I currently am using the top center base mouth as that one is the only nice looking large smile. (there are other nice looking smiles, but they are not large in my opinion.)

I drew some to give a good idea of what would be amazing new smiles for avatars:

while this is your aesthetic (re: your BJD eyes posts), they go against the semi-realistic style subeta has going, so I don't see these being used by the general populace, sorry. No support.

edit: striking out my opinion

I would actually use them since I prefer the cartoony style, but unfortunately it seems most of subeta doesn't like it. All I can do is use the to death lol.

I support this because Subeta doesn't always stick to semi-realistic styles. None of these qualify as nice large smiles, though.

There is nothing realistic about the human avatars to me, and there’s hardly anything cartoony about human avatars to you, so let’s just agree to disagree.

Yay! highfive One question: what leads you to the conclusion that we who like cartoony are a minority? Did someone fill out a poll where people could vote on what they like more for avatar features, realistic or cartoony?

Yay! Just so we're clear, you're talking about the items you linked as not being “nice smiles”, not my examples right? xD

No poll, just general observation. For the most part, the wearables that come out are serious and realistic especially backgrounds and eyes are always small and mouths are usually the same. People dress accordingly. The large mouths and eyes that I've saved for and bought I hardly ever see others wearing them regularly (though I guess that can be said for any wearable given how many of them are on site). On the other hand, people might not use them because there aren't many to begin with, making it seem more unpopular than it potentially is.

ramble about large eyes and mouths under a spoiler cuz it's getting long I still remember the joy of getting my hands on and is also pretty unconventional but one of my favorites. And I really liked , and when they first came out. I also collected

As for the mouths you drew I love them, the second one is my favorite, it has a lot of personality to it. For existing larger mouths, I've used more times than I can count. is also awesome.

eta: is on the smaller side but still very cartoony to me and one of my favorites. I layer on top to get the general shape from the doubloon but without the missing and gold teeth.

I love winterberry robin so much!! They really should do more color varieties of that one, or of large eyes in general. >.>

Color is really important to me. So are eyebrows! Unless I'm doing a dress up of an OC or a cosplay I like my eyes to be the same color as my natural eye color, which is brown. And eyebrowless so that I can apply as my eyebrow shape.

I think the number of eyes available + the poor quality art of the larger base eyes is why we don't see a lot of avatars with larger eyes. If there was more choice or even just color variety I think we would see A LOT of people wearing stuff like for example.

I like the lip-biting one, I don't think we have an expression like that onsite.

I'd like to see more expressive mouths too, it's fun to figure out how to use it when a Subeautique line has an unusual mouth. Honestly Delish mouths, while beautiful, are getting pretty samey.

Yes, I meant the existing items I linked to. Sorry for the confusion. I really like some of your examples, especially the one in the HA image which is second in the top row. I wouldn't wear it myself on a humanoid figure HA, though, because I usually wear -

And a lot of the items we can wear with these backgrounds aren't serious and realistic. Two examples -

If we really want to we can add accessories like these -

We don't even have to wear a head that looks human -

So, I honestly don't see a problem with having a wider range of cartoony facial features for people who want them.
