Avatar Marketplace

opening the avatars menu from the QM launches the explore tab, rather than the last tab i had opened. remember this the same way you remember my microphone state.

Issue: With the AVM Update to the Avatars Tab in the Main Menu all the previous options were moved to "My Avatars". My Avatars is missing quite a lot of features compared to live: No more "compact view" You can no longer sort the different categories (e.g. Date Added, Last Updated, Name, Recently Used, Performance) Minimizing the navigation panel removes the categories all together instead of making them icons In general the new Avatars UI feels very weird and not coherent with the rest of the Menu. Expected Behaviour / Suggestion: These missing features should be reimplemented to prevent this being a regression compared to live. "My Avatars" should have imo just looked like it currently does on live with a "Purchased" category edited to it. Currently it just looks really out of place. Attachments: Here are screenshots comparing the two:

I don't think its a wise move to have an A-Z row, it will just lead to people putting dots or whatever at the beginning of their Avatar's names. (see pic) Or we just see people naming their Avatar "Aaron" or something just to get more clicks by being at the top of it all the time.

The my avatars page in the avatars category is different to the rest of the UI. The font is different, button are different styling, and elements are incorrectly sized

Allow us to add listings to a wishlist for avatars we would be interested in buying at a later date.

It can be important (particularly in games) to know what avatar people are using. The ability to preview avatars allows people to temporarily "change" avatar without others knowing, which opens the potential for cheating in games. Please add a setting to worlds to disable avatar previewing.

Add a gifting feature that allows users to buy avatars for other users. Though this idea was already discussed in the FAQ thread in the forum ( https://ask.vrchat.com/t/avatar-marketplace-faq-for-sellers/43555 ) Q: What about gifting avatars? (Asked by @Hammey) A: Not yet, but it’s a popular feature request and we’d like to do it. , I will post this as a reminder and voting place.

In the respin of the avatar menu the compact menu option has been removed. It's still available for the world menu, however. The compact menu is crucial for us with many uploaded avatars, at least as long as we lack a proper search feature. Please do not remove it. First two screenshots are open beta, last two are stable. P.S. Another, albeit very minor, regression is that I can no longer tell how many avatars are in my "Uploaded" category on the side tab. It's also no longer possible to switch avatar category/folder when using the 4 columns/row mode when collapsing the left-hand side bar.

the same avatar using a simple texture swap have different avatar listings. these should be either included with the avatar as texture swaps OR under the same listing as selectable styles

I noticed that the behavior of favorite avatars outside of the first favorites category were changed, and it feels a bit harder on those that used to have VRC+ as you're no longer able to move avatars that you previously categorized if you no longer have VRC+. This change could be seen as a somewhat predatory one, especially to those that are used to the original behavior and can't or don't want to pay for VRC+ again, considering that you're completely removing a feature that was free and making it a paid one. I ask that you please restore the original functionality of this feature.
