It's a normal afternoon on Whyville. You log on, check your Y-mail, maybe take a quick look at Akbar's.

Then you head to your favorite chatroom. Maybe it's the Sportzplatz, or the Beach, or the Airfield. When you get there, what do you see?

If it's a chatroom like most others, you might see: chairs, walls, avatars, maybe a couch or two -- wait, what was that last one? No, the one before the couch.

Avatars. Caucasian avatars. Yes, in most chat rooms in Whyville, everyone wears Caucasian skin.

Now here's another question: Why do we all subject ourselves to one skin color when there are so many choices? Take me for example. I'm a pixie. That's right, I have purple skin -- got a problem with it?

Many of you probably think I look weird. In fact, many of you probably think anybody with an unusual skin tone looks weird. But on Whyville, unusual skin tones are out of the ordinary, even though we can all look like just about anybody or anything we want!

Well, I'm here to tell you about all the races in Whyville, and encourage more diversity. Caucasian parts are the most popular, so I'm not even going to get into those. BUT how about some of these:

Pixie
QUALITY PIXIE HEAD -- 25 clams -- head
PIXIE HOODIE -- 25 clams -- shirt
PIXIE GURL -- 25 clams -- shirt
PIXIE DUST -- 25 clams -- shirt

Fairy

FAIRY PRINCESS -- 30 clams -- shirt
Green Head (not lettuce) -- 35 clams -- head

Goth
A Great Goth Head -- 25 clams -- head
**Gothic_Makeup** -- 25 clams -- make-up
Gothic Black Dress -- 30 clams -- shirt

Blushing

BLUSHING AGAIN -- 25 clams -- shirt
BLUSHING GREY HOODIE -- 30 clams -- shirt

Stores
For pixie, fairy, gothic and blushing skin tones, I strongly recommend visiting the store ATTITUDE AVENUE. Although most of their face parts are Caucasian, if you keep scrolling you will come to some great shirts in other skin tones. Also, for shirts that provide Black and tanned bodies, visit ??MAJOR ATTITUDE??. For other face accessories, visit ATTITUDE FACES, which has ears, chin lines, make-up and more for other skin tones.

Off To Color Myself... erm... a different color,
