 Description  « Hide
The menu for upload animations doesn't have enough options for the hands. My suggestion for more options: point both, point left, peace both, peace left, salute left.

It would also be nice if we could change the priority of the animations *after* they've been uploaded, so long as we have modify permissions on them. No more "freezing animations!"

It would also be nice if those hand animations worked consistently, but that's another issue :P

I think adding hand pointing options is like putting a band aid on a severed leg.

We need the ability to actually animate fingers. simple.

WarKirby: A fair point. The usefulness of that is obvious; the problem is, who is going to do the work for it? Adding a few more hand options is trivial, and helps some. Adding the ability to animate hands requires a bit more effort, to understate it.

Ana: I'll check this out. I think it might also be possible to have two menus, one menu to choose the pose for each hand. Would that be desirable?

After some preliminary investigation, this issue is not as trivial as I had thought.

1. The left and right hand poses seem to be defined together, so selecting two separate poses for the hands would require a fair amount of work. It would possibly require modifying the format that poses are stored internally (since there's only one "slot" for the hand pose right now).
2. There is no indication that Peace and Salute poses even exist for the left hand or for both hands. I don't know what tools LL have used to create the hand poses, what format they are stored in, etc. Some information from LL would help tremendously here. *Hint hint* to any Lindens reading this :)

I agree with the fingers. We need non mirrored arms and we need feet that aren't flippers either.

@Jacek Antonelli
two menus, one for each hand, would be a perfect solution with the same option on each and if LL added a few more option would be awesome.

New images of the upload menu for animations! As you can see the options are very reduced.
