    I knew a girl once who had a similar chin, and she was very unhappy about it. Had she been wealthy, she surely would have had plastic surgery done. She was human and she wasn't disgusting.

    I haven't been able to log in yet (server down) to create a new avatar, but if this is the default look, I agree that an average looking face would be more appropriate. However, if this is merely a change brought about by taking a slider to the extreme, I think it is great.

    I still remember one experience that I had in SotA with fondness: in a long ago release I came upon a female avatar. Her back was to me, and she had the same lithe figure as any other avatar. Then she turned, and she had a face like an old crone! It was fantastic.

    It reminded me of a real life experience I had in the lovely Italian city of Milano. I felt shabby wearing my jeans and gym shoes, because the natives were all dressed up, the ladies wearing high heels and expensive clothes. One woman had her back to me, and I could see that she was an older woman, because the skin around her neck, arms and shoulders was wrinkled. Then she turned her head, and to my surprise, her face looked like it belonged on a twenty-year-old. The wonder of plastic surgery!

    Sorry for digressing!

    This was not meant to offend anyone by the look and yes the sliders are off. But I really want to focus on the skin tones on the char models. It makes black people look more like shadow people or something out of fantasy (reminds me of dark iron dwarfs from wow...). Just wish the skin shads were more accurate. The same goes for the other shades of skin tone, but this I just though was the most extreme.

    You can customize the character you know. Actually give it a try and take a look before screaming blanket, unhelpful statements.

    Can make your character look as nice or as weird as you want. Kind of the point of character customization.
