When I was enjoying a good chocolate cake in AWGate, a newbie came over and
asked me where her avatar was! She looked around and couldn't find it.
So why not make your avatar in front of your viewpoint? For users that are
just used to the game variant..
Wait, I just got a better idea! Being able to move the "bird" in 3rd/bird
view by the mouse - up and down, left and right, would be really great for
taking pictures too! And maybe when you're flying around your back, why not
make it possible to fly in front of your avatar and take even close up
pictures? From benieth, above, in front, back, all angles! That would be
really great! Maybe the users could come uo with some tricks, like standing
behind a mirror without the real mirror, just the frame and "flying" the
bird in front of your avatar so it seems like it's in the mirror!
Oh, that would be GREAT! May be easy to loose controll, so a reset button
would be nice too..

*proud of my self for coming up with such an advanced idea.. not normal for
me*

the same idea as mine, but he was first, so.. Btw.. What are the odds?? Hehe

[View Quote] Isn't that possible already?
You can use home/end to change viewpoints or you can use the buttons on the
toolbar.

Yes, but she said it was hard to see that it was her.. She wanted the bird
eye right behind her back...

You can play with the home/end buttons a little.
Can't you find the right position?
Shouldn't be too hard I guess....

Maybe you didn't notice, but I said that *she* couldn't find her that easy..
I think home/end is enough for me, but I just quoted her..
