Hi, whenever I try to put a backdrop on my avatar it messes up her hair. What can I do? This has been happening since joining yesterday.

It also messes up her skirt and makes them look like pants.

You can change the order of wearable layering in your wardrobe (eg.which items appears on top of another item). So you just need to move the backdrop to the bottom of all the wearables you are wearing. To do so, just simply click on the name of the backdrop and drag it to the bottom.

Thanks so much! I was getting quite frustrated.

Also! Just so you know, some of the newer backgrounds are intended to be used in the beta wardrobe so you can get HA-less things (they lack the cutout for the HA), it's something some users like to do.

Don't panic if you try a background and you suddenly turn into floating eyeballs and hair. Just repeat the process with the background of dragging it down to the bottom of the list in the beta wardrobe.
