Gestures are a type of inventory item (shown as Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination ) that trigger your avatar to animate, play sounds, and/or emit text chat. Created with a series of steps, gestures can be used for practical purposes or to amuse friends. For example, a cartoon "Squish!" noise accompanied by your avatar falling down. In Second Life culture, many gestures are openly shared because they make social activity more fun.
You can trigger a gesture with:
- Local text chat
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Public voice chat volume
