Greetings from Estonia which is a small country in Northern Europe. My name is Tarmo, and main IMVU avatar name is ChicByTrinity (often called either Chic or Trinity among friends) who's also my model character for my IMVU products.
I have had creative urges throughout my entire life. Now I make (compose, produce) music since 1993, and in 2009 I discovered IMVU.
At first I explored IMVU shop and rooms, I didn't create anything significant until July 2011 when I started making avatar skins for women. I had some prior Photoshop experience for this texture work.
At first I created skins for my model Trinity only, but to my surprise many other people started wanting the skins that I create.
This was not all, not enough. I started learning 3DS Max in early August 2011 with the help of IMVU Creator education resources and YouTube video tutorials. It was not easy, many days filled with trying, messing it up, trying again, until a couple of weeks later I figured it out. The rest is history.
I have been creating realistic rooms and furniture since August 2011. Real-life look and feel is my primary goal, as much as it is possible with the tools available.
Unexpectedly, all this fun turned out to be my actual income to support my life and household. I have been my own boss, I don't have to "go to work", this has given me lots of freedom. For this I am truly grateful!
Creator Tips
Always use proper texture sizes and ratios like 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 pixels, always multiplied and divided by 2. Do not go larger than 512x512 pixels. If you just add a random texture that you downloaded, it may be huge (1000-2000 pixels) and pump up the product size/KBs for no reason, even making the texture look worse than 512x512 pixels and below would look like.
Whenever you buy or download textures for your IMVU creations, make sure they're not copyrighted or stolen from other creators! This is very important. Keep your account in a good standing.

PS I just checked what I'm wearing and realized that I currently wear some of your custom realistic skin on my avi and I have to say I get so many compliments-I never put two and two together, I feel so silly, my gf oxGennyxo gifted it to me last year and I will wear no other. You do amazing work. I look forward to checking more of your items out. Thank you for being here and sharing your talent with all of us. Huggggggggs

I've heard so much about you in the last few months and especially the last few weeks. I have been looking at your rooms trying to find one where we can ride our bikes and cars around. A few of my friends have your rooms so I'm looking for something with more of a summer theme as opposed to fall/winter/spring. I'm still looking lol. I was also told about your skins a few days ago, a dear friend sent me some photos of items they found in your shop. I hope to make time soon to browse and shop. Congratulations, your great reputation precedes you. Have a great day
