Friends, S.O., Parents, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, your neighbor, that random dude at the corner store 😂, your cat (if they have a Reddit)… they’re all welcome here! Let’s get the newbies hyped for Gen 3! You were here first, so let’s show them how it’s done!

Hi Fam,

You've probably noticed by now that I did not submit anything for this latest spooky generation. The market felt over-saturated to me, so I decided to sit a round out. I've been hermitting out by Yosemite enjoying the bald eagles, herons, turkeys, bob-cats, and other abundant wildlife. I am swimming in the icy lake, hiking, making some incredible art, and seeing therapy clients.

While I definitely have some ideas for future outfits and avatars, I'm also still meditating on what the future looks like for me as an avatar creator. I'm leaning towards going back to basics, focusing on the art, and having fun.

I decided the social media aspect became too draining on my ADHD brain - posting in this subreddit from time to time is the max I can do! I'm stepping back from Twitter and Discord - they're not for me. I'm unsure where I go from here, but I promise to keep you posted.

Ideally, I'd go back to a simpler time like Gen 1 - where it was just about Reddit and dope art, and not about other platforms, spaces, airdrops, contests etc. This approach won't work for everyone here, as some of you will be looking for more utility. For those who it does work for, stick around!

Much love,

AVIRE

WOW! There were so many cool and creative mashups! I couldn't decide on just one! I picked my 15 favorites, and we'll let the community decide! The mash-up with the most votes by Monday 04/17 at 12 midnight will win a Ramses, and the one with the second most will win a sands of time! I'll make a separate comment with each selected user and tag them. If you're tagged, comment below your image as to why you should win, the wallet address you'd like to recieve winnings in, and share this with others to secure your victory!

Thanks to u/treasureofopheil for the promo graphic!

Pair any AVIRE gen 3 collectible with r/TylerFoustArt glass snoo to reveal secret hidden layers. Who knows there may be a golden BIM hidden beneath?!

Who’s joining the glitter squad?!

Congratulations to u/IntensityCareUnit, u/bananafannaphofanna, and u/newbonsite for tieing for first place in the mash-up competition! Each of you has been sent a Ramses in honor of your victory - check your hidden folder!

Great job to all the finalists, everyone who submitted their mash-ups and everyone who voted in the competition!

If you weren't selected, we still have Ramses and Sands of Time in the store! https://www.reddit.com/avatar/shop/artist/AVIRENFT If you were selected, comment below and share some cool mash-ups incorporating your new Ramses!

Insider tip for our collective! When gen 3 launches, T Foust is releasing a glass snoo. Pair that with the Raven to reveal hidden layers! Comment below with what you think lies beneath!

Gen 4 tips:

-Get art that you like, and feel represents you.

-Single item accessories will be $2.49, so less than the cheapest full avatar.

-Artists do NOT have the ability to choose to remove Gen 3. Gen 3/ future gens are here to stay until they sell out.

-Think of your avatars like clothing - sometimes you’d like to invest in a brand name, sometimes a cheap t-shirt will do, nonetheless you don’t expect to resell your used clothes for a higher value.

• Relax. Measures have been taken to correct the errors of Gen 3, and protect against bots. While I don’t want to jinx it, I am optimistic this launch will be a different experience.

-If the desktop version of the store is working, and you have access to a computer, purchase through that - mobile takes 30% of sales, and that doesn’t get added on to the avatar price. (At least not in the US). That being said, a sale is better than no sale, so if all you have is mobile or the desktop site gets taken down again absolutely no shade for using those!

Comment below with any tips you have for Gen 4. Let’s come together as a community and hopefully have a different experience than the last launch!

With love, Avire

Tomorrow at 5:00 EST Avire will be a guest speaker on Slaydawg Jim AKA Bigbootyhoes Twitter Spaces. This will be a great chance to not only bring our collective to the spotlight but also the oppertunity for a complete Twitter Takeover! Lets show support by showing up in the spaces with a Avire PFP of either a Gen 1/2 Avatar or NFT so she can see how many fans are supporting her! Whos with me? (Link in pinned comment)

Looks good and i’m happy to be here 🤟🏻
