesterday but want to remove it
