I'm not sure what you mean. How tiny are you talking about, and what is it used for?

Well, never played secondlife, but I thnk It's a question of finding body parts the right size, and applying them to your avatar. but there might be a "set charachter size"option in the program.

I know what Artemiy is talking about. On Second Life you have youe Avatar, which is your character. There are some people wth avatars that are much smaller than usual, I've seen a squirrel avatar that really is as small as a squirrel. I believe Artemiy is asking if anyone knows how to make these avatars, which I'm sure just takes alot of coding and invisi prims. Unfortunatley, Artmeiy, I don't know how to myself, since I'm no good with coding in SL x.x Though I hope I've made your question more understandable.

Making a tiny avatar is actually not much harder than making a regular avatar...

The main thing you need however, is an animation overrider with soime 'tiny' animations in it. The Kage ones work pretty well and I THINK the creator sells an AO for tinies for about 500 linden.

After that it's a case of sticking some body parts onto yourself (as with all non-human avatars) and maybe add the occasional invisiprim if your base avatar is still a little larger than the body parts you're attaching.... though invisiprims are best avoided as much as possible because they have 'interesting' effects on your surroundings appearance.
