FAQ


How do you open those animations with the lock on them? Or what is the pink keyhole is?

It the access passes
You can only use them if you bough the access pass and you have to 18 years or old to buy it.



I bought a gift for my friend but I don’t how to give to them.
1. You can not give idem to other people from your inventory.
2. Go there Homepage and look at there wish list and buy if from there.
Remember you can only use bought credits not promo credits-they made just for you.
3. The selected item from the catalog there is an underlined link that states, "Give this product" left side of your moniter, right of "Add to gift list"

Can I sell my items?
No you can't sell items-unless you are a developer.

What IS a boutique? Developers AND nondevelopers can start up their own boutique to resell items that are resellable aka products that are deriveable.

How to start a boutique?

- If you know HTML or CSS or whatever, a website will help.

Items already owned can be checked as well. It takes time but its worth to resell something you want to resell.

In order to know if a product is resellable OR deriveable use this link:

http://www.imvu.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=77777&pid=12345
- Replace 77777 with the product ID
- Replace 12345 with your user ID

In this example I will use my deriveable Nightwear Ruben top:

http://www.imvu.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=233882&pid=133660

Note that 233882 is the product ID of the Nightwear Ruben top and 133660 is my user ID.

To check your USER ID, simply click on the link ACCOUNT on the top left of the page and scroll down to see User ID. I'm not sure what it will show as for nondevelopers but for developers it should say STANDARD DEVELOPER or PRO.

After typing this link into the address bar: http://www.imvu.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=233882&pid=133660

You will notice an orange bar on the top.
It should be saying this.

"Reselling product: 233882 - YES you own this - YES resellable - YES this sale will earn you 38.5 credits"

And yes you have to own the derivable product in order to resell it.

Here is an example of an underiveable product (using the Nightwear Skylo):

http://www.imvu.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=233870&pid=133660

Again 233870 is the product ID.

And on the orange bar it'll say:

"Reselling product: 233870 - YES you own this - NO resellable - NO this sale will not earn you any reseller fee"

The reason its not resellable it means that its not derivable.

Easiest way to find out if you own a product or its resellable or not without checking the Boutique thread or this thread...

When you see this link in your address bar...

http://www.imvu.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=#####

Just add "&pid=12345" after the ##### (replace the # with product ID) and replace the 12345 with YOUR user ID.

Then you put all the link information in your website, be sure to put the image of the product as well. And when somebody buys that product through your link. You will get credits for reselling that item.


Why can I change my promo credits to credits? -this one is for developers.
After sept. 8 th developers not longer change promo credits to credits.

Predits can no longer be converted to credits because of the economy change in Imvu. Tokens will soon be added so that when someone buys your product with their predits, those predits will be changed into tokens. Tokens are used only to buy shoutouts and for submission use only. So now that the converter is gone, people can get more real credits and not predits.

If you want to earn some credits, whether free or not, here's what to do:

1) Try the SPINFREE wheel for free credits once a day.

2) Try the NEW PRODUCTS PAGE for free credits once a day. It gives different amounts of credits so be patient.

3) Enter in a contest. Those are fun, entertaining, and something for you to do and earn some credits.

4) Enter in a lottery hosted by many different users here on Imvu.

5) Trade art for credits. Draw something for someone and maybe that person (whoever likes your art) would trade credits for your art.

6) and many more...

You can't delete recent chats. They don't show anything or do anything to you except showing the names of those who you chatted to the past 10 times.




Linking banners

<a href="yourlinkhere">yourlinktexthere</a>

or if its an image:

<a href="yourlinkhere"><img src="yourimageurlhere"></a>

Or

[url=URL here][IMG]URL here[/IMG][/url]

your Inventory link-this allows to delete stuff. It best if you bookmark it.

How to buy credits by mail

Buy with cash, check or money order

You can now purchase IMVU credits directly from IMVU using Cash, Check, or a Money Order . It's simple, safe, and fast! If you don't have a cell phone or a credit card, this is definitely the best way to get your IMVU credits.

When sending us your Cash, Check, or Money Order, be SURE to include:
1) Your real name
2) Contact phone number in case we cannot complete your transaction
3) Avatar name (this can be yours or who you want to buy for)
4) Your email address (must match the address used in registration)
5) The number of credits (or pack) you wish to buy

Please make the Check or Money Order out to “IMVU” and send to:

IMVU, Inc.
411 High Street
Palo Alto, CA 94301
Attn: Customer Service


Please note the following:

1) IMVU recommends you send your payment by Money Order. This is by far the safest method. What is a Money Order? A money order is a type of check which can only be cashed by the recipient (that's us, IMVU!) You can get a money order at places like the bank, the post office, or your local Walmart. There is a small fee per money order, so we recommend you buy your credits in bulk!

2) If you don't live in the USA, then you can send an international money order. However, the money order you send must be in US dollars . If it is not in US dollars, we cannot accept it. The exchange rate for Credits is: 1,000 Credits = US $1.00.

3) If you just want to send cash, that is OK. However, please know that if your letter is lost in the mail, you will have lost the money you sent.

4) You can only purchase an Access Pass with Cash, Check, or Money Order IF you provide valid proof that you are over 18. Valid proof means sending us a copy of your driver's license, a passport, or a written statement attesting that you are indeed over 18.

All purchases using Cash, Check, or Money Order will be awarded as soon as we receive them. Please remember that the post office usually takes 4-5 days to deliver the mail. Patience is a virtue.



If you had lost your account you need to go to the help tab
http://www.imvu.com/catalog/web_help_center.php
And click on File a Help Request Ticket.


You can give gifts away in a contest by putting something in your gift list and then the contest winner gets the gift once you leave a message on their page and instantly buy it for them.

As for buying credits, all of the payment options for buying credits from IMVU directly can be found here:

http://www.imvu.com/catalog/web_buy_credits.php

Otherwise, here is a list of credit resellers:

IMVUCredits.com - The oldest third party IMVU credit site out there, IMVUCredits uses PayPal to allow payment by any major credit card as well as by eCheck.

http://imvucredits.com/

WaltzingMouse Credits – WaltzingMouse also offers friendly forums with lots of help and advice.

http://www.waltzingmouse.com/

Cassiopeian Credit Sales – Cassiopeia also offers options for purchasing avatar names and try-it-passes. This site’s credit transfers are automatic and can be purchased via PayPal, credit card, SMS, and e-check.

http://www.cassiopean.co.uk/imvu/credits/index.html

Organization Inc. - Their new imvupay service allows users to buy and sell credits instantly. Membership to their secure website is free, but necessary in order to buy or sell credits.

https://www.imvupay.com/

and hopefully the tokens will be added soon.

add this to the promo problem:

Predits can no longer be converted to credits because of the economy change in Imvu. Tokens will soon be added so that when someone buys your product with their predits, those predits will be changed into tokens. Tokens are used only to buy shoutouts and for submission use only. So now that the converter is gone, people can get more real credits and not predits.

Actually you COULD resell an item for your boutique.
