How to Design an IMVU Profile
A profile page on IMVU is your personal site and displays your content to other members of this social networking community. When you first create your profile, IMVU gives you a page that has a preset style, but you can change these features using the tools in your account. Design page elements, including the background, panel headers and text colors to customize your profile as you prefer.

Tips & Warnings
Get an image URL for your background by bringing up a free picture host, such as TinyPic or Postimage.org, in your browser. Click the "Open" or "Browse" button, select your file and follow the on-screen instructions to upload your photo. Copy the address that automatically displays at the end of the process.
A panel on your IMVU profile is a particular section, such as "My Groups," that contains your content.
