IMVU Info

Before you go racing off downloading IMVU you might want to know some information and specifics about it before you download.

IMVU stands for Instant Messaging Virtual Universe, a long name huh?

When you make a free account, your user name will have "Guest_" before it. You are able to get rid of it by buying a non guest account.

You might be wondering if your computer can run IMVU. Hopefully I can tell you if you are able to. Almost any computer can run IMVU! So if your computer was made in the last 5 years you should be fine!

So why is IMVU so good?
IMVU is great, because it is not just an IM client / game, it allows you to recreate yourself in a digital universe. There is so much you can customize with your personal character, in fact one could spend hours modifying the way they look.

Unlike most normal IM programs such as MSN, AIM and Skype, you can play games in style. On IMVU there are a number of games and roll playing scenarios that you can take place in with other people. Other people from all over the world!

Meeting new friends and hanging out with existing ones
The most fantastic thing about IMVU is: Every body wants to be your friend! Everyone is friendly and it just has a fantastic vibe.
