It was quite cool to click on them and invite them for a chat, then have them accept your invitation and not know what to talk to them about. Those tabs would have a handful of users and their avatar showing on your homepage. It was also common to have various tabs that encouraged socialization, such as “Online now”, “Meet new people”. I do miss reading up drama from time to time, though. Maybe they’ll bring this part back for bragging rights? Who knows, but I like my privacy with my inbox right now. It was really fun, not very private, but it was fun! 😀 You had a good feeling when you left someone a gift because everyone could see it. People would visit your page, would look at your messages and everything posted on the homepage. I do remember a private option, but private messages through inbox were extremely rare. The way people would design their homepages in general was code-wise simple, but the style to pimp up the homepage with glittery images and stickers was very common, borrowed from old, popular websites such as, ,, etc.īoth females and males would do some type of personalization to their homepages, because the inbox was… public! That’s right, the whole was public for everyone to see. They were highly efficient too! This was until more and more people started creating their banners and naturally, as the IMVU community grew, so did the developer/creator community and gradually people lost interest both in supporting developers through banners and in checking those banner ads. That’s right, a small image that had a direct link to a developer’s catalog. Homepages were HUGE! Because every user would have to buy going to the browser catalog, homepage activity was huge! People would design their homepages with HTML/CSS, add noticeable backgrounds, express their creativity through stickers (you could earn thousands of dollars a month just through stickers back then).īecause homepages were so popular, users would showcase their support for their favorite developers through banners. That means that every single item in the catalog went through a price increase 2 times because of IMVU’s increased fee. Interesting fact: IMVU increased the prices on the IMVU markup fee for every single product 2 times.

This was also because IMVU fees in the derivation chain were lower. It was very common to see products under 399 credits and the developers would still earn credits.

Because they were being featured on the first pages with priority over others, they would make a lot of sales, however, products in the past were cheaper.

Big websites with a great reputation would only work with pro creators.

IMVU did not pay developers directly, instead, people would sell credits directly to users.

Nowadays the same thing happens to a much lesser degree, mainly because being pro or being a known creator is no big deal, since there are thousands of amazing creators. Users would message pro developers to show their genuine admiration, begging for gifts was not yet that common. Because this was such a hard thing to obtain and only a select few would meet all the criteria, users browsing the shop would admire pro developers a lot, to the point of worshipping them. Other perks that came with being a pro developer: I remember back in the day wanting to decorate my UI with Christmas-themed UI skins.

This was an awesome feature because it allowed you to customize the skin of IMVU. One important difference was that the IMVU version of 2006 had an inventory section for “UI Skins”. The inventory was not yet integrated into the chat window. The chat was a separate window like in the picture above and lo and behold, the IMVU cafeteria is a classic room, but back in the day, it was both really awesome and very boring due to the lack of rooms on IMVU. It’s very strange compared to what we have today, but back then, there weren’t many items in the shop and people would keep small friends list. The messenger itself had two categories like in the picture above, one for “buddies” and one for “inventory”. The IMVU client was a simple program much like other messenger application from around that time (MSN, Yahoo messenger). I had many memories of old stuff and I tried researching to provide images that could accurately describe what it used to look like back in 2006 and the following years.

Note: The following article is written from my own experience. If you’re curious to know how IMVU used to be back in my time, keep on reading (or just look at the pictures :D). I joined IMVU in 2006 and everything back then was much different! From the way the client looked, how shopping was done and even what kind of upgrades you could buy for your avatar. Have you ever wondered how IMVU used to be over 10 years ago? 15 years ago? We’ll dive deep into it! 😀
