Three Rings does not put limitations on file size, but we do provide guidelines for avatar creation - these should probably include a section on optimization and speed. Thanks!

My first impression was that load times and frame-rates were very slow - it's ironic that moving so many vectors in 2D is actually more difficult than 3D polygons in "Second Life". I'd strongly recommend that they look at frame rate issues - file size limitations on avatars would be a good step to take. The two custom avatars that I saw used lines instead of fills - this is a HUGE no-no ... lines animate very poorly in Flash for some reason. It's a great idea; I'll check back in later and see if there's any developments. I'd really like to try a couple of avatars. I just checked it out.
