WELL, seems alot of people here don't care for it. xD Nor do they have similar ideals of clutter. c:
Currently, the avi I have? In my honest opinion, I don't see it as clutter at all because for me, clutter is a bunch of items shot together with no theme, no rhyme or reason.
To me, my avatar is very cohesive and smooth. At most, I would remove the scarf and something else for the neck. I honestly don't see it as clutter and at most, most avatars here are really bare.

What do you think clutter is? Why is it so disliked, avis like mine? xD Not to get angry, I just know alot of people see mine as cluttered and ugly, while I find them lovely and controlled. Preferences I suppose. c: <3

Personally, I like your current avi. The skin looks almost liquid, which is really cool.

To me, clutter is exactly what you said- just a bunch of stuff slapped together just for the sake of having it there.

I don't see clutter with your avi. I see a definite theme as far as color and design go.

Thank you, Reyo. c:
Yeah, I've even seen people where they were inch by inch covered but there was a definite ongoing theme. When there's a theme, I don't see it as clutter.

I agree with you. I also see your avatar's theme and it does look well balanced. Personally I really like your current outfit and I don't see anything wrong with it, except maybe the scarf, but the scarf isn't really my favorite pose on Irlandeza's Blessing. However, it is a cute scarf =)

[Blaine]

I agree about the scarf. xD But yes! Same with yours. Yours is busy but lovely~

[8bit]

urs is not cluttered at all lol! i reckon cluttered is when ppl just add random colours and items on

• • • i think clutter is when you can really see the
      the avi under all the stuff
      and it's just like a block of items
      
      i like it!
      but eh it really depends if it's nice or nice. T:
      well if it's just a bunch of times thrown together
      then no
      it burns my face!
      
      i want to clutter
      but i don't have enough items D8

There are many things going on on your avatar and it look great but the head part is kinda clutter. The bottom one is good! I myself like simple avatar, because I don't like stuff to be all over the place and my avatar must have balance.

[Cross]

I really like avatars with mass amounts of items on them...matched or not. I mean, I would prefer to see cluttered avis with rhyme and reason, but it's not required for me to like them.

Simple avatars seem nekkid to me.

[Ashurato]

I like both simple avatars and ones with a lot of items... as long as the items aren't put to haphazardly that I feel like gouging my eyes out.

[Shenandoah]

I'm not a fan of avatars that have way too much going on... Especially when it's stuck together for no other apparent reason than "Ooh, I like this item! Add it!" I tend to use what I call "The Three Rule". Three colors or three items of the same color (usually one each at head, midsection, and feet). Threes tend to balance things out. If one item is smaller, then you should try and balance it out with another. Gives balance to an avatar.

[Jurinjo]

Things become cluttered to me in two ways:
Firstly avatars are in this invisible "box". When the positive space (filled) overwhelms the negative (empty space) then I feel it is cluttered.

Secondly is like you said. If an avatar is thrown together with barely a thread of reason then it feels cluttered.

[Madam Kira]

Cluttered avi's to me are a bunch of expensive items thrown together, even if they do match. Also those that don't match at all. I'm more into the simple avi's, I usually dislike a lot of items on an avatar.

[Sushi]

I enjoy cluttered avatars as long as they flow, or have a color scheme. xD If it's just a bunch of colors/items together, that clash with one another, I'm not a huge fan.

But, I do enjoy yours. It's Red, White, Green, and Blue. There isn't just one random purple item, or something like that, so it looks good to me.

[Corovignh]

I don't think you've seen our Clutter Claus, but yours is certainly not so. As the ones above me have said, there's a lot going on, but I wouldn't call it cluttered. It flows nicely together, the black and red stripes accenting a lot of the little details in it. And then the green adds a different surface. I like it a lot. >u<
