'Cause everyone needs to waste valuable pre-planning time on a website mapping out their character's clothing changes. :)
http://www.polyvore.com is essentially a collage site. You can take any number of pictures, put them together, and call it a work of art. I call it an internet closet. It has a wide range and variety of clothes, backgrounds, and accessories already loaded to the website, and a feature that allows you to add your own images to your library of items. I will def. be using it to procrastinate, since I love it so much.

Dude, this is so perfect for me, you have no idea.
In my mind, my characters tend to wear the clothes... ALL THE TIME. Sometimes they don't even have realy clothes, they're just moving heads. : \
But I see mostly girl clothes. : [ Two of my MCs are guys.
Oh well, I'm still going to have loads of fun. : ]

If you do a search for 'mens' tons of stuff comes up. Also try putting 'mens' before another search term like 'jeans' or 'polos'. :)

I'm making a set for my first character... He's saying he'll be disappointed if I don't do a good job. : |

This website is WAY too addictive. I spent a good part of the summer here! I didn't think to create sets for my characters, now I'll have to. Thanks for the idea!

Thanks for the add! I'll def. keep an eye on your character sets!
I know, it's terribly addictive. I spend WAY too much time on the site, between all of my accounts (I have a personal account, an RP account, and a NANO account).
